The Jason's Batman Returns Batarang

My latest replica is the Batman Returns "Super Batarang". I made a master out of aluminum and sheet styrene. I then made a silicone RTV mold. From the mold I cast the batarang is black resin. The batarang was then painted. For the display screen I put a piece of white reflector tape in the cutout. On top of the white reflector tape I put a transparency of the graphic. I then poured clear epoxy over the transparency. The reflector tape reflects ambient light through the transparency to give a subtle glow like a real LCD screen.

I'm very happy with it. Take a look and let me know what you think.
