Marky's Modern Centaur
Marky's Modern Centaur
After enjoying making this one in the figures GB I found another and have decided to try and make a modern version using the original and a new Police figure.
Original made for the GB..
The new acquisitions....
The police one is separated into upper body (front and back halves), and legs so hopefully it will combine with the Centaur kit which has the human' body separate to the horse body....

Hmmm, Rocket may have to go on my 'Grudge List'!!
I do think it's a good idea but all of the Leela figures I've found look way too big. The only option so far is converting the human body of the Centaur.....

Re: Marky's Modern Centaur
LOL. Okay, I'll let you off!! . Still no luck on a Leela figure to suit a conversion, looking into buying a figure and having a go at conversiongeneral rocket wrote:Do you really think I'm worried about going on "one more" grudge list.MarkyM607 wrote:Hmmm, Rocket may have to go on my 'Grudge List'!!

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Re: Marky's Modern Centaur
Classic!!. One of the best lines from Airplane films!. In all seriousness (not much here!!), I thought about the Mounted Police Officer' bit. It was along the lines of what if Centaur type creatures had become the dominant equivalent of us Humans. There wouldn't be true mounted police as all police would have their own horse!!! (if you see what I mean). It's similar to the end of the either liked or hated Planet of the Apes (Mark Wahlberg one), where the apes are in charge and turn up at the end in uniforms and police cars.iggie wrote:I am, and stop calling me Shirleygeneral rocket wrote:.......you can't be serious?Tarkas wrote:...but her name is Ashley, not Shirley...JamesPerrin wrote:Surely this thread should have been "Mounted Police Officer"
Anyway, it makes for interesting thinking how everyday items and equipment would be if the race using them was half horse half human rather than all Human. Might have to do a fire-fighter one...... Damn, a new idea and no General Rocket to stick in my head!!.
