You really nailed Lego’s art style, nice job! On an unrelated note, could you do a tutorial on your mouth animations? They match what you’re saying really well, I’d love to know how you do it!
Sure thing! For now, my process is first grabbing just my “animation dialogue,” transcribing it, then dropping the audio and text into Adobe Character Animator. Next, I link the transcript and audio to a premade mouth and the software creates a base level of visemes (mouth shapes). Finally, I go in and adjust some of the shapes to better match my audio, export the mouth video, and stick it onto my minifigure render!
Your lego modok looks better than the on screen modok. Great job on these! My only real critique is the Tony and Peter picture. You nailed the style but the arms look insanely long. I would have brought them closer together and put the hands on top of their heads closer together
Hi Ryan My name is Evan and I would like to write a little thank-you note. Dear Ryan every day before bed I watch your videos and admire your setup and minifig display. I hope one day to be a lego designer I also hope to have a minifig setup just like yours. Going in to 5th grade I'm happy knowing that when ever I'm stressed I can watch one of your videos. Your my favorite youtuber and hope one to repay those times when I was stressed and to repay you with legos ,money, or something else. Marvle is my favorite theme which is one of the many reasons I watch your videos. I've been watching your videos for 4 years now and plan to watch much longer. Dear Ryan I hope see this this comment and keep up the good work. I thought to write this to express my gratitude to you so bye.
Hey Evan! Thank you for your kind note and I'm so glad you enjoy the videos! I think it's awesome you want to be a LEGO designer, as it seems like a really fun job! Have an awesome day!
Good video, a few things however I saw that were odd choices. If you chose a square flat stud and not a round one, the pager could’ve been a bit bigger and looked better for the shape, and the arms in the Tony and Peter picture need adjusting, it looks really cursed.
As an artist in the LEGO community, I can say that you did greatly here. The only pieces of advice i could give you are that when it comes to wrinkles, they should be thicker for them to be more refined and they also point at the ends of the lines too. Also, LEGO doesn't typically use gradients in their prints anymore since the early 2000s, take the SDCC Arsenal for example. And for when it comes to designing things such as comic prints, i would recommend looking at the Detective Comics print from the DC CMF so you know what level of detail you should be going for, otherwise, everything looks brilliant!
I have to say, I enjoyed this video, however as an artist who has dabbled a bit in custom LEGO designs, I’ll offer some advice. I think your concepts are amazing and I especially loved the minifigure. For some of the other pieces though, I think it’s important to keep the lines thick enough to make sure they print well. From what I’ve seen, LEGO doesn’t really print lines that are super thin like some of the ones on some of the background characters on the comic, but that’s really an easy fix. My biggest complaint however is with Modok. I think that the concept is there, but the helmet piece(s) are too overdone. I don’t think the glow or the embossing should be there, though I’m willing to be more open to the glow. I also think that it just looks a bit less polished than the others. The free handed lines don’t really work for that sort of thing, and it’s easy to see the jitter and asymmetry. My best advice here would be to keep it simple, and to do one of two things. If you’re going to continue free handing the designs, using a program with a mirror/symmetry tool will help a lot, and turning up the smoothness of the brush can help avoid any jitter or skipping. If you don’t go that route, which I don’t think is best, you ideally should be using vectors. The shape tool and ESPECIALLY the pen tool are your best friends. You can even draw half of the design and copy it to the other side to cut down on work while still keeping everything clean. Also, the gold on the helmet really didn’t print well, so I’d suggest for future pieces, if you’re printing something that has the same colored background as the piece you’re printing on, make it a PNG like you would for a Minifigure piece. I get that maybe gold wasn’t an option, but designing the helmet to be yellow would look much nicer than trying to fake the gold color with printing. I hope nothing came off as too harsh, I just genuinely want to see you improve. Again, I think you have REALLY solid concepts, and I’d like to see them more fully realized. I hope you make another video like this. I want to see what else you can come up with.
Thanks for the sound advice! As someone who isn’t a designer, these are all great tips, and I’ll be sure to dive more into the pen tool and mirror tool for the eventual part 2!
Awesome video!! It's great to see you trying out some Lego designs after so many reviews of oficial and unoficial figures haha the pieces you made look amazing!! If I can give one feedback, it would be to thicker more some lines, make them more consistent too. Using a line and mirror tool is also great, this way the lines looks more consistent and less "hand drawn" I'm really excited to see more designs coming from you, there's a lot of potential for MCU minifigures and small pieces 😁
Yes theres a part 2 coming, I think you should try and attempt to make an amazing spiderman lizard minifigure, I think it would look great since you are the one to make it.
Once I find some good figures. There were some solid Fantastic Four figures awhile ago (pretty sure I even reviewed them). But I haven’t seen any good ones since.
Tony’s arm is a bit too long
Ya
Peter's too
All he had to do was move the hands so only the tip of them appeared over their heads.
Just a tad bit 😊
Nah he’s just built different
Funny watching this after the avengers tower reveal with Kevin feigi
Yup

thanks for responding could you mention me in a vid it would make my year. Bye.
One more thing how much would you sell your marvle minifigures for I'm interested in buying them when I'm older.
Hi, I hope you have a great day or night whenever your reading this. thanks for posting videos for us.
Thank you! Glad you enjoy these videos!
Newt's Skamander face fits Kevin Feige too
I don’t know what to comment, but all I know is that this video is incredible
This video was awsome! Would love to see more of this!
Awesome video!
look great
I am gonna try my hand at some of these!
Been waiting forever for a new one! Thanks for not leaving us!
All those are amazing!, but wow modok is perfect!!
You know who you should make. Daredevil. Either main Netflix suit or She-Hulk suit
You should try to design some Resident Evil lego minifigs. I'd buy them in a heartbeat
We are literally getting over half of these in 1 official Lego Marvel set now, including the Kevin feige fig. Surely you get some credit for this?
Hahaha I guess I’ll have to compare and see who designed it better (probably the professionals lol)
Any reason you didn’t make the pager on a 1x1 square flat stud?
Hi Ryan love your content keep the good work uo
What a awesome video your really good at Digital art don’t let anyone tell you other wise!
This video was very nice, I enjoyed it very much
Really cool custom prints. For part 2 try making the Symbiote in a like glas case
Interesting!!
@@RyanSevelVlogs plss do it
Lego NEEDS to hire ryan
Hahah pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to buy any more off-brand figures if LEGO hired me…
Hey if you want to make your custom prints more lego-y, make the lines the same thickness, and also lego doesn’t use gradients.
very creative video!
I think lego watches his videos
Wouldn’t that be crazy
ryan since you like to review knokoff lego figures you should buy the knockoff lego spider book it comes with a build and 52 spider men/women.😊
Good video, a few things however I saw that were odd choices. If you chose a square flat stud and not a round one, the pager could’ve been a bit bigger and looked better for the shape, and the arms in the Tony and Peter picture need adjusting, it looks really cursed.
Fair point for Tony and Peter. I chose a round stud because there was not a 1x1 square plate option available
@@RyanSevelVlogs Ah okay! Then for a rounded stud it came out surprisingly well! I think the modok is my favorite part of the video, he looks awesome.

Awesome! Thank you for the kind words and stellar feedback! I might call upon your expertise for a future video if you don't mind...
Modok with the two separate pieces shows me that it is a robot face and not a real face. Great customs and I really wish I had that walk man.
How would I be able to do this myself?
Plz make a part 2 but with DC
Maybe, New Goblin from Spider-man 3?
Ooo that’s a fun one

@@RyanSevelVlogs We're getting a part 2?!
@@cg2miami2030 That's the goal
@@RyanSevelVlogs Yes! I’m so happy we are getting a sequel to one of my favorite videos of yours!

u bet ur doing powerrangers next
When are you going to be making a lego x-men or fantastic four video?
Once I find some good figures. There were some solid Fantastic Four figures awhile ago (pretty sure I even reviewed them). But I haven’t seen any good ones since.
Can I buy the modok from u
Peter doesn't look very happy in one of the custom pieces. I probably would have gone with his CMF face
What do you use to draw on the decals?
Photoshop!
How can I buy these printed pieces, I need, emphasis on need them for my collection.
Haha well in theory, you could screenshot my designs from this video and have them printed on minifigs.me
@@RyanSevelVlogs wow I realy wasnt expecting you to reply to my comment, thanks for the tip 👍🙂

I'm sorry I forgot you were a RUclipsr 😅
Is that guy your voice just edited???
Haha it’s a fully AI voice. I wish I was that good of a voice actor.
@@RyanSevelVlogs oooooh some parts I was like is this Ryan? Lol 😂
Im the first one
Ryan i think you should review lego xmen customs
Or disign some
Not a bad idea…
Lego should hire you to design new peices
why does ben souds like an AI
I think you are way to hard on yourself, some constructive criticism is fine, but your initial efforts are always very good in the first place!
Looks like you were wrong about Lego not making a Kevin Feige
A welcomed surprise for sure!
@@RyanSevelVlogs thanks for replying to my comment
" A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. "
LEGO gotta do better sometimes
Dude make lego ideas
I've actually made 2 Ideas submissions, neither of which got to 10,000 votes lol
Honestly, i think that your kevin feige mjnifigure looks better than lego!
