While I can definitely appreciate your mockup Joel, I must say, for myself, I still quite like the colors they went with. Every time I watch sisko's video of it I'm blown away by the colors.

I'd be fine with the statue if it looked like the way they made it, or yours. I find both appealing.

+1 for having the horse dark in color... awesome rendering...

They can easily fix it by trying again but for reasons beyond my understadning, I get the feeling XM might be sticking to their guns on this one. Hope to be wrong.

If I knew any talented painters in Australia I’d still get this and have it redone.
My first impression when it got fully revealed, I was...oke its nice...but it did not wow me away like poison ivy did. I find that a beautiful sculpt like this need the right colours so its still recognizable that its still batman. It could be that they did not want a second batgirl paint scheme and went more creative paint wise. Don't get me wrong I don't hate it how its now painted it just feels a bit to bronze uniform (may contradict that I want a black statue), a grey base with a light bronze horse and a dark black/bronze batman. But really hoping for some adjustment on the paint side, maybe its just idle hope like you said. (I don't have facebook or I would explain this mater to them)

Getting it repaint is pricey for a big statue like this one, I'm already throwing allot of money for a piece for a piece of rock

It’s hard sometimes to picture the colors without seeing the piece in person. For example this page give headache.
