Hey, has anyone thought of taking duplicate heads and painting different
facial
expressions on them using the craigo-lego techniques. For instance, you could
have a Verneer face as is, one with an angry face, one with the mouth open as
if talking, and one with a grimace would fit well in the shots where he is
injured. It would be great for all the story telling that has begun. Just a
thought.

That's a great idea! I was thinking of doing that to Scar but $99 for another
storm face is too much ;-) I might just use normal faces or something.
But in general, that would be soooo amazing!

Why actually paint on the LEGO?  Open up your scanned/digital pics in a
paint program and have at them!  This has numerous advantages, not the
least of which is the fact that if you screw up, you can always change
it back with Undo or Revert to Saved...

If you're not confident of your computer art skills you could take two
pictures - one with the 'fig you want and another with a head that has
the right 'expression' - and then copy/paste or clone the expression
onto the other pic.  Star Wars faces ought to be good for this - Luke's
determined face, Han's smirk...

(...) could (...) as (...) You're right! That's would be excellent. The only problem is that my paint program is the pits... I'm trying to get Adobe but meanwhile I'll stick to good-old pictures... Thanks for the idea, though! -Shiri (URL) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
