Wow, the dark knight looks amazing. Very fine detail work without losing the grimness of the overall effect.

Thanks! Glad you like it. That was the intention Edit: Sorry I missed your comment!

Got around to finishing the Dark Knight. Now complete with his Batpod.

Batpod.


Model was a bit of a pain to put together. Although I find that a lot with Knight Models. Or maybe it's just their older stuff. The more keen eyed viewers may notice the bike is missing a piece. There's these two wire bits that come up from the underside that connect to the arms of the bike. I think I may have chopped those bits by accident. Minor detail I'm not too fussed about.

It's mounted on a 50mm lipped base because there aren't any lipped bike bases I know of. A 60mm base would be more ideal but again, I cant find any that are lipped. There's a bit of overhang and very small contact points on the base but it'll do. I've also picked up the Eaglemoss Tumbler Batmobile so I can take some comparison pics later.

Following that I just wanted to paint something nice and easy. So here's the next couple models that were relatively simple and quick to paint up.

First up is Miller Batman, Classic comic costume, nothing too fancy. Very top heavy model that took a few tumbles and had a few humpty dumpty situations :(. His ears and toes you can see are a bit stubbed.


I think his face looks a bit more 'Sad old man' than 'Grizzled Veteran'. lol oops. Still nice enough model and fun to paint even if simple.

And next we have another member of the Bat family: Batwoman. Sorry this pic isn't that great.


Again, just wanted something simple to paint, could probably spend a bit more time on her but I think I'll move on.

Currently working on the SWAT team to finish up my Batman DKR crew and then we'll see and go from there.

That's it for now. Thanks for looking

Really nice work, your style really suits these models, that bike looks amazing.

Top work on the Bats of all flavours, I particularly like how the Miller one has come out a lot more saturated and less shiny than the others, it suits the comic book style really nicely.

Nice work all round.
