I just added a nice touch to mine. It's not for any posing or picture-taking purposes, mind. It's just a personal touch for when your playing with it. I ran over the area around his eyes with a small-point felt pen, making it glossy and as if he actually has black facepaint over them, seeing as it's initially the same color as the mask itself.
I sort of did something similar, mainly to paint out some of the corners of the eyes, mainly because the eyes are really too wide and too much pink on the sides. Tiny bit of black made the eyes narrower, and more realistic when there are less pink. But all the paint and markers I tried made the eye socket too reflective/glossy. Very distracting. So have to add some black pastel around the eye socket to minimized the gloss. So now, mine has slightly smaller eyes, different black on the eye socket, but without being too glossy. The over glossy marker can make Batman looks like he is crying or sweating under the cowl.
