So after a little consultation (mainly with the inspiration for this minifig) I have settled on the hat for the figure. Which means I am glad to present in all its glory the hipster minifig.
Below I've broken the figure back down to its parts so you can see what makes the completed figure.
Last night at a local quiz night I presented the finished figure to my friend.
So in the picture below we have the hipster minifig with the inspiration for its creation. I think you will agree I have managed to capture the essence of my friend and being a hipster (something my friend denies being vehemently. Although our response is always “well a hipster would say that wouldn't they”, it's a discussion he can't win ^_^ ) in the figure. The bottom half of the photo also shows another gift for my friend that continues the hipster theme. Yep a hipster dice from Steve Jackson Games. Ok picking up the hipster dice cost me an unplanned £12 buying a used PS1 along with a copy of Command and Conquer Red Alert. But I'm sure I'll write about that another day.
hello! nice work! i want to build this minifigure too, where did you find those parts?
Thanks, sadly I can’t remember where I got those bits from. This was 5 years ago. Not built anything much since then. You could try FireStar Toys I used to get stuff from them. I hope that helps.
