I have to disagree mildly with this, Pawel.
I think at an incipient level, these darkworld3D minifigs are okay. Some good
ideas there, but poor execution ruins a lot of them. I also think its an
outrage to knockoff Craigo's stuff -- like the Flash and Green Lantern -- and
actually post it to the internet as one's own stuff. Trying to sell them just
adds insult to injury. There's just such a huge quality control difference
between these two mini-craftsmen. And it's not that I think Craigo cares if
people do knockoff his stuff, I'm sure he's flattered -- but how about some
credit where credit is due?
Way back when I was edging Craigo closer to the X-acto blade, we both gave
each other credit for stuff we had done and talked about -- check our
respective webpages.
If Craigo ever chooses to sell his little people, believe you me -- the
quality difference is there. I have three of Craigo's designs (one as
authorized #1313, no less!) and they rock! You can stand them next to
regularly printed minis no problem.
When did we get a minifigure subgroup? Wow...Lugnet is "almost" worth it now!

| (...) What are you talking about? Go look around at custom Star Wars figures. No one says that it's someone else's design, you're inspired, but it's not like Craig owns the rights to a Flash minifig. And it's not like he used one of craig's methods (...)
