Then again... he is a blind superhero. We should cut him some slack.

The billy clubs look great though, no chopsticks for this version
Not my favorite version either.

Costume looks really good. I would prefer making the fighting sticks a bit larger imho.

The base i don't know. I don't like that the bases are getting more and more plain. Hope that too many statues don't lead to plain, simple bases. With XM i would have hoped for something more like this: (especially the flow of the fighting sticks and the strong position, the wip seems to have a mixed feeling, like is he waiting for his opponent, or is he sliding downwards, or is he about to leap forward?)

I think his fighting sticks look spot on, any thicker and they start to look like metal pipes, these need to double as a blind mans walking cane.

The base isn't even finished guys, look closer it's an abstraction of polygons still.

xm's modern quasi realistic take on costumes is one of the things I like best about them, this is no exception. it looks modern and classic all at once - just awesome, incredible sculpt. that guy is freakin talented I checked out some of his other work on his youtube channel, awesome stuff

No i didn't mean thicker, but longer, like the clubs on the gentle giant mini bust.

But the bases are the thing to worry about lately with XM. Thanos base is only good considering what the alternative was, but i liked the first skull base on the convention the best. Movie Iron Man Mark VII base change aka the Iron Surfer, hm no. Hope they can create more bases like magneto and phoenix. Something special. When paying that much money, the base also has to have a wow effect.
