Wow! That's cool! very ninja-esque! I love the colour scheme, and all the robes. They make him look taller, and more intimidating. I like that he has no face, too. very mysterious....

Really cool, great designs and capes. I don't really like those shoulder things though.[/code]

thnx for the reply.

As a matter of fact, I put a 1x1 black lego piece under both his legs to make him look a little bit taller, about 2 cm taller, I haven't seen any kind of lego of this type here so Ya I put it to share with all. Plus its a black knight and there my favs.

Great work. Love it, even if I generally prefer a more historical look to anime.

....but what does it have to do with LEGO?
:wink:

What do you mean, what does it have to do with Lego? Its made of lego and is a custom black knight. Isn't that lego enough? You think it looks anime. What you mean? You mean like those anime cartoons? Im new so pardon my rookie type questions, I don't know the lingo in the forums here yet. But thnx for the compliment.

Wow! I think he looks brilliant! You have inspired me to make a general for my Wolfpack faction.

Well, I was teasing (note the use of the "winky" smileyface in my message), but except for the helmet and sword, honestly, I wouldn't know it to be made off Lego at the core.

Anime is a reference to Japanese "anime" style, used in cartoons and comic books, and thus into video games. The oversized pieces and ankle-heavy look are hallmarks of anime. It's not a style that I'm into at all, but I always appreciate good craftsmanship.

Thnx, I looked around and saw the word faction come up alot of times. I have one question do you guys play a game or something like that with your legos?

I don't particularly care for the large epaulette type things, but the rest of it is pretty cool. How did you make him? What type of materials were used.

Just stuff lying around the house. Im pretty broke and can't afford more than 150 dollars a month because of my bills, but the material I use is very sturdy. Not lego like but sturdy enough that it doesn't break when you play with them.

As of know this is my favorite minifig custom ever. Reminds me of the Black Knight from Fire Emblem. Well done indeed.
