The Lord of the Shadows..................Zartan!

Well, my First Version just wasn't working for me, so I redid him. Although it's a pain to remove or add accessories on the figure, I'm really satisfied with this interpretation of the character. The silver is a little intense, but remains true to my style, so it doesnt bother me too much.....

This version of Zartan is a master of disguise.
Due to his blood disorder (not being able to step into sunlight), he spent many years in solitude. Enduring that severity of loneliness, he became mentally ill and developed several other personalities. Zartan now uses his 'gifts' to his advantage, and works as a freelance assassin.
It is said that only his victims hear his true voice.

Very cool take on the character, I really like this!

If you feel that the silver is too intense, try using Delta Ceramcoat Gleams Metallic Pewter. It is darker and more sinister. I use it almost exclusively when doing "evil" or "dark" characters.

Here is an example of what it looks like after being sealed:

Thanks for the comment Tiger Claw! I 'tried' to do commissions, but was hardly successful........

Spectre, Fist off, I cant get over how great that Bat fig is!! Also the color your referring to is similar to the mix that I use to outline my silver........which now I'm wondering if I should use that as my primary color, and mix a darker silver for the out line....the problem using two different silvers, is I want them to be noticeably different from each other without blending in as if they where one color. I do appreciate the info though.....Thanks

Flatulance, Oops, I mean narceron :whistling: ....... I got that cape from Mr. Doc Rob. You should post it as a want. I'm sure alot of folks have this cape just laying around........



Thanks for the comments guys! :-D

Well the Zartan cape looks to be from a Chap Mei character that looks like a poor man's green faced skeletor.

The other one came from the comic pack Darth Vader that comes with Jedi Leia.
I'm going to use that cape witha Gung Ho and other parts for a future Batman.
