Are you gonna do Catwoman or the Penguin? If you do, that's just AMAZING!

 

[thegreatgalling]

I would LOVE a Catwoman Chuck. If I find a decent sculpt and costume out there, I would jump on it.

As far as contrasting colors for the face...If you have the white paint sealed (clear coat) you could always try to do it with some light brushes of makeup instead of paint/airbrush.

That way if it doesn't work for you you could always wipe it off.

I would also suggest some clear nail polish on the teeth to make them a little shiny. If you do this test it out on some scrap 1st with the paint you used on the teeth to make sure there isn't a bad reaction.

 

[thegreatgalling]

Wow, those are two BRILLIANT ideas M. I really appreciate it! I never thought of using makeup for the accents, and you are very right about the teeth!

 

[Haywire]

Looks great Joe. I like the new pics!

 

[tahenytouchup]

Great, great job! I would add some fake eyelashes too .... will make the eyes that much more realistic! Just a thought .

 

[thegreatgalling]

Thanks guys.

And yep, totally agree about the eyelashes as well. Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Life Size Keaton Batman 1989

I was really excited to put this together, but the inaccuracies I now know about are driving me pretty crazy (Thanks RPF). Don't you hate when that happens? I honestly was perfectly content before I knew the cape was supposed to be latex, the boots were supposed to be Nike, the cowl isn't shaped perfectly. I am thinking I might just need to leave it be for a few weeks and unlearn what I have learned!! Otherwise, I might just end up spending a fortune replacing the whole thing piece by piece! :lol

I thought I read somewhere (a long time ago...) that the cape was made out of leather. Not latex. I know latex shrinks after time.
