Nope, now it just looks white like the one I took with the flash,
though you managed to add some pink in there too.

That's why I don't bother with photo shopping stuff, most of the time
fixing one thing messes up another.

I will post new pictures with the next version that will look right,
I took these at night and didnt use any extra lights, that's why
they came out bad.

or you could include a white piece of paper in the shot so I could sample it to tell photoshop "No, this is supposed to be white!" Then it can fix everything else...

well actually I just found the white space in your pictures in the frames you have on the wall, used that to key all the other colors from... this any better?

Sometimes you can use the camera settings to help out with that... the little lightbulb setting on mine helps to prevent that yellowing (which usually occurs on close-up shots using tungsten bulbs).

But either way I think we get the idea... and the final color isn't super important as I imagine many of these will be given a camo deco, or at least weathered a bit.

Its much worse, it looks green, so if you wouldn't mind getting rid of that picture, I would rather not have photo shopped images of the clothes and what not that I do because I don't want any confusion as to what things actually look like, I could have photo shopped them if I wanted to, I also could have gotten off my ass and gotten out another light, but I chose not to and instead just pointed out they color wasn't right because I was feeling lazy.

This isn't the finished one anyhow so it doesn't matter at the moment.

oh... well excuse me then...

 

[Vivisect]

I just don't want this thread flooded with photo shopped pictures with the more inaccurately colored pictures than what I'm already posting.

 

[ProgMatinee]

[Chakaman]

To be honest, wasnt even looking at the color. I was just looking at the superb craftsmanship.

why even photoshop this??

 

[barryo]

the texture on that material looks great........as well as the overall craftsmanship. great job.

 

[Vivisect]

Thanks guys, I'm glad it everyone is pleased so far.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Bill I keep looking at this and I just am still in amazement.. it looks so good

I took a new picture today of the cloak that has a more accurate color.

Well I was working my ass of this mourning on a bunch of Weequay gear and some other bits until my productivity
came to a complete stop when my wife came home with a new toy for me, It may not be Star Wars related but it is
still freakin sweet

This is my first Hot Toys figure and I have to say I don't think this will be my only one for long, I think I need a
Batman to go with him. I was looking at the regular version of the HT Joker for a while but after seeing it in person
at a Chicago comics down the street I didn't like the head sculpt that much and seeing this one didn't made make
the other one look any better for me.

I also now think it should be a law that every 1/6 scale figure should have the moving eyeballs.

The only problem I have with this thing is the green vest is way to tight so the snaps they use show, I fixed it a bit
by replacing the snaps with one I have that are thinner and smaller but its pretty much futile. Maybe I will try and
see if a slim TT will help, I think this is a narrow shoulder TT, so if someone with access to both could let me know
if the armpit to armpit measurement would be smaller on a slim TT. If that will work I can mabee use the original
body for the cop suit and head instead of selling it, along with the other bits I don't need.

Anyhow now that I almost got this guy the way I want him I'll get back to work now and get some stuff done.

Congrats on your first HT figure... its amazing how far they have moved the bar over the last few years.

And your wife sounds like a keeper

Also... the cloak looks killer. Really like how its shaped up.

Thank you, and yea she's earned herself a few more years.

Everything comes at a cost though, shes been wanting me to put together a set of custom
1/6 scale Addams Family figures from the the old TV series for a long time now. Looks like
that time is coming soon, or should I hold out for Batman first.

 

[the dude person]

Nice Joker, I pieced mine together from the 1st one they made by getting all the parts separately off eBay...

I have the 1st (not DX) The Dark Knight version of Batman, it is super freakin' awesome! He has rubber boots... But the ankles can be moved and posed and they stay hoewever you put them! He's really great, doesn't even need a stand because he can stand up on his own, even in some more dynamic poses...

Hot Toys is amazing, you definitely need more of their figures!

 

[Boba Felder]

@Vivisect....Oh Yeah that Joker and Batman are VERY tempting.....

BTW...what I wanna know....The cloth you use for that cloak,gotta pretty natural hang to it....or did you tweak the cloak alot before you shot that picture???

Now here is a question for you ...could I get back to you if my attempt on that Ubese cape fails????
