NovaHawk's custom stuff

NovaHawk's custom stuff is the imaginately-titled theme for custom stuff made by NovaHawk.

2017

Previously I took photos from websites and put the images together in Photoshop, but most my time was spent trawling through stacks of images trying to find the various pieces at exactly the right angle, and most of the time things never worked out. Turning coloured parts black or white, or cropping out white parts on a white background was also a nightmare. Instead, I'm taking screenshots in LDD of a minifigure at exactly the same size/angle and then touching that up in Photoshop before starting the custom. This means things will probably come out a lot more cartoony, but I can make more things the way I want and do it faster than before.

Super Sentai/Power Rangers

I'm going to do a few teams from Power Rangers or it's Japanese couterpart, Super Sentai. Why? I don't know, I feel like it. I'm not a fan of how the shape of the helmets turned out, but when you think about the structure of a minifigure and how wide the head is, I can't come up with a better solution.

Starting with Shuriken Sentai Ninninger/Ninja Steel. This is (I think) the current Power Rangers series, it's also the first series of Super Sentai I watched (it's still a kid's show in Japan, but it's much more mature and I find it actually watchable). Anyway, starting with AkaNinger/Ninja Steel Red. I was planning to move on to the blue and yellow suits after that. But even though they're not part of the main team, two of the three other AkaNinger are much easier since it's just a small colour change so I got those out of the way first. These two suits don't currently have any counterparts in Ninja Steel.

Super Sentai: Tsumuki Igasaki, Takaharu Igasaki, Yosiharu Igasaki
