Great job there Coco! Really nice work. That's crazy how those little changes make it look like a completely different Joker sculpt. My only gripe is I don't think the mouth or expression lends itself to the regular look for some reason, even though you clearly matched and replicated the paint job. Maybe I'm just too accustomed to the mime make up/mouth/done up eyes combo? That and the brows might benefit from being more angled and "mean".

Still, amazing what a few little changes does. It's the same deal with Fiend's fantastic repaint/resculpt. Slightly tweaking the hair and the eyes made it 10x more menacing than it was as a stock.
 
^That looks fantastic.:clap

Thanks, AZ! :hi5:

Thanks, D! Its definitely not what comes to mind or the common look for him. I'd love to have a green silk shirt and purple neck tie. It reminds me more of scenes in Vale's apartment than anything.

Looks great!

I hope Hot Toys does a Nicholson Jack Napier/ Gangster at some point.
 
Nice repaint, but I think the mouth is very strange for that look. The photoshops that were flying around kinda showed that in advance but I was still very curious to see it done, even got an extra head to give it a go. Not sure now. But very nice job regardless.

I'll second that point mate. :lecture :pray:

Also wonderful repaint Cocoboloboy and as you say it would be great to see your repaint with a green silk shirt and purple tie. I think they would compliment your repainted head sculpt beautifully.

Thanks! I'm hoping for that too.

Thanks! It's not the most used expression in the movie but it's there. I added a bit more red to the bottom lip but I think that's about it. He actually looks mischievous and creepy on the shelf as is so I'm pretty happy with him.

I'll be looking forward to what you do with your DX14.

Thanks! If I had any skills in that department I'd be making a set. I wonder if anybody would be willing to make a run or if anybody besides me would be interested.
 
DX14 repaint...

Well done,Coco! :clap A couple suggestions. I'd make the eyebrows more angular like mine.

I think they're more accurate and give him more of a menacing look. And purple eye shadow. Did you give him some?

If I pick this up I think I'm going all the way. Poof hair and all.

Yep, he's got some purple eye shadow. Very subtle but it's there. He's a done deal for me but thanks for the eye brow suggestion. REALLY looking forward to yours when you get him finished. I can't recommend this sculpt enough. He looks so lifelike with the regular Joker make-up.

 
As long as you're happy that's all that counts. :) He looks good up there with the hat.

Actually, I've been wanting to get a second DX08 sculpt as well and just doing the eyebrows and eye shadow but keeping the hat hair so he can wear the hat. I'd really like to see what he looks like with it one and the mods I have.
 
Sorry to be an *** guys as it has probably been asked to death but after my recent stain problem with my Bane figure I was moving my Jack Joker today and I got all paranoid that his hat (which has been on for ages) left a mark along that deep wrinkle on his forehead.

Basically looking again I think it is okay but I was wondering if leaving the hat on for long periods of time will stain the head?

Thanks.

After re-posing my DX 08 Joker I did find a dark stain along the wrinkle at the top of its forehead. Any idea on how to remove this guys? Thanks in advance.

Maybe if you had the hat on for a while then maybe it could be that because you have not seen the wrinkle for a while that maybe it looks darker than you remember?

I'm not doubting you mate it but maybe it just looks dark because you now see the wrinkle?

Yeah thats what I was thinking as well. I had the figure since April and I did have it posed with the hat since. But when when comparing it to others it does seem a little dark. Cheers.

That looks awesome man - the repaint looks excellent there! :duff
 
DX14 repaint...





Man Coco... I WANT that! As much as I love the original DX08 sculpt, the Mime Joker edges it out for authenticity to Nicholson. Great work! :clap

As for the DX08 head, it looks pretty sharp on Mime Joker body. Definitely gives it an Alex Ross vibe.
