"The light of our new sun scattered through the hallways, ever changing like a kaleidoscope with the rotation of our generation ship. Command had issued all settlers to ready up as we approached the planet they named Atlas: the world-carrier.
My family was among those who had signed up to colonize the new world and extract what good it had to offer. The maneuver was a one off. We only had one shot to get all the necessities down to the planet while the generation ship would use its gravitational pull to sling onwards in space.
A vanguard party had been dispatched years before we entered Atlas' orbit to prepare the landing site for our arrival and given green light for the settlers nine months before the day we were to set foot onto the soil of our new home. There were approximately thirty thousand people to mount landing craft on the day and as we felt the dropship detach from the mothership, every single soul on board knew that our generations-long voyage had found its end."
Proud and relieved to finally introduce you to ATLAS, a collaboration hosted in The Workshop, that went up and down many mountains until I decided to do all parts myself.
It was a learning experience, certainly for me, and while not as originally envisioned, it was successfully completed in the end and I want to thank the tagged folks for their input and their presence that kept me going to the finish line.
This scene, and all to follow in this series, was captured entirely in camera. Screen background with complementary light on the left; background build on a bent 48x48 baseplate to give the sense of the curve of the inside cylinder of the generation ship; front layer built flat; bitlights spread across the brickbuilt elements.
So let me start by saying I hate LEGO short legs, so the first thing I want to do, was fix that.
Now I sanded the sides of torso to make them flush with the belt piece, and sanded the bottom as well, making the Torso and the belt piece, putting them together to make it to a normal sized torso...if you're not following, check out my YouTube video where I explained it and show you, the link is below.
The legs is just a normal set of Lego legs, that I cut & shortened and I sanded the thigh area & I sculpted on smaller thigh with procreate.
I also sculpted the hair. The jacket is a modified CapeMadness AR jacket. And the claws are from Lego.
And I painted the rest.
Let me know what you guys think?

Customized '57 Ford Custom at the 2019 Back to the Fifties car show.
Yes, I messed with the perspective a little bit.
Oh boy the nostalgia. It's been 3 years at least, I and I have finally redone the very first custom figure I posted on Flickr. I would say I've come a long way.
His helmet is an Ultron helmet over a Superman head, modded with Green Stuff.
His upper chest and back armor is cut from a plastic card.
His belt pouches, chest strap pouch, and knee pads are cut from dry Green Stuff.
His vambraces and shoulder pads are both Brickwarriors pieces.
All of his straps and his bandanna ribbons on his helmet are made with electrical tape.
The sword is just a Brickarms sword that was slightly modified and glued to the back.
This was painted by me.
What do you think?

Here are all my more recent custom Clone Troopers. Custom clones a is where I got my start as a customizer, so I love making clone troopers since it always throws me back into the past.
So far, I've made Commander Cody, a 501st Legion trooper, then four clones from Battlefront II being the Assault, Heavy, Specialist, and Jet Troopers.
These guys are all 100% hand-painted other than the base torso print.
I have a lot more clones I want to make, so expect more of these guys!

Haven't shown this custom Frag Viper in a while.
It was actually my childhood figure, but I opted for a repaint more in line with the Vipers.
A custom Red Skull that I hope is reminiscent of the classic version. It's not 100% comic accurate, but I made it mostly from the body of a Hydra soldier, because that's what I had available. I do like it better than any of the official Red Skull figures.
The head came from Iron Skull and the cigarette holder is made from a toothpick and wire.
Does anyone know where that gun came from? It was in with my spare parts but I have no idea at this point.
The end of the day promised but was not very collaborative, with some time, gave me for long exposures with a custom white balance.
I particularly liked the result of this, but I give myself to your justice ...

Just some random custom figs I've had sitting on my shelves for a while. Never actually planned on posting them but what the hell.
Rick and Morty: Pretty self-explanatory, Rick probably needs a better head.
Mister Freedom: from the surreal, fucked-up little 60's movie of the same name. I'm not even sure how to describe this movie, it's just something you gotta go find. It's also objectively terrible in many, many ways.
Andy, Jim, Kevin, and Posey: Aka the main cast from the short-lived Animated series Mission Hill, one of my favorite shows of all time.
Serious bonus points if you got Mister Freedom and Mission Hill by sight, cause this is some obscure stuff.
Anyways, lots of stuff on the horizon, so stay tuned.
Arealight printed Hera Twi'lek head
Custom work by me.
When Arealight started producing his Twi'lek head in lime green and also printed it to look like the character Hera from the new Star Wars Rebels show I was very excited. I am not a real big fan of LEGO's twi'lek head and thought this would be a great opportunity to see if I could tweak the fig and make it look a bit better, in my opinion.
Arealight himself beat me to the punch when he posted a photo of this pilot helmet cut and placed on his Twi'lek head, but he cut the entire rear portion of the helmet off. I decided to take that idea to the next level. I cut the top of the Twi'lek head off, separated the tentacles from each other, drilled holes in the pilot helmet and then it was a lengthy game of cutting, trimming, sanding and fitting the tentacles into the holes I drilled. This is the final result! I'm very pleased with how it came out, and yes.. the goggles flip down and line up with her eyes too. Here they are side by side.. Which do you like more?
It's been a while since I've customized a girl to stay, so I'm super excited to introduce to you my newest work / addition: Loretta! I had been dying to create a brown girl but have been so busy with commissions and special requests that I hadn't had the time to experiment with coloring plastic, so a fakie it is! (Happy Birthday month to me!) As most of you know, all of the girls in my personal collection have names from The Beatles' songs, some of them are related to the songs and some of them are not. In this case, don't mind what the song "Get Back" says about Sweet Loretta Martin LOL! This Loretta is a very girly girl who is very sassy. I hope you love her, all the girls are very excited to have a new sister to play with, except Prudence, but that's just Prudence. Hope you enjoy the pictures and you'll definitely be seeing more of her! Xx
^w^ Lalala~ Working on some more custom Obitsu heads to sell! This one and the next one after it have a shared theme; stars! The two of them together are meant to represent the constellation Gemini. This one is the "left twin" and I call them "Pollux" after the star that makes the "head" of the left twin. They have their half of the Gemini constellation on their right cheek and their counterpart, Castor, has their half on their left cheek. When you have the two heads side-by side they complete the constellation ^u^
Anyways, I'm working on the other twin now but I thought i'd snap a WIP shot of this little one before I take them out for sealing again~
*u* I think i might try making custom wigs to go with these two little ones as well! I think I have some colors on hand that would go great with their colors!
The first of 2 custom figs arriving this Spring, this custom figure will feature high quality pad printing on the front head, front torso, front legs, side legs, and back torso. It will also feature a red cape with a dark red print on it from MMCB Capes and dual molded red and blue legs.
What do you guys think?
So I've been debating over this for awhile, I'm going to still make purist customs, but sometimes use some other items (such as paint, clay, etc.) So I am proud to present my Vulture! The only thing that isn't Lego is the eyes, which are made from play-doh. Please tell me if you like the idea of more 'custom' minifigures, and also if you like the backdrop too ;)
the funny thing is....I do this custom to put him in my comedy stop motion XD and I haven't watched any movie of him....but I do watch the robot chickens his voice is an angel XD

The building was constructed between 1781 and 1791. That time this place was a swamp and the construction engaged every available mason in Dublin.
The facades are decorated with coats-of-arms representing Ireland's rivers.
During the War of Independence in 1921 the building was burnt down.
Before and After. I Have been taking a break from the first gear stuff lately, but this is my latest truck
Here is the final photo of the custom bed. Similar, but with a few tweaks to make it look more mission/rustic and less urban/ikea!
It's a California King size, and wow, is it big! I wish I had enough doll room to keep it for myself-- as it is, I barely had enough room on my teeny table to photograph it, lol!
A pic from the inside showing some of the modern details in the new Ridley Heights house. I'm daydreaming of this home perched over a serene lake somewhere! It has a couple of cute add-on packs too, and the Jasper Landing Wardrobe pack also fits this home perfectly :)
