Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

Looking SO AWESOME KINGER... Congrats

Ok, Late to the party but here's mine. There is a little spare fabric near the pec area but nothing to fuss about. I'm very happy with mine!

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

Thanks for wishes Spidey. Taken on any new commissions yet?

Not yet m8... just waiting for someone to hit me up for one. I have a future one that I am working on for a fellow Freak, but that is going to be a long term one. So totally available... thanks for asking m8.

If you aren't already I suggest a deviant art account and post your commission rates. Also you might want to start an etsy store, put a few head sketches up and post in your details that you're available for commissioned/custom work. I've had quite a few commissions come my way from those.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

OK... So I have had some time to take it in.... At first I was like Yeah this is pretty cool!!!


Everything seemed to be in good shape... Then I found the broken shoulder and I figured no big deal SSC will take care if it.
Pitgate seemed overblown. What a bunch of idiots to complain about the pits before they even had this in hand ;). It looks more natural in person so not a big deal. I am not even sure I will try the string thing.



I like the overall sculpt and the Martin C head. Ex is cool. Like everything.... Just don't love it but that is usual with a new piece for me. All the hype and pics always build it up so much that when I get the piece I am let. Down... My two boys hate the MC head.... Say it makes him look like a grumpy old man (shut up kids)


I get upstairs and I put him up on the shelf with Joker in my theater room... Hmmmm. Not loving it. I try a different shelf... Still not completely feeling it. I have it set up high like Batman would be but it just is missing something... I blame the hype and walk away.



I come upstairs later.. It looks cool but I still don't love it. Crap.... Thoughts of returning it and getting 400.00 back sounds nice... Perhaps ebay?? What is wrong with me.. I walk away again..




I go back up and I try the Andy B head.... BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ****ing fall in love!!!!!! What the hell!!! I never liked it in any of the pics.. I kept wondering why people were choosing it over the MC head. But then it hits me... I like that he is looking down (works better when the statue is up high) I can display him forward more and show off the Bat Emblem. and from the one side he is not as feminine looking as when he has the MC head sculpt (looks like he is letting his hair flow in the wind). The Andy B head has the better paint apps on mine also. The MC sculpt looks a tad dirty. I may have to get it customized. But I do love the MC sculpt still. It looks great at eye level. But the Andy B head is awesome for higher viewing and straight on (still has a goofy bird like profile).




So I have been wrong about many things about this statue... The Pits, the Andy B sculpt, the EX (I hate to say it but it is Ex or Fail. I cant imagine it without the Ex hand) and the fabric (though I would still prefer a fully sculpted bats this does look great). Is it the best SSC PF in years??? I don't know.. I actually don't even think it's the best DC PF (that still goes to the Joker IMO)



 
Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

scale issues aside, I still don't think GL fits with batman. One is mixed media, the other is fully sculpted. One is a museum pose, the other is not.

WW will be fully sculpted too. I think that is a non issue.

If the trinity stand tall down center and you have GL one aide and an action posed Flash on the other, I will be very happy.

Oh and I don't think Hal should have cloth. The ring generates his uniform. The gloss finish makes it look like he is encapsulated in will energy. I love that PF.
 
Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

I definitely like the Andy B. headsculpt way better than the other head sculpt.
The Andy B. head sculpt reminds me a lot of a cross between Neal Adams art mix with Brian Bolland.

I still want a Jim Lee style head sculpt.

Funny... I always prefered the Canale sculpt. Reminds me more of Miller Bats with a "take no bs" grimace.

Exactly, thats why I'll be using the Andy B. When mine arrives. Two of my favorite comic artists all time.

Nice pictures Jaws... Joker does seem to pop out more when he is displayed with Batman.
 
Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF

Now the praise for Batman begins... less complaints :wink1:
 
Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF
