I think I prefer the smoke variant....
As for the color one, I would paint Ivy skin normal color to help tone down all those colors, I would also use a darker metallic blue on Mr. Freeze, as the blue now is to bright, I would also give Harley a more darker maroon red vs the bright red.. and tone down Joker's bright green shirt and hair a bit..
When painted some of the characters defiantly have a BTAS vibe to them.. I keep going back and forth on this one....

Colors look like the Skittles palette. Incredible sculpt, very poor paint app. Please, let’s see a muted application more fitting to the mood of the piece. Hope you guys enjoy NYCC and thank you for sharing the progress.

I wish they would change it too but I don't think they're going to.

Yeah I have a feeling that this is more representative of what the actual paint looks like. Thanks for posting!

I was hoping for a darker piece. This looks like a party piece. It wouldn't look out of place on top of an elaborate birthday cake.
