"From the ashes of Arkham, Gotham will fall."

The mysterious (not really) soldier craving to exact vengeance against The Dark Knight, he is equipped with hi-tech armory and ready to get the job done.

This figure is one of a product of my own arrogance. Having started customizing, in early days I thought "hey, that's pretty cool let's make one" and I did, only to be overwhelmed by the amount of details I have to finish. Thus, the making time is super extended to became years. I then researched the comics, another toy figures, and any other source so this figure don't become a forever WIP.

The difficulties includes scuplting a chest armor (I didn't have that many patience and tools back then, so it is seemed rough) and forming an "A" symbol because every toy version has different designs. The body mold itself is not hard to work with, but difficult to mess with because I am afraid to ruin the proportions. Next is sculpted arm guard, shin guard, and lastly, back armor.

The gun is sculpted from recasting usual ML gun and added some details to mimic the special guns.

The head is the most fun part of the entire figure which I finished the first, few years ago. But with the handicap found in the shoulder guards, the head seemed too big and I am not really keen with that.

Overall, this is not a really fun job eventhough it is cool to have this character in 6 inch scale, and after I took some photos I am not really pleased with the proportion. But finishing one almost-never-to-be-finished job is one big relief.


-----------------UPDATE------------------
After I took photos and uploaded this boy, I think my OCD kicked in because there was a great gap between his shoulders, so I added a plastic plate with some rubber mechanics, spray them with steel colors, and them shoulders looked a lot better. The shoulder pad additions could tolerate some shooting and moving poses.
