Hey guys and welcome to the new board (I know I'm sooooo late)

Here are some Batman projects I have been working on with the new DC Collectibles line. They are such an amazing figures yet many of them have flaws that needs fixing. Anyways this is what I have so far:

Custom Batgirl (Catwoman base)

The Joker - face repaint

Robin - scale issue

Two Face (BTAS) - custom figure

I also like to call this thread "Casimir's 2016 To-Do List." Beautiful work, sir. Especially that Two-Face. Just stunning. C.

I use ultra thin brushes and paint it multiple times until I'm happy with the result.

Are they expensive? Fine points are so frustrating... Great work!!!

These are great! That Two face Head sculpt is incredible.

But don't you think they are going to eventually make that Two face, Batgirl & Posion Ivy from BTAS? Or do you think because they made them in TNBA style they won't make them again?

Naaaah man, I'm sure we will see them very soon! I just don't want to wait

The story is, when I got 1st Catwoman, her leg broke so they send me replacement. Since I have a spare Cats I made Batgirl out of her. For the Two Face I decided that I will only be collecting BTAS and I already had TNBA Two-Face and Mr. Freeze so I made BTAS Harvey. For Ivy, you not gonna believe it but the replacement Catwoman also broke... so I had another spare figure

Great job on all these. Just wanted to get your view on it, because I was deciding if I should buy the Mad Hatter when he comes out, but 2 to turn one into TNBA style.

(Except the head. That might work, with some dental work.) C.
