BATMAN discussion

[The Bat]

OK, so it was driving me nuts as to what didn't look "Adams" about the head, so I photoshopped this image based on yours.

I reduced the overall size of the head, I reduced the width, I made the jaw stronger, made the eyes more like Adams drew them, made the eyebrows straight, and made the head taller between the eyebrows and the top of the head. And now it looks like Adams to me! And probably doesn't to someone else! LOL!

MY GOD!!!! You've NAILED IT!!!!!!That's IT...that's a Neal Adams BATMAN!!

BRAVO!!

[The Sentry]

Man, when I read Batman comics as a kid this is what I saw, never did like the "nubs" for ears. He looks great! Yeah Doc, this would be a GREAT Batman to have!

Apologies to the sculptor, who did a great job with the original.

Of course, it doesn't exist, and it's easy to manipulate a photo, not as easy to make in 3D.

Maybe it's just me, and the head looks nice if not a little too big, but it doesn't look like Neal Adams art to me at all.
It looks more like Infantino with the big eyes, curvy eyebrows, and round chin. But I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder.

Hmmm...now that I re-look at it, maybe it's a combo of the two. Maybe it's just a little too cartoony to look like Adams to me.

Yeah...I can kind of see what you mean...it does look more "Cartoony" then Neal Adams Art. But I guess...that would make it even more "Mego innocent"?

[The Bat]

okay, okay, i get it, but in the future please try to show a little restraint when naming your threads. i have to go change my pants now.

Sorry...but I knew it would be the quickest way to get your attention.

[Earth 2 Chris]

See, I told you!

But never do that again. You destroyed my hopes and dreams just now.

[GAFan]

Okay, you got me. Nice Batman though.

[censy]

Wow! I gotta agree, one of the best I have seen. Great job!

That's one of the nicest Bats I've ever seen

[60'schild]

Perfect in every way. (EMCE/Mattel take note!)

[rcbats1]

Very nice indeed!...but I too prefer to let light do it's job on the cowl. Still very nice custom though!.....and as far as the EMCE/Mattel/Mego Batman I want a removable cowl!

He looks really nice. I think you're onto something. Follows the EMCE\Mego style great maintaining classic elements, and adding slight modifications to an original look. I really like this one. Nice work. I like the black on the cowl. It separates him from the originals.
