Title: Just found this Harry Potter custom on ebay
Post by: Lindama on April 29, 2010, 12:09:27
This custom looks really good. Does anyone know where the jumper comes from? Are the glasses painted on or from an actual klicky. I need some ideas for My Harry Potter theme. I was thinking a Hogwarts would be fabulous, but you would need fantastic numbers of castle pieces etc.

I have seen several HP-customs and they all use either this sweater:

or that:

There are several klickies with imprinted glasses. They all look quite different. A nice one is this:

That's a great looking custom

A Playmo hogwarts is a great idea, but the moving staircases would be a bit hard to replicate ;D

Thanks for all the help!

Rob, that is terribly kind of you...I live in Australia though, so would mean a trip into the post office for you. I will send you my address and you can let me know how much I owe you.  :)

I have been really occupied scanning ebay for ideas about Hogwarts and seeing all the castles on here has been inspirational but scary! How do you get that much steck without going nuts!

Also, how would you do Hadrig? I can't see any Playmobil giant figures.

Please give me all of your ideas, I am sure you all have some brilliant ones.

You don't.

Camera trickery like in LOTR movie, or have him always behind a wall.

Hi Lin!

I found another picture of the whole Hogwarts bunch.
I am not really sure who did them, but to 88% they are marvellously done by Daniela!  :cloud9:

There has been a whole castle behind this, but I do not have pictures of this.

You are right, Socrates! These are my figures.
And I also did Hogwarts, too!

Have a look here, click at the pictures:

And about Hagrid, I only use a fat figure, I don´t think, it´s necessary to make him really giant. I don´t wanted to cut the legs and make them longer.

Have a nice day,
Daniela

Daniela this is great!!!  :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: I love your Hogwarts...i've been struggling all morning trying to think of a design and looked at various photos but somehow could not get down to it!! Yours is so simple and functional!!!

Daniela, thank you so much for posting these! I love the way you have done the bridge, I was wondering how that would be possible. Which castle sets have you used? I think the "great hall" is currently listed on ebay...is this a very old set?

The characters are fantastic.

(ps, I knew I had not spelled Hagrid correctly but was too late to edit...oh the shame!)

Post by: Daniela on May 04, 2010, 17:56:41
Hi Lindama,

I am afraid, there was no complete set, I used. :-\

I have a lot of the two old Stecksystem castles. And all I did, was looking at the HP movies and try to buil Hogwarts with the parts I have.

No plan, no sets, only try and error.  ;)

But I had a lot of fun, creating it!

Glad, you like it!

Your Harry Potter figures and Hogwarts are AWSOME!
I really love the castle, it is not too complicated, but gives a great "Hogwarts" appearence.
Do you have the moving staircases? ;)

I am afraid, but no!  :-[

The Castle has no inside, because of the size.

But I always thought about creating a few rooms, too (classrooms, common room, Great Hall).
And one of my dreams ARE the moving staircases! So maybe sometimes...

Hope you'll be able to do it one day Daniela!!! You have put great effort to it and managed to create something very beautiful!!!

Daniela, I too would love to do some classrooms etc.

I was thinking -

forbidden forest
potions lesson
Gryffindor common room

etc

Please start, I would love to see what you come up with.  :)
