Nice work, robin needs some more articulation and Batman needs some paint on that yellow belt of his.

I really don't have the foggiest on how to add articulation.
What paint would you suggest adding to the belt?

you could paint the belt in a darker shade and then apply a wash to give it more substance, and maybe the bat on the chest could help make him look better

Yeah it's good work, but it's just not Bats without the bat on his chest.

Hmmm, good feedback, anyone have a good stencil of the bat symbol that they could recommend? There is no way I can that free-hand.

Not sure I see your logic, can you explain?

ok.....what I mean is that im so used to seeing the FH sculpts for the DCUC figs, as well as similar proportions on the JL cartoons. Now that you added MU proportions, it just seems awkward. Howevor, i would like to see you do more customs in this scale, with other DC characters. Maybe I just need to get used to seeing them in the MU format for a while. Its...new.

Ahhh! Now I get it. I have a bunch. I'll have to start posting them. I have made Cyborg, Captain Atom and a few others but have you ever checked out the later DCIH figures? They were smaller than the MU scale but not by much and they were articulated.

They had knees and elbows, but that hardly counts these days.

Bats is nice! Robin... not so much. You can't call it an MU Robin if he has no MU parts :P

Um...it had MU...er...character, yeah, um, sure.

Anyway the DCIH figures in the final waves had head, knee, elbow, wrist and ankle articulation and were a big step up. Look up Deathstroke for the perfect example.
