(Before Glassman) head,LOL
I saw the headcast Glassman did by shrinking the Hot toys version and decided I´d give Mr Reeve a fresh, renewed try, and put a lot of effort to it. Now I´m happy with it, cause the casted head is amazing, and needed a well crafted body to match. After many tryouts, I decided that the Mattel Superman from the Batman 2 pack had the perfect looking boots, just needed some sculpt. I used DCUC Blue lantern Flash body to minimize paint rub on the shoulder area and because of his slimer build. That body, with the 2 pack supes lower arms and legs gives the figure a slicker, taller look, very close to Mr Reeve´s body proportions. So, I used fixit sculpt to cover muscle definition on his ribs, biceps and thighs. Then I sculpted belt and upper section of the boots.

A while back I bought a DCUC 12 pack Superboy prototype, with the intention of making a movie masters Chris Reeve Supes.

![[Azrael and Bane Prototypes Repaint] Hey guys just sharing alittle fixing I did. I bought thse prototypes on-line for really cheap, compared with the price these factory figs go these days.They were casted in the right colors and were missing some paint detail only. On Azrael, I drybrushed old gold on gauntlets, shoulder and chest, painted medal and stripe on cowl, mask detail, eyes and flames on gauntlets. On Bane, the work was minimum. The skin parts were already airbrushed, except for the left arm, which I got from a FB trade page. So I just painted the mask, zipper on his head and belt buckle. Really happy with them, and above all with the money I saved, specially on Bane. But since Bane took so little work done, I submitted both on a single entry.

![[Superman: Doomsday] Been wanting to do this for a while, and finally got into it, after a failed try, in which I ruined the DCSH superman torso when it had torn clothes and nipples already sculpted, the project was left in stand by. Then I got a headless and armless DCUC Hawkman in a trade, and the project re started. So, hes made of DCUC Hawkman torso with sculpted torn clothes, Ultraman head with sculpted hair and bruises, and DCSH Superman arms and lower body, with sculpted bruises and torn clothes. He is a little loose on the arms and head, since the body cracked again when it was already sculpted and painted, but stands and displays well. I aldo made a ripped cape on a pole in a display base for him, emulating the mythical cover from Superman 75.
I am really happy with him, love the bruises, blood and all that, and was fun to make.
Hope you like him as much as I do

I love the DCUC nightwing, but I think he is too bulky. I also like the Arkham city version build and uniform details, but he is too tall and has an ugly face. So I combined both.

I' d like to share my first figure of 2013, Commish Gordon. He' s a DCUC Question prototype body and MM Harvey Dent head with sculpted eyebrows and mustache. He' s been in the workbench for a while, till I decided to finish him. Wasn't so sure about the colors I' d use. Initially, I was gonna give him black pants, but after seeing the one Crymson vampire did, which I liked a lot, I decided to go for a khaki on the pants, and so I kept his whole attire in browns. I really like the result. Glasses are from Buffy Wesley, and I also sculpted and painted a pipe from scratch, with the old cotton trick to stimulate smoke.

![[Matt Murdock-Daredevil Movie Style] I used the head of movie DD, sculpted on him to
'unmask" him, and put it on Harvey' s body. I only painted the neck and tie on Harvey, for lazyness and because I thought the color suited Matt. His cane is a lollipop stick with a piece of DD' s stick, some pleather, and a tip from a DCUC arrow from GA. Glasses are from McFarlen shaft, painted with Tamiya clear red. I know he doesn' t look too much like Ben Affleck, but like I said in my prior DD entry, this was kind of a test, from which I learned, and was fun to do.

![[Amazing Spiderman Unmasked Variant Repaint] Just a straight up repaint, cause as usual with hasbro, the figure is really good in terms of sculpt and articulation, but zero paints. This is the third time I repaint the amazing spidey, counting the marvel select verion, and hopefully, the last. This time,after the proper basecoats, washes and drybrushes with vallejo scarlet red and flat blue, I gave him a last coat of tamiya clear red, and a wash of tamiya metallic blue. When mixed with water, blue lost its metallic shine, but I am happy with the result anyways.
