TAKING ORDERS: 1966 light up Batphone [DoggieDoc]

[DoggieDoc]

Here is yet another one that looks almost orange.

As you can see, this is why I was trying to not get too caught up in the exact color, because it isn't consistent in the show itself, and it's REALLY inconsistent in replicas that you find out there.

I agree. I really like the coloring of the middle photo where Bruce has both of his hands on the bust.

The lighting on the show and the gels made everything look different. The Batman costume especially has been a discussion over the years due to color variation. Then, once you see the outfit in person, it looks completely different than it appeared. I’m not sure if there was more than one bust used as a prop, but the orange tint and reddish brown tint seem like a lighting anomaly.

Agreed. This will be my goal.

I like the color, my only question is whether metallic is the best choice.

I agree that the metallic flakes look a little off. I'm sure the perfect paint is out there somewhere, just a matter of finding it. Thanks for working so hard to get everything just right! This is gonna be great!

I agree with your goal for the color.

It’s impossible to capture it accurately short of seeing the actual prop in person. I’d just pick one and model it after that.

 

[DoggieDoc]

Ok i think I've got it....

 

[DoggieDoc]

And here... we...go...

Soooo much better! Nice work Andy?

Awesome

Thanks! And just so everyone knows it is actually a little less"reddish" looking. I didn't realize I had the saturation turned up a bit on my camera so it pulled the redder color out more in the photos

Ok, folks, I know it's getting kind of old hearing this, but I am ready to move forward with these things. My printer has REALLY been giving me fits, but I finally have all the replacement stuff I need and I will be trying to start the large-scale printing of everything. I will come up with a final price and will likely take deposits for this one.

If you all could let me know if you are still interested that would be great.

 

[Raymond F.]

Oh one hundred ******* percent my man. Such a work of art.

 

[Jaymig926]

Yup I’m ready !

 

[Elgreco]

Absolutely interested!

 

[mailalan]

I definitely want one. Maybe two sets. Hoping you offer the black phone as well.

Did someone post a picture of it? I'd like to see it.

I thought someone did and you mentioned that it was like your tan phone you had made.

I’m shocked you have to ask me, interested all day every day.
