More Hot Toys Superman?

[JediMike71]

Hi Grange Wallis. Where did you get that amazing Michael Keaton Batman next to your SR Superman? I love it!

 

[Reinhardt]

that looks like the Sovereign Studios Batman.

Grange, what exactly did you do with the stand to make him fly? can you post pics of the back? looks very very cool.

 

[Grange Wallis]

Oh, I just place the metal thingy into the stand about halfway up and then pop Superman on top of it... I'm at work... I'll do photos later!

 

[Grange Wallis]

Here are the pictures. Only the one of the hooks go under and inbetween the legs and the I used on the the arms to help balance the figure... picture two...

 

[Grange Wallis]

Also... I've stuffed Superman chest with cotton buds to make him look more muscular...

I didn't think Superman's chest needed any padding, although I did pad his jocks a bit!

Bringing this thread back from the dead I suppose. Now it is undead. I just got a DarkArtist V1 Superman repaint yesterday, and received the 2-in-1 figure today. My collection is significantly better with these guys in it. Being a super hero fan, and collecting super hero figures, Superman was a must, but they both eluded me until now, and fate gets them to me almost simultaneously.

And until a Christopher Reeve version is made, these will do just fine. Glad I picked them both up, though the V1 repaint looks better, in my opinion.

@karamazo: How do I get in touch w/ DarkArtist? I've tried his email on his site but never got any replies. Here's a pic of my bulked up Supes

 

[karamazov80]

Not particularly good ones because I have to use a flash to get decent pics, but I think these show the differences pretty well.

I think I am having more fun with these than I have had with any other 1/6 scale figure so far. Just a joy to pose around, hearing the Superman theme song as I do

I love Superman

And eric, as for contacting Josh, I just use the PM. He is having some personal issues right now however, and might take a while to respond. But his work speaks for itself. Amazing. You can even tell in my crappy pics

 

[ericvalenz]

thanks, man. Maybe i'll just him try later then.

That bulked up body looks pretty good. Did you add Sculpy to a TT?

 

[ericvalenz]

yes, the guy that did it for me used some scuply on the TT. the tricky part was how to unstitch the suit. he's a master, it's hardly noticeable. he did it on the side; amazing.

lol you remind me of........me!!!!!!! hahahaaha

Just switched the DCD 13 incher's outfit onto a True Type body just for the hell of it. It is pretty loose, of course, but if you "futz" it the right way, it doesn't look too bad! Didn't have any Hot Toys bare feet to put the red boots on, so he wears normal boots:

With a bulkier body, I think this could work.

 

[villainsfan42]

my god....superman's got blood on his hands

 

[Reinhardt]

The suit may look better on a hot toys muscle body. Or maybe pad that body a fair bit so the suit fits tight.
