Legolas and Gimli

by Blackninjatom (Minifig MOC's)


This is my Legolas. I have been working on him for the last two to three weeks. The hairpiece is a molded Qui-Gon-Jin hair with painted, elf ears added to the sides, and his knife is a pirate sword with the basket trimmed off and and the handle has been added to making it curved. Decals are my own design.

Hope you like it.

Wow! Very nice! One of the only things that I see wrong with it is the sword color. Maybe you could paint the blade? And the nose doesn't look right to me... but hey, that's just me!

Just a suggestion. I really like the ear idea...it looks great!

Amazing custom. Great parts, and clever putting ears on that hairpiece! The only think that I don't like is the face design, especially the nose like Muiredach said.

Great work!


I'M ON FIRE!!

Pretty decent, but minifigs with noses make me wince a bit. That's just me, nice job with the hair piece and ears.

yes, he's right, the declas are good without the face....... because the nose just looks not good on a minifigs head.....

Thankyou for your opinions. I will fix the face decal and sword as soon as I can and get a picture up.

I too am one of the people who doesn't like the nose, just seems odd on a minifig.

Can't wait 'till you fix him up a bit, you might need to move the mouth up just a hair once the nose is out of there though, as it may leave quite a gap between the eyes and mouth.

Great work on the Torso decal and the hair!

Did I fix Legolas? I removed the nose and painted the sword blade gray, and I finally I finished Gimli. Unfortunately the helmet doesn't come down far enough and the beard kinda sticks out a bit, but I think the decals and pony tail came out good. The arm and body decals are mine, but the face(decal) is a Santis face from Knights Kingdom painted brown(photoshop).

Hope you like it.

i like the fact that you used a flesh head for gimli, and a light flesh head for legolas, it's the little thinks which make the world go round!


by Blackninjatom on Sun, 11/12/2006 - 07:30
Thanks for your comments. I am glad I fixed Legolas and that you like Gimli. Actually what I meant to say when I painted Gimli's head is I copied the face through photoshop and colored it brown there and printed it off as a decal.

Sorry about the bad description.

Very Cool i reaily like them both Great Work Keep it up.

Taking a nose off a decal is like taking off an itchy turtle neck. At least that's what they tell me. Legolas looks great now and Gimli is a worthy addition. Is that a mail decal on his arms?

Thank you for all the feedback! Yes, Pharazon, those are chain mail decals on Gimli's arms. By the way do you think brown arms would look better?

If I may answer that question: No these are just fine!


by Blackninjatom on Wed, 11/15/2006 - 09:03
OK, thanks.

Ahh, I just realized how stupid my comment was.  And I think the color arms you have are fine.

Well ain't that comment warm and cudely. Unless you'r blind they are both the smae custom. For future references, try to leave out the negatives. Sure thats your opinion, but the creator may find that offensive. As for me this is the best legolas I have ever seen ( if not the only ). Gimli on the other hand, well the helmet doesn't suit the decal. I hope to see more lord of the rings customs, as I think the movies and books were awsome. Although the movie could have had more carnage, I at least thought it'd get a MA+ rating. But I guess they had to cut some corners so it'll be suitable for the kiddies. One last thing is this all of your lotr? the three hunters, well at least the two.

Iron Alchemist if you like LOTR customs you should see my ringwraith,it may not be all that great to you but i love it.http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2156597


Those who tell me I am too old for legos must die a horrible death by the hand of a custom minifig. >:D

by Blackninjatom on Tue, 12/12/2006 - 09:58
I have Aragorn (whose face isn't very good) and a Gondor soldier, with custom helmet and decal. I have cast uruk-hai and made a bunch of low quality lotr customs using authentic lego pieces (meaning about everybody. I guess I will post Aragorn and the Gondor soldier sometime soon.

Here is Aragorn and my Gondor soldier that I mentioned earlier.
 I am not pleased with Aragorn's face though. The helmet is my own cast and decal is alos mine.

Ya Aragorns face is messed up, but other than thaat i like all your customizations. Espessially the whole elf ear thing and Gimlis ponytail. Very nice hope to see more.
