I made the most advanced custom minifigure I could ever think of, using almost all the techniques for how to customize a minifigure. Consider this video your guide to how to make custom LEGO minifigures.

I go over how to paint minifigures, how to find the best pieces for customs, and even how to use the new LEGO Minifigure Factory, all for building my very own sigfig.

    You see, Ryan, I've always wanted to make my own custom LEGO minifigs, but I never knew what options were available. I even made my own yellow Daredevil with pieces that I have collected.
  • @B-Mag
    I'm a brown guy so finding a piece that has my skin color is an added challenge but i am still looking forward to doing this
  • @KingBanditt
    This was great! Personally I favor purist customs but you inspired me to make a custom torso! I’ve made it and it looks great!
  • @CuhhDiii
    Ryan is clutch. I’m in the works on doing customs figures and the fact you uploaded this today is great timing.

    I have a friend who’s like my best friend but he lives 9 hours away after a moved, and we’re kids but you remind me of him so much either way your personality and it’s really special to me so thanks, also I’m addicted to legos and your videos, I just finished the Japanese bonsai garden
  • @RealBumbleedits
    Honestly I've seen your custom minifig videos and some of them look amazing!

    Hi Ryan, You didn’t need to remove the left legs printing! All you needed to do was find another light greyish-blue/sand blue left leg, then you would just have to swap it out! Also, it’s not very usual for it to crack, but you just need to be careful.

    I have glasses and the Justin Hammer head works well cause he’s not a very well known character and only if you know him it’ll be mistaken
  • @Jdslimedburn
    Very interesting,I might keep this in mind when making my own sigfig of myself like you did. Though I have a feeling you could do this with minidolls as well, though the process of cusomizing them probably will be slightly different because the minidoll figure is designed way differently than a minifigure's
  • @sirchickentender
    So theoretically If I were to paint the entire mini figure I was custom making what would the best brand of acrylic paint would you recommend?

    I tend to like to stick with purist minifigure parts so I use yellow skin tones for most of my custome minifigures since they have the most variety of faces but I do like to use flesh tones sometimes aswell as I like to have my city be diverse in figures with a variety of different skin tones and the way I see it is that bright Lego yellow is just another skin tone in the Lego world
