mini/smile Love those figs Jampot.

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Great! Time for a bunch more:

The Master of Wyvendale. Not a king, though he dresses like one, the Master rules Wyvendale as fairly as he thinks is necessary. He's kind, but inept and can be easily swayed. The sword sets alight in battle, but since he's never seen battle he doesn't know that.

Two heroes of Wyvendale. Wyvendale is famous for being a town for heroes, both magic-using and not (though wizards of all kinds do dwell in Wyvendale). Here we have a man of the forest, a notable hero who has saved many other towns from bandits and monsters, and a wizard's apprentice.

The lazy wizard. A lazy wizard from Wyvendale whose name is always on the tip of peoples' tongues when they see him, but they can never quite remember what it actually is. Nobody sees him doing much magic except riding about on his broom and making ale bottles float with his mind.

Malector and Lord Talhoof. Talhoof (right) is the voracious ruler of the dark realm of Tuskwood, and Malector is the dark wizard who acts as his advisor. Both are cunning and intelligent, and each tries and fails to manipulate the other. Talhoof's teeth are made of iron.

A Knight of Arcady, Sir Vinddolf doesn't take his job seriously enough. He's also never slain any monsters or battled anyone except a few drunk vikings and an angry chicken coop. The coop itself, not the chickens inside.

Until recently he worked for Vladek, but now this Rogue Knight is roaming the lands, living like a bandit.

Viscount Squid. No backstory for this guy, except that he's an intergalactic gangster.
http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3799/11521177925_196b47bf75_c.jpg

Tristan Test. Son of Rocket Racer, Tristan Test wants to become the next Champion Racer but his main goal is to find his master, who went missing some years ago…

Phew! I've uploaded a lot of figs today. I should probably take a break for a while.

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

I like the squid a lot.
The combination of outfit and head is quite brilliant, as the green base and red accents complement the squid head delightfully.

I like the idea of the lazy wizard.

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Well, Viscount Squid is a pretty-unsubtle nod to you, man, so I'm glad you like him!

NON PURIST!!

A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

They are custom minifigs, which means you aren't a purist.

When I was younger I cut some bricks and as a result to this day have some handy stuff for building, but they were most, if not all, just poles and stuff, never ever my minifigs. #PURIST

That paper on Batman's torso looks ugly. The lines aren't even.

Try worldlingo.com.  It's still a computer but their results are better.

Man, I know the feeling when your post doesn't get noticed, but please don't quote your own image on the same page. Only bump like that if it's got lost about 3 pages back.

I like the guy on the far left - the combination of pieces seems to work well. Where did the guy on the far right's torso come from?

As for the unnamed guy, I wouldn't do any 'Indian' stereotypes. You might want to check this out. It's a name generator. Click on Kreatyve and it'll give you names that have weird, cookey spellings.

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Sure, i'll watch out with bumping the next time mini/wink

He'se not indian but that's the only thing i/Google could come up with, the rest of them are unnamed. Far right one is from this guy.

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Nice. I always wanted that one…

Does anyone have any thoughts on how I could make a Chima beaver? I have a great idea for an animation, but since LEGO haven't released a beaver minifig I'll need to make my own. Ideas anyone?

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Maybe try looking for other figures that have to do with beavers. The pants could probably be from a different Chima figure.

Speaking about Chima, here's two figures i made with some stuff from my Chima polybags i got as a freebie at Lego World 2013.

Chewbacca head?

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Maybe do what END films suggested, use a Chewbacca head, but also do a bit of customization to fit the needs for the Chima beaver head.

Re: *The Official Minifigure Critique Thread*

Dang, I don't have Chewbacca, and I really can't afford to be eBaying stuff right now. It's a good idea though, and I'll bear it in mind for the future.

Any other thoughts?
