Yakfinities #71 - CONCEPT SERIES - WINNERS POSTED

[YAK_Chewie]

Yakfinities #71 is: CONCEPT SERIES

Entries can be posted January 1 - March 31, 2019.

Please remember to submit NEW customs, not custom figures from years past. And if you make a lot of figures, that is awesome... group shots are very much encouraged for the sake of the roundup report too, if possible. Thanks all.

:wink:

Concept/What if

Entertainers
Doctors/Medics

This has been a reoccurring suggestion and with the barge quickly approaching, how about a "desert theme"? It could be another broad theme where we could create anything desert related. Jabba's goons, off screen barge characters, Tatooine denizens, desert scavengers, ships, beasts, etc.

What if we did a custom ships/speeders one instead of figures?

We've done that one recently. We did a mini-rigs challenge

 

[darthvlad]

I usually say Entertainers but I might need a break from customizing all these droids. :lol:

 

[Utinniii]

So far, I think I would vote for either Desert (Fill the Barge!) or Medics since I don't have as much time to customize these days and would prefer to do entertainers in the summer.

I really like the idea of Concept/What if but would also include "crossovers" in the What if group.

 

[YAK_Chewie]

Voting is now open - I threw a few other ideas into the mix that came to mind.

:wink:

 

[JawaKing]

Too many good idea choices this time. Only "Knights of Ren" doesn't appeal to me.

 

[Utinniii]

I chose dessert. I have a Sith Sweedish Chef concept I've always wanted to make.

I'm assuming by swoop gang you are meaning Enfys Nest's cloud rider gang?

[JawaKing]

Not much difference between the swoop gangs mentioned in Wiki and Nest's gang. Band of thugs or bandits for hire riding small hover bikes.

 

[johnmorog]

Ah gotcha. Tough choices. I like the sound of that one, but I also like the undercover jedi thing!

 

[darth_sidious]

Swoop gangs might be a bit too similar to the mini rig challenge from last year, where some people made swoops & drivers, so I went with concepts. Concepts can really include nearly anything across the SW universe, and there are some amazing designs that have never been translated into action figure form.

 

[JawaKing]

LOL yes, of course I just made a concept figure last month!

 

[darthapathy]

I had to go with Entertainers. I felt Scoundrels and Swoop Gang Members were kind of covered when we did Criminals

 

[Utinniii]

Just curious, do people vote blind or check the votes first?
I usually vote blind but have checked the last 2 times just to see if I was throwing my vote away (not that I changed my vote). I usually am one of the first to vote as well so the numbers don't matter then.

What I like to do is scroll down and read all the challenge titles to make sure we arent duplicating themes; when they get too similar, people might run out of ideas or not participate. I love when the ideas are fresh and we have a bunch of customizers participating! In the end though, they're just for fun, so I'm all for people voting however they like.
