Hero Forge
Just ran this past Yods as it coulda been seen as spam as it'll possibly include links to a third party.
Hero Forge is a site you can build custom miniatures, and then actually order them. I've been messing around on HF for ages and made literally thousands of movie references :laugh: I'm also considered a master builder (ahem) as the extreme posing and stuff that can be done, I've basically taken to the extreme and amongst the online community almost rewritten how to twist miniatures into extreme creations :D Obviously there are limitations due to HF having various limits on clothing and stuff, but they're releasing new gear, items, base stuff etc all the time but it's just stupid fun to mess around on it and build movie characters :D I'll kick the thread off with some basics I've built... went with a themed base on them as well to match the logo.

Re: Hero Forge
Quick example of a simple build with a more extreme-pose build I've done :D

I'll post up simple ones to start I think. If anyone else wants to post their stuff, obviously go ahead and use the thread :) |

That said, Gennaro looks like a male stripper who's just about to set down his boom box.

@Yoda
Ok, I can't take credit for this Yoda build... it's one someone else built using a legless glitch on the site. It is in fact printable too. Yoda: https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D17168027/ https://i.imgur.com/53eTRkD.png I did build a Yoda, but it looked kinda poop so I probably won't be posting it yet :D I can however take credit for this Emperor. I built this before the recent addition of a chair. I had to get creative to make it seem as if he's on his throne. Multiple arms and gear etc to basically build a throne around him etc. I've got a number of throne builds using imaginative posing as well.

Re: Hero Forge
Neat. I'm starting to understand this better, how it's sort of a skill to "fool" the seemingly limited system into creating shapes it didn't really intend. Very interesting.

HF are pretty clever though with their designs. Like, they won't allow for a squidface character, but posing tails will allow you to make one. They actually got sued by another company who have the IR to a character species called Mindflayers, which are basically squidfaces, so HF created ways to make them yourself if you're actually good enough to pose tails to go through the body and make them. With the countless combos of gear, clothing, species and posing they have, you can pretty much make anything you want, and then get the stuff 3D printed. |
Re: Hero Forge
I'll be posting up my Xenomorph builds in a while... there's some stupid extreme posing going on with them. Like, super advanced pushing of the system...
|
I have technically done the entire cast of Aliens, but they looked kinda generic with the armour and stuff... so I'll just post the ones that worked best...
The actual Alien builds are pretty advanced, but the Ripley build is probably the most complex of all these. Stupid happy with the Ripley build tbh.

These are pretty cool. Do you actually buy any of them, or do you just build them for fun? |

They're a little out of my price range to actually order :laugh: |
Re: Hero Forge
HF recently released prosthetic legs and stuff so I updated my RoboCop build, and made am ED-209...
ED-209 is a maxed cranked pose and multi-arms, took ages to get it right the first time I made Mech builds... https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D26436465/ https://i.imgur.com/yJcMXOn.png https://www.heroforge.com/load_config%3D26436602/ https://i.imgur.com/uaQldwI.png |
I bet some of these figures would look so cool sitting on your shelf, especially the Terminator ones. :)

Re: Hero Forge
Holy crap!
I made a bunch of TMNT minis and stuck them on Instagram. Mark Caso, the martial artist who played Leonardo in the original 1990 movie liked them :D :D :D :D Caso's the same guy who played Sub Zero in the original Mortal Kombat as well :D For risk of advertising, here's proof :D : https://www.instagram.com/rodietr/ |
