LEGO Marvel : Thor: Ragnarok Minifigures
So, this is my first set of figures where I have not given a f**k about making it by release, and in case you missed the video I posted on YouTube, this is going to be how I do things now. Anyway, there were definitely a couple of challenges with this set, but the biggest one was time consumption. Gladiator Hulk took so much work. That was definitely my biggest takeaway here: big-figs with detail take forever.
Alright, here we go:
Thor:
●Heavily modified/painted sleepy hairpiece.
●Sword blades were made from old credit cards.
●Torn cape goes over the torso post (obviously) but rests in between the torso & belt piece.
●I do have the helmet painted up for him, but that’ll be in the showcase video.
Gladiator Hulk:
●AH MY GOD THIS BIG-FIG TOOK SOOOOOO LONG TO MAKE.
●Everything on this big-fig was fully repainted except for his eyes and mouth.
●Various 3D elements: straps, straps, and more straps.
●Sculpted waist armor cape/armor thing.
●Heavily modified/painted LEGO war hammer.
●Custom battle axe made from a bar piece, connector, and a couple pieces of styrene.
Loki:
●Seriously modified helmet w/ sections of a Wonder Woman hairpiece glued in. Had to carefully cut out the top and back of the helmet, and I actually had to wreck two Wonder Woman hairpieces. One for the top, and one for the lower half. Honestly didn’t expect this mod to work lol.
●Face is from LEGO. Surprisingly good likeness to Tom Hiddleston.
●Modified/painted BrickForge Dress Daggers.
Valkyrie:
●Face is from a LSW Freemaker Adventures character (I forget which).
●Modified BrickForge Gladius sword, and for some reason it took me 4 tries to paint properly.
Hela:
●Pretty straight forward figure, cut out the upper half of the front of LEGO’s helmet, and a fully painted face to match the likeness of Cate Blanchett. Had a great time painting this one though. Loved the costume, just wish they would have developed her character more. Hela was too black and white for me. This isn’t relevant.
Alright, there ya go! That’s it! I’m done! Justice League is next! (probably)
Thanks guys.
