Interesting. Yeah, let's see'em.

I think it looks great, the arms looked almost too long anyway, there only a fraction shorter but the difference can be seen in-hand.

Now shortening the arms was not my intention but it's an added bonus in my eyes!

Looks Good Calci! Have you (or someone else) tried putting the shirt on the Advance TT without sanding the arms? Well, I'll be displaying him without the blazer and the coat and just wanted to know if I should try that? Thx!

Yeah, it doesn't look right. Shoulders are broad and the biceps bulge out. Sand them arms down bro

Is it just me, or is the head a tad too big for that body?

No, it is indeed bigger then the standard hot toys sculpt but the size of the sculpt looks just about perfect inhand and even more so once the other two layers go on him.

Fyi all Hot toys sculpt are undersized, the sideshow sized heads are actually proportionately more accurate.

Ah, I see. You have a point.

Maybe also because the hair's volume is a bit too thick as well?

My HT Bruce Wayne sculpt is clearly undersized

I will be weathering mine when I get it just like I weathered the 1/1 I worked on. I have already weathered the rest of the outfit including the shoes so now I am just waiting on the overcoat.

Um..how exactly do you weather 1/6 clothes? ..can you give me a few tips?, I have only ever done weathering on my Ironman figures with that tamiya powder.

I can't find any of my older pics as I cleared out a lot from my photobucket account. I will post pics later of my weathering thus far. As far as tips the tamiya weathering kit works great but I like to add depth and layers to the weathering so I using a little bit of white and brown acrylic paint mixed together and then rub it into the areas of the coat that need it. Then to add a little depth and make everything look natural take some black India ink mixed with water and rub it into areas of the coat that look stained.

Um ..not sure if I would rub paint into the suit , I would be afraid I'd go overboard and ruin it!

Yeah it's a gamble but looks great once it is done. I will post pics of my overcoat once I get it.
