I've had this finished for almost a year but misplaced it.
I was going for a bigger less trim Batman in his late forties early fifties. Not fat but big and bulky a formidable looking man.

What do you think did I accomplish it?

I would change the thread title to 'Dark Knight Returns' since this is obviously from the comic; but that's about the only thing I'd change. Since the story is so gritty, some blackwashing might help enforce that mood here, but it's really great as is. I demand a Carrie Kelly fig as well.

AV I knew you'd ask for Carrie................Not sure I could pull it off. I do remember a customizer that made one, maybe he could send me his?

Here are a couple pics to compare his size to vehicles he could use.

Good on ya, Joey.

Say, I'm gonna need a bigger pic of that RHINO, please. Did you make mods to Bat-RHINO it? Are those tail fins I see? I think I might have to get another RHINO...

Yeah I did........................but did not finish....I suck at vehicle mods. Put fins on added the push bumper with symbol to the front modded the tail fin on the copter and side fins as well . I would really like someone to take it from here and finish it .


I'll try to take more pics of it later

My favorite Batman design, and I think you did a fine job capturing the likeness. Dig it! The facial expression in dead on.

Recipe? I'm seeing some Wrrcker in there, but maybe Showdown Thor arms?

This is a good start for Red Son dirty Commie Bats, too.

Yeah, AV, I have tried to talk Joe into doing Red Son Batman before, and he didn't seem interested. Maybe we should gang up on him?

Nice work though Joe. Better finish that RHINO-mobile, or I'll still decide to make mine afterall and claim it was my idea... :razz:

Thanks for the comments guys.

The recipe is simple a modded crusher with Thor arms.

I'm hesitant to show off the Bat-rhino because it's not done and I haven't had the inspiration to finish it and I don't want you guys ripping off my idea till it's done ;-) .

Fantastic Bats and his Bat-Rhino looks brilliant.
