Jim Lee Inspired Dark Knight

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Erick that looks killer man!

But any chance of sculpting an integrated cowl onto him? It would make bashing him FAR FAR easier and I'm sure people wouldn't mind paying a little extra for the effort

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Great work although i'm not a fan of the mouth expression.
Looks too much DREDD like.

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

THis ne is also by Eric but i think i like the style better

Less wrinckled in the mouth area

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

I agree, would be nice to have it closer to that if possible

I also like the folds in the ear and back of the neck on that version, nice touch

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Have to agree with void and elvis. The current sculpt is still badass, but I would also prefer it to be more similar to the statue, with the mouth less wrinkely and less sloped down at the ends.

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Ok, I am interested, but worried about what we will use for the suit, body etc. Can anyone chime in (as I am a super novice but also a Batman fanatic) so I can then commit and get on the list

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

So it's just the head and no cowled neck?

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

That statue sculpt is fantastic. I'd love to get one like that. I agree, the current one, though beautifully sculpted, is a bit too wrinkly for me. Would work well for a more Frank Miller style Batman.

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Excellent sculpt Erick, so badass but I'm agree with the guys on the comments! I think that The Jim lee's batman is more square and smooth (less wrinkles!)
I try to make a fast mockup of what it could looks like if it can help!

ps: I'm big fan of your work and i'm not able to sculpt 10% of what you

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Wow!! That mockup is perfect

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

looks good i like the pissed off look

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

It looks great, but I agree with everyone else's feelings on it.

Could you also sculpt one with a cowl? ray:

The cowl integrated into the sculpt is necessary for a proper look if you ask me.

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

if i sculpt the cowl on, the neck won't turn. are you guys talking about a long neck head?

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

Talking about something similar to the Hot toys OC Batman which has integrated cowl

Yeah articulation is impaired but I think majority would sacrifice that for the sleeker look it gives

 

[marker2037]

Re: Jim Lee bats interestet thread..

exactly. I'd sacrifice.

Heres a image of elvis custom batman. This is what we mean by a integrated cowl i think it will make the custom look a lot better once finished.

image?????

Will post some tonight but the one above is also a good example, need to also show some pics of the back of the head/cowl
