Here are two versions of the modified figure. What do you think?

Here are the main characters for my upcoming, as of yet untitled bank heist brickfilm.
The villains:
The character in the center is Fletcher, an incredibly angry crime boss. His goons are unnamed.
The Robbers/Heroes/Criminals/Who knows?
Left to right:
Mr. White, John Blanc, Rick Ferniman, Joe Slater, Harry Connelly and Jason Ketterman.
Here's the main crew in their individual monster masks.
Left to right:
Rick(Vampire) John(Werewolf) Joe(Zombie) and Harry(Skull)
The designs aren't 100% final, but we'll see.
I like it, aside from the blue hand, which feels a little out-of-place in terms of the overal colour scheme. Nice to see a female pirate captain, too.
Where did you get the trans-lime hook from?
Thanks Jampot!
I gave her the blue hand in an attempt to make her look a bit more random/ragtag. I didn't want it to look too much like she was wearing a uniform, as she is a pirate after all. I guess it did just end up looking funny instead. I acquired the hook from a box of old 90's minifigs I acquired a few weeks back. I think it originally came from an aquanauts set.
Since I now have access to my LEGO collection for the first time in several months, I decided to make a bunch of minifigures to get back into the swing of things, based off of various concepts and character ideas I've had during this time.
First off, some random cyberpunk/sci-fi minifigs I put together: An average citizen, a cyber-nerd, a pizza delivery guy, a "business entrepreneur", and some sort of technician.
Next up are some bounty hunter types who pursue their quarries in the big cities as well as the more lawless reaches of space.
I also made some sci-fi soldiers: A government black-ops agent, a corporate assassin, a basic soldier, a heavy weapons trooper, and a really heavy weapons trooper.
The heads of a rather mysterious and shadowy organization. From left to right: Mr Pawn, the leader; Mr Rook, counter-espionage; Ms Bishop, Research & Development; Ms Knight, head of field operations; and Miss King and Mr Queen, special ops.
I haven't quite decided what exactly the organization does, but it's probably important.
The Chilli Pepper Bros., cyborg twins and notorious space-criminals wanted in over 13 Space Sectors.
A somewhat more in-depth character concept I developed. This is Archibald Slate, vampire hunter, expert of the occult, and investigator of matters both normal and paranormal. Notorious for being rather eccentric, he is nonetheless well renown for his skills and effectiveness in solving cases. His preferred weapons for fighting the undead are an ancient book of spells, a magical sword, a spray bottle full of holy water, and garlic skin lotion to deter vampire bites. The lotion also has the added advantage of keeping his skin nice and moisturised.
Here are also some vampires. the one on the left is very old (several hundred years at least), whilst the one on the right is younger and able to wield the power of pyrokinesis.
I was randomly messing around with some minifig combinations, and somehow came up with two of the most 1970s-looking characters possible. Is it weird that I suddenly want to make a brickfilm with them?
Sorry about the really long post. Hope you enjoy or something.
Those all look pretty good. Better than I could make.
Tres cool.
I dig the 1970's guys, I'd love to see something with them.
Awesome character designs. I love the cyberpunk/sci-fig minifigs.
Bump.
Anyone else noticed that the minifigures line of minifigures have a much higher quality feel to them. It seems most noticeable in their legs. They move back and forth more smoothly, and are very easy to animate with.
I haven't bought any as of yet, but am planning to. I really want the Highwayman and the Hot dog guy, because his exclusive accessories are really awesome!

I'd have to agree with that. They do move much more smoothly, and unlike minifigs from normal sets, they don't have to be limbered up when they're first built.
