[jinwolves]

Hi i want to make a sonar lensed dark knight head, but what the color of the eyes actually? Blue or red?

 

[jinwolves]

Oops sorry.. is blue or white?

 

[Devil_666]

I would say white. But when they're illuminated they look blue.

This looks very good, besides the cape mod and gun mod..anything else?..the head looks better for some reason.

Thanks snake and Valfar

Yes, the head is indeed different. Changed the mouthpiece with the Takara one from the Begins figure. That was the majour change on this figure. And I'm glad you like it.

that mouth piece improves the figure 10 fold! for some reason it makes the suit look better as well - great work

 

[lforigno]

I love the mods you did, turned out great man.

Indeed! Makes it look like the head is a two piece part. As if you can actually take the cowl off revealing the Wayne head.

The more vibrant colour adds all the more realism to it. It makes Hot Toys mouth piece look ill. Plus Hot Toys mouth piece looked extremely flat with a big chin.

It really looks like Bale's mouth. Such a great job, makes the whole figure look heaps better

This has got to be one of the best dark knight mods I have seen,great work

 

[Thrustmaster]

wow guys never thought to get so many positive feedbacks on this mod thanks so much

took some more shots with the pod

Sorry for posting so many pics, but I'm happy because i can look again at him. Have played with the idea of selling him. Have the Medicom Bats here and waiting for the DX plus having the OC would be too much Bats and he just doesn't looked that well, but now I'm happy with him, but maybe I'm still going to change that head afterwards with one head of the DX.

Would love to change the mouthpiece of the OC but it's much bigger on the OC than on the Takara, so it would look weird to have so much space free on the cowl. Now if I only had one OC-head for testing

 

[Jokes & Bats]

Looks fantastic! I can't believe how the mouth somehow improves the entire figure. Love your poses as well - very realistic and natural

 

[agonistes86]

Look very cool, I'm glad you could put the Takara head to a good use.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

It is amazing how drastic an improvement that has made. Great idea and great execution.

I thought the cowl was drastically off. Maybe it's been the mouth sculpt thats been mostly off with a small percentage of the cowl itself. The cowl looks stunning face on there.

Simply stunning, Thrust! Great photos.

It's great with lforigno's capes. Creating the solid black down to the feet. No daylight peeking through at all. I love that look.
