SHS Adams style Bats and modern Nightwing

[taliesincrow]

Hi All I am new here and wanted to share a couple of my Batman customs. Hope you all like them.

Being a child of the 70's the batman I remember most from the comics was Neil Adams and Dick Giordano's version. I tried to capture that look and think I came pretty darn close. What do you guys think?



And here is a pic of Batman and Nightwing

I have touched up the spots where the paint rubbed, and given Nightwing another coat of black so that the red dosent show through (it only shows up in pictures) but havent taken any more pix yet.

I caught some flack over at joe customs when I posted Nightwing because I chose to give him the ponytail, but being a long haired freak myself I liked him better with the pony tail.

Thanks for looking!

I dont recognize the base figure for the Batman here but He looks great! Is it a re-paint or modified for this look, what was done?
Love the paintwork done on Nightwing especially the choice of blue used. Excellent work.

Oh, sorry I guess a recipe would be helpful LOL

Batmans body is a Marvel Super Hero Showdown Magneto, with Microman Batman head, and SHS Thor and Microman capes spliced together at the neck line.

Nightwing is a SHS Dare Devil body with some Star Wars Jedi head.

;D

OK not to geek out but if you only knew how long I have been a HUGE fan of your work you would know what a thrill it is for me to get a complement from you.
Thanks Matt, and I'm glad you like him.
And Retro, thanks to you as well
