If i get a second one ill do this. I don't want to destroy the one that came with the batwing but i did buy the batwing to repurpose it for the 3 inch figures but I don't want to glue the seats in so what i might do is create a half shell to go into the cockpit that is only attached with Velcro strips and put the seats and navigation computer within the half shell then i may use use some air dry clay or greenstuff to make an insert to blackout the backside of the cockpit. i find it weird that they make the giant batwings canopy so open like they did but whats even more weird is that they had an idea to make it for the 12 inch figure which can only take a nap in that thing lol..

LOL! I get ya. Well, for what it's worth, the figures when sold alone are only $10 to $12 tops, so it's not like you are really gambling with a lot of money. And, you can repurpose the Batwing for the smaller figures....just a thought....either way, have fun!

I've followed your steps, but when I painted the hood with black acrylic, it turned out very shiny. How can I make it matte like yours?
@LesWalker2023
Жыл бұрын
Depends on what type of acrylic paint you used. I use a flat acrylic enamel made by Vallejo (from hobby stores) and then spray all my figures and repainted toys with a Japanese spray called Mr Hobby Mr Super Clear Matt in a grey can. It runs about $12 to $16 in most markets. It is quite toxic so ventilate well, and mist it on, don't spray it on hard. Layers are better than heavy coats. It will really seal your figures well. Best of luck!

I simply go to a fabric store like JoAnn's and look. There are several types of pleathers there, some are quite thin, with hardly any noticable pattern. They drape well, are heavy, and hang well. Then there are others that have more pattern and look a little more like real leather. Some of those drape well, and some are too thick. Too stiff. I found a great fabric once, that I got enough of to last me years, it's all gone now, but it had a sort of leather quality to it, but it was a one ply fabric that also draped well. Not sure how to tell you beyond that. I go by feel mostly, and hope it will last and not peel later on. Someone else may more more about fabrics and pleathers to tell you more. Best I can do.

This looks incredible. I may try this with mine.. I’m normally Just a custom paint guy but this inspired me. Ever worked with Apoxsee putty before so… that is sort of daunting. What paints did you use for his face? And was that hand paint? Almost has to be due to the detail, right?
@LesWalker2023
Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the kind words. On one of these videos at the end I put the info on Magic Sculpt putty and how to get it. Apoxsee I assume is about like Magic Sculpt, in that as long as it is a 1 part to 1 part equal putty of sorts, and is a slow setting, workable medium, that is sand-able, etc., then they are probably about the same. Pour casting stuff is different. This is like a hardening modeling clay that you mix the two equal parts. I just roll little balls until they match size, and start folding until they blend. That way, you only use a little bit at a time, out of a 5lb kit, which is a lot, and can last a LONG time. Hand painting is all I do on any surface. I don't own an airbrush.
