CCCVI Custom Castle Figure: Eomer

Post by Roaglaan »

Here is my first entry into the contest:

The torso is my design and it is a laser printed sticker. The helm was made froma brickforge viking and centurion helm, Armothe has credit for the idea.

Wow, that helm is just the same shape as in the movie :shock: . Now all you need is white hair stuck on the top and spray-paint the helm crimson or something similar. IMO you should paste the torso decal over an Avatar breastplate (the ones that the fire nation warriors wear). He just needs to be "bulked up" a bit.

That is pretty neat. How did you make the helmet? Did you just cut them in half with an knife and glue them? Looks very cunningly done.

He cut the face guard off of the viking helm, and cut the cheek guards off of a centurion helm, then he glued the cheek guards to the viking helm.

Nice job Roaglaan!

Not being a Tolkien fan, I have to ask: What is the source you guys all use for these character logos? Are they from the movies or are they found somewhere in the books/maps?

Why do I have to add the word "minifig" to my spell checker every time I use it?!

The design I used for Eomer is from the movies.
