Cool!

Black Mask body?

What head?

Does this look infected?


Thanks Chief

Yes Black Mask
The head is a cast one - I tend to believe Angel Forge or perhaps one of its predecessors. I don't think it's a shrink, though I could be wrong.

The Black Mask body took to dye pretty well too. The joints sadly did not, which is the main flaw of this, as the paint hasn't worked well on them either. I may still add a bicep swivel (the biggest problem with the base figure) and may or may not swap the hands out.

Yes, definitely infected.

ALSO - just noticed I need to touch up Blue Bats' mask.

The entire Ras figure looks like he was shrunk down. Great parts choices all around on him.

Thanks pluv. I can't claim any kind of brilliance. Just right parts in front of me at right time. Thanks for a comment you made elsewhere to recommend the sword too. Soon as I get the bicep swivel down I'll be happy

hey thanks man!

Was talking to a couple buds, and they wanted to see me go through with adding the swivel arms to Ra's. For some reason I first decided to add a bicep swivel. I've done those before, and they never quite turn out how I envision (primarily because of a lack of precision in the cuts). Anyway, I didn't feel like messing around to get the arms fixed once I did that, so I basically made a new figure instead.

This time I added an elbow joint (which I should have done in the first place). The paint is also brighter this time. Which is strange because the first one is painted green over a green dye job. This one is green over a black dye job. Go figure. But he really is a legit action figure now, with all the points of articulation you could ask for on a suited figure (IMHO).

Image

(I know I have to get the right hand to fit better, and I see some small paint touch ups - all pending)

changing my Joke also. Basically the Multiverse figure, with added elbow artic and new lower arms, repaint, and the head from my prior custom. I may still dry-brush the coat to get rid of the shine it has now.

Then to stick with the completionist nature of this thread, Batgirl, as previewed from a WIP thread:

Finally got another key Rogue knocked out. Riddler uses the same Black Mask base body as Ra's used. In fact, this started out as Ra's, and has since had the arm articulation fixed, and the legs shortened.

Head is a cast of Dexter. Cap by LEGO. Cane is a mixture of a lightsaber (thanks to kilcarr and pluv), a leg peg (for the bottom), Loki's horn and apoxy for the "?"

and a group of some finished Rogues

That was kilcarr's call on the cane. I just seconded it. I don't know what it is about the Riddler, but he's just more imposing when he's in a suit. The patterned vest is a nice touch.

I don't know why I haven't given any props here yet, bindy; but everything here deserves a butt-ton of them.

Except the lack of Carrie Kelly and Dr Leslie Thompson, which is just shameful.
