spongebob squarepants' patrick star

by tanotrooper (Minifig MOC's)

Hi all,

The lego version is way too skinny and doesnt really look like him. From the episode with spongebob's seahorse, here's patrick star! (made him for the cartoon contest)

this is what happens if you ask him to build a stable...

how I made him:

1) I collected reference pics.
2) I searched for a nice pose.
3) I took clay and made his belly and back.
4) It came off, so I needed the baking clay.
5) The fimo was on the torso, so I had to boil him 4 times.
6) Left arm was also boiled twice, and replaced by new fimo arm, wich I    baked.
7) I used the hairdryer to harden the left hand, belly, back, hips and legs.
8) Some broke because they were a bit hard, had to glue them.
9) I used a cut right bar to use as a swivel point (wich actually failed...)
10) I baked all the other parts including head...
11) I glued some things back.
12) I give every part its base colour.
13) general painting...
14) using black paint to use as the "black marker cartoon" lines.
15) painted the flower pattern
16) retouched (french :P) the flower pattern.
17) Painted his hammer and plank (also baked)
18) cut a nail by hand for the top
19) inserted nail in plank
20) put everything together.

And all in less than a week. (1 day of really hard work)

If you made him for the cartoon contest you better post him on the contest entries forum. Good job by the way with your Patrick it looks really nice!


Everything has an advantage and disadvantage, and everything has its place it life... especially people without status...

Its nice, but it juts looks like a sculpture of Patrick, and not lego like. All of the key elements of a lego figure are covered up by clay. Is he even jointed?
