looks awesome....is that shading on the cowl or is it the reflection from the light on the black paint?

 

[streetjudge79]

It's very subtle shading on the cowl. This way it POPS out at you more.

 

[paulcarson]

Definately your best work yet Steve. The flesh looks amazing.

Very realistic flesh color, man. It really stands out from the batman mask.

Hey Steve,

He looks Great Man.

I really like the high light you added to the cowl.

I have a couple suggestions for you. Spray a light coat of
gloss over the Bat emblem on his chest. Also a light
gloss or satin coat over the black makeup around his
eyes. Remeber it was black grease makeup they used
so it would have a slight sheen to it.

Really very good.

Love the sculpt. Great and refreshing idea to do a bust, with just the cutouts to the logo and such. That yellow really breaks the black and has a superb balance with the bright blue Keaton eyes.

I wonder, what do you charge for such a masterpiece?

 

[streetjudge79]

I charge $ 200 per paint up. That doesn't include the glass eyes or shipping back.Thanks Jeff for the tips, I'll do that.
Thanks for the comments guys. This by far is my favorite bust of Howards' to paint. He really nailed the likeness. It gets no better.
