These new ones are awesome. I like the effect of the Hagrid beard on the black skeleton.

Hello Marakoeschtra

Your sigfig looks great. I really like how you have removed the peasants blue arms and replaced them with the classic gray arms. It looks very smart. The color of the legs really suits it too.

I have had a look at your minifig creations, and they ALL look fantastic. Keep up the great work, and keep us posted when you add more.

Thanks for sharing your talented work.

Thank you for your comments. :D I really appreciate them !
And I keep updating the folder; today brings two new characters:

First, here's a strong bodybuilder-kind of guy lifting a heavy weight;
I used the longer basketball arms for this one:

And this is what I call an "Oriental elite warrior" ;
the torso I used is from professor Dumbledore found in the Hungarian Horntail set:

I just saw these on brickshelf. I was wondering where the torso for the "Oriental elite warrior" came from. Alas, mystery solved!

I like the strong man. Nice use of that face.

These are good as always.

Nice to see the Exo-Force and Avatar minifig pieces used in a Castle context. The warrior is very cool as well. I'll blog these tonight. :wink:

EDIT: And blogged as promised.

More great figs. The Strongman is awesome, but I like the Elite as well.

These are great. Great use of Aang's torso too.
Excellent job.

Although it's nice, I don't like the weight lifter nearly as much as the Oriental warrior. That guy is hard-core, and blingin' to boot!

You never fail to impress me with these figs!

My latest addition to my characters is this couple of veterans:
The jellybean-ish color may be doubted, but anyway it's a good opportunity to use the purple helmets I just got. :D

Hey yeah! I would like some odd colored helms, but I couldn't think of any particular use to justify them yet, but this works great! Super job as usual.

Great new figs, marakoeschtra. The standing one is more interesting, but I think I'd prefer to meet the sitting one.
