Hello , A word of advice: if you want a better result... use a vector program (illustrator) because illustrator files never lose quality, whatever the format in which you print. For texts it is also ideal ( your text will not be pixelated) -> You will have a smooth result! Photoshop is only good for reworking, retouching or modifying a photo... but not for drawing
I’d consider for future projects starting with adobe illustrator so you don’t have to deal with all the heavy pixelation. If you’re used to photoshop the tools are fairly similar, but illustrator is vector based so you don’t compromise resolution for scale while designing.
great job on the custom prints I’d love to see you make a custom 1x1 tile of the eye of agomoto, a custom 2x2 circular plate for miss minutes, and a custom minifigures of the lizard from tasm 1 and no way home
I think Bucky looks good but I think making it a sticker on a curved cylinder piece could give some depth and make it look like he's actually in a chamber of some sort. Better yet, put a semi translucent sticker of the chamber on a curved translucent blue half cylinder that you then put Bucky inside of could give it a lot more play functionality for the kids and really sell the look you are going for. If I had to do a request, I need an actual good version of the Shocker, I have both a knock off version and the official shocker from Homecoming, but neither really does him justice imo. Bonus if you can make Silvermane or Silvermane's head for a real deep cut into the comic "Superior Foes of Spider-Man," my all time favorite comedic comic book.
I feel like my life is complete, one of my comments was featured in one of Ryan Sevel's videos. Again I love the designs, I will probably use your advice and screenshot these designs and get them printed.
I feel like Bucky on ice could’ve looked more lego, maybe a more brick-built looking tank, and the head could use one that actually had it’s eyes closed, and then just edited on the stubble, still looks amazing
Another amazing video, all the designs looks awesome!! Is great to see how you improve so quickly in the designs, your upgrades looks so good! As a pixel artist one of my biggest struggles was to know which details I should keep and what could I remove or simplify, and this is the dificulty I see the most begginers commit. I assume Lego details are similar since they work on a smaller scale, so don't be afraid to not be 100% accurate with all the details, if he design has all the bigger shapes on place, it will read just fine!! Keep in mind that Lego pieces aren't "small real life props", they're Lego props haha if that makes sense Ooh and some tips, try to zoom out the image on the process, this way you can have a better idea on how the smaller details will read on the printed piece. And don't forget that gather references is a really important part of the job, I don't know if you have them in another monitor, but try to keep a window with official pieces by your side all the time, this way you can have a really accurate idea on the way Lego work the lines, contrast, etc. If you just pass your eye through them a few times is dificult for your mind to remember and keep some details Hope to see more of this videos in the future, this is one of your best projects!! Really like how you're bringing these MCU stuff, keep up the great work :D
I would suggest 2 things 1- use a vector program but export as PNG 1.5- download the Lego palette and keep it in the document for colour picking. 2- NO GRADIENTS
First time being this early in your vids, just gotta say i love it man! I don't collect Lego's but your enthusiasm made me want to watch your vids from start to finish. Godspeed!
The only nitpick I can think of Is the K.E.V.I.N.'s blue/green/red circle thing can turn in the show, so I suggest using the 2x2 turntable plate at the base of the rounded plates to replicate it
All of those prints look awesome, I think if there was to be a part 3, a minifig Lizard would be awesome, similar to Stripe from Lego Dimensions/Gremlins for scale design.
Hey, quick question with the moon night mini figure coming out in the new Lego CMF series for Marvel. I ended up getting a custom version of it before it was made. Is it still a custom or does it make it a knock off?
At 5:38. How did you get to make a cartoon minifigure talk with your voice? I would love to try it out. Please tell me. Its so cool! I like your videos.
My process is first grabbing just my “animation dialogue,” transcribing it, then dropping the audio and text into Adobe Character Animator. Next, I link the transcript and audio to a premade mouth and the software creates a base level of visemes (mouth shapes). Finally, I go in and adjust some of the shapes to better match my audio, export the mouth video, and stick it onto my minifigure render!
