Modification/Customization for the DX12 Batman Figure

[Batman1939]

Sorry, I'd much rather ruin my figure than someone else's.

I got an extra head and gloves and was more wondering if you'd be up to just sanding the neck post, painting the lids, and fixing the hands. But that's cool if you don't do that. Thanks for all of the tips!

You mean the shoulder armor?

During the bit where you were explaining how you cut the elbow pads off, you mentioned some people just bent them into place.

See below...

nice compilation of mods...going to do most of them so thanks ! easier now to figure what I need to do with mine ..painted the eyelids on mine and it looks so much better..was going to do the squint mod but wanted to try painting it first cause it seems like on the real pics, his eye surrounds are totally blacked out..even a little glossy...not too keen on the gauntlet mod so I just heated the elbow pads and bend it a bit so now it doesn't stick out as much as it used to..

^^^ Do you have pics of your gauntlet mod?

I'll take pics later on..

Well this thread sure is helpful! Thanks Maglor, I know im gonna try some of these when I get my Bats.

 

[Batman1939]

What type of paint and brush would you do the eyelid paint mod with?

 

[Maglor]

A really tiny one.

FANTASTIC thread. I will use it as reference when I get mine.

I don't trust myself either...but if your ever down to do the mod to other people's please let me know.

Thanks Maglor!
I'm gonna have something to do this Christmas.

Painted the eyelids.

Looks just about perfect.

 

[Maglor]

I suppose nothing's ever truly "perfect", eh?

thanks for the tips on what needs to be done to get the BW head on the DX02.

That's what I plan on doing and would have been a little confused if I hadn't seen this first.

 

[Maglor]

Yeah, I did. If I ever remove them again in the future I/m gonna try and find a way to push them in from the front.

 

[Batman1939]

The painted eyes look great. If I try it, I'll leave the eyes in as I don't think I could get them out and try to get my wife or customized to try. My hands aren't steady enough.

 

[Maglor]

A steady hand is much more necessary if you don't take the eyes out...

 

[intothevoid]

Eyelid paint looks great.

Too bad the back of the head can't be fixed

 

[Maglor]

Like I said, that's my only real problem with the cowl. But I've even gotten used to that.
