[Iam_Dabatman]

The proportions here look perfect!

Awesome picture set, as usual. Will you have me buy that expensive figure I neither need nor want?

 

[Maglor]

Yep. Doesn't mean I cant still have fun with it.

Yeah, Mags! Love it.

Maglor-
Just great pics.....shows off the brilliant HS at it's best!

Great pics Maglor

Thanks.

Cool pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the middle 3 the best!!!!!!

I C what U did there.

The proportions here look perfect!

It's a trick. When I photograph a figure with an undersized head or shoulders that are too broad, I shoot the body at an angle with the head turned to the camera.

Mag did you do anything to it?


Edit-noticed your post in the mod thread. Unfortunately I can't view it since I'm in china, but can you sum up in words or pics how you did the traps/shoulders? Same method as the dx12?

Nice quality pictures but a little bit too dark. Light him up a bit.

Nonsense. Wonderful pics Mags.

he looks nothing like bale

Yes nothing like him. I thought it was Brad Pitt head sculpt for a second.

It's one thing to say that there is a flaw in the sculpt, but it's another to say it looks nothing like Bale. It's a very good resemblance, and I am sure anyone would recognize the sculpt as Bale.

I didn't do much. Really I only shimmed, heated, and reshaped the upper armor to give a slope to the traps. Then I took the shims out. I don't think the neck is actually too long, and the traps retained the shape even without the shims.

The video covers basic futzing, like cape installation. Then I rant about a couple problems I have with the figure.

Thanks.

There are plenty of full-lit pics. I like to play with shadow.

Big thanks Maglor for the pics and the video which helped me make my 1/4 Bats all the better.

 

[Maglor]

Anything specifically? You do any mods?

 

[BrooklynWolf X]

Well, for me, the ONLY thing I would consider doing are the traps. I emphasize consider....it's an effin $400+ figure, some serious thought needs to be put here.

Other than that, it's pretty much it.

Which is why I'm not keeping it.

Is there anything else you don't like about this figure other than the proportions? I have seen videos of this figure on you tube and the cowl doesn't look as realistic as Enterbays. Does the suit of this figure really look more toyish at this scale?

Madness, madness I say!!!

But it's cool, not everyone is gonna be pleased.

Nonsense. Wonderful pics Mags.

Nice picture but too dark, seriously.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I don't have the figure yet but I have noticed the ankles or maybe the lower shin looks really thin.

Not sure if it's because the foot part of the boots design is bulky and offsets the shins to look even skinnier but it's there

Does anyone with the figure think electric tape around the shin will work?

Anything specifically? You do any mods?

Cape installation, boots, working the suit, working the knee pads, etc. Thanks.

On mine, the only futzing technique I did was removing the boots and turning the leg armour so the knee pads sit better. I tried pushing down the chest plate, but it looks like I'll need heat. I can't be arsed unless it bothers me, which it doesn't at this point.

Was hard To put off the boots, how can we do ?

I had to use a fair bit of force and some turning. They are on some long, tight fitting ankle pegs. All I can say is pull harder than you think you need to.
