NJ Spring 2011 Challenge: Celebrities (x7)

[Jess]

The Non-Jossverse Spring 2011 Challenge runs from March to end of May.

This challenge is to make celebrities. Either movie/tv stars, or music stars. Either candid moments (real life), performing on stage, music videos, or photo shoots. This would be of the actors themselves, not from a movie/tv character role.

Examples (there are many more to choose from):

-Sarah Michelle Gellar (in any of her photoshoots)
-Avril Lavigne (from any of her music videos)
-Lady GaGa (on stage performing)

Rules for Customisers

1) You can state your ideas for what you intend to make. You can post in-progress photos, if you like, as well as finished photos.

2) Remember, this challenge is just to give us some unity during this Season. You are still encouraged to produce any custom you like that is un-related to this challenge and post it in its own thread.

3) If you post photos of your custom in this challenge thread, please don't also post it in a separate thread.

4) This challenge will last during the months of March to May only. Please plan to finish your figure by May 31st.

5) You can use any format of custom in this challenge. It can be Mini, Palz, 6", 12" or bust. It can be a single figure or a tableau of several figures.

6) Only photos of 600 pixels wide, or less, are accepted.


Rules for Non-Customisers

Everyone is encouraged to comment on the works shown here. This thread is for chatting about the theme, posting photos and sharing ideas but please keep it on topic.

I just love the way you've photographed her and replicated the album cover. What a great way to show her!
Justin is fab as well!

[Customizer452]

Thank you so much.

[Whiskey025]

She looks great . That pose must have been difficult.

[MsBig]

Well done for keeping this challenge going! Nice work! Bieber is my favourite.

[figurechick]

Wow,NeverSayNever452, you've been busy I like your customs. Justin Bieber has a great likeness,and the outfit sculpt is excellent(wouldn't have guessed that's a Robin figure under there, and I actually have that figure). I love the sneakers!Nice work on Jaden, too. Who'd thought the Heroes Claire work for both? Lady Gaga must've been difficult w/ the positioning and hair sculpt, looks really cool.

[Customizer452]

Thanks Every one for the great comments, I just Finsshed a KAty Perry one, I'm going to post pic tomorrow, and I'm working on a Avril!!!! I hope I can pot them in time !!! :

[Whiskey025]

Here is Lady Gaga form the Judas video cartoon-styled. I used a disney princess favorite moment Aurora mini doll by mattel. I sculpted her hair, outfit, and base. I added the base because these mini dolls can't stand on their own.

[Customizer452]
