Steampunk-ish Minifigs

Post by Bonn-o-Tron » Tue Jan 29, 2008 10:42 pm

After I was recently introduced to the steampunk genre, (thanks to this board) I fell in love, and decided to take a crack at making a bit of my own minifigs. Although regrettably enough, they turned out a bit less steampunk than I expected, but they're still pretty post-apocalyptic-ish.

Here's the link to the pictures.


Also, to those who feigned interest in my mini-series I'm working on: I'm made some progress and the first few comics should be coming soon!

That isn't public yet. So says Bricklink when I try to use that link there.

Should be good now. I'm guessing that it just takes time to go public, seeing as how I just uploaded them. Could anyone confirm this?

Thanks. If there's anything I learned from looking at all those steampunk MOCs, it's that elastics are a fantastic thing to have for making minifigs.

Very nice. How did you mount those binoculars on the helmets? It makes a great gas mask design :)

Kickass! I especially love the sniper rifle. All very Steam Punk!

Very well done, I never thought of using rubber bands on minifigs before. I think I'll try my hand at this.

Is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me?

It's the helmet on this guy. I couldn't find the actual helmet, so I grabbed a picture of that minifig. Theres one round stud on the front, so you can pretty much slap whatever you want on there.

Yeah, I never even thought of using them before, but as I mentioned, I saw them utilized in some pretty awesome ways, so I decided to try messing with them.
