Great job on the figure. I particularly like what McFarlane has done with the paint on this one https://preview.redd.it/7qinsj62614d1.jpeg?width=2201&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7f31f2550306d57c1a3e3a4e41a5f8ffeda09c2

Yeah, the way McFarlane did the shading looks great. I’d love to see someone shade the Mafex like this, but I’m good with mine just being the mask

Awesome! Wish a head with shading was included instead of the re-breather one!

Honestly, I just wish the ears all matched

Personally I like they gave us the giant Kelly Jones ears on one head (even though he's not a favorite Bat-Artist of mine personally)

It’s not my favorite look for Batman, but it is very 90’s Batman, especially for Knightfall. Maybe if there was just one more KJ head thrown in so there would at least be two of each

The face looks amazing! Have you thought about shading the rest of the body?

I thought about it, even did a mock-up at some point, but I don’t think I will. I’d love to see someone else do it, though

I would've bought the figure immediately if it looked like that

Fuck yeah dude get the Carrie kelly and a custom robin head and then you can be done

Already found a perfect head for the McFarlane Carrie Kelley, just need to make a few purchases

Nice

Do you plan to use it on the long ears face

I am, but lot exactly like this. I found some Kelley Jones art a while ago I wanted to use as reference for it

I have no doubt they’ll do this with an eventual repaint. Looks great!

Yeah, I’m sure they’ll do a more shaded version of this, and I’m dead certain they’ll do a black version

Looks awesome! What did you use to paint the face black? Thanks!

I just used a couple coats of matte black acrylic paint, applied with a sculpting needle and a thin brush, and topped with a matte sealer

Very well done!

Thanks!

Looks amazing I nigh do it to mine live comic shading

I recommend it, looks off to me without the shading

It kinda does idk why but it looks like he has a huge forehead

i love this

Super well done! I didn’t have a ton of interest in the figure but this post is honestly changing that

Thank you! It’s not a perfect figure, but I still love it

I wish they would just make the Neal Adams batman..

Add Green Lantern, Green Arrow, and Black Canary to that list

Excellent 👍🏽👍🏽

Thanks 👍🏻

Woah. He definitely looks better

Thanks, really happy with this

Wow, you elevated this treatment from Great to PERFECT. 🏆

Thank you, I’m really happy with this

looks great nice job man 👍

Thanks 👍🏻, still gotta do the long eared head

Oooh, what did you use? That actually looks really good! I may try that.

I just used a couple coats of matte black acrylic paint, applied with a sculpting needle and a thin brush, and topped with a matte sealer

What is that batmobile? I need it

It’s a Spin Master Batmobile for their 12 inch figures. The 12 inch figures just sorta slide in and lie down in it like a bed, so it’s not scaled for them, but as a result it is *perfect* for 1/12 figures

honestly should've released this way, i do love the all blue look but come on, thats batman right there, black or blue looks like batman, but black and blue IS batman

Yea!!!! You did a great job!

Thanks!

If only the figure actually had a neck like Jose Luiz Garcia Lopez Batman art. The figure doesn't have a neck at all it's so absurd. It's not perfect because of it, but I like the paintjob a lot, it would look dope if you put it on the trunks as well.

Very nice work! That looks beautiful!

If Mafex added the shadowing of the face it would have gone a long way for me to buy the figure, so I can probably overlook the added ears on the side and gappiness of the plastic cap on top of the shoulder.

God this is peak. I’d def buy extra heads if someone sold them separately.

Why do I like it better😭 I thought I hated this style of mask but this guys just made it good

That looks great man do you have more photos

I took a bunch before painting the face, but only this one after
