SDguy, I think you're gonna have to get him and maybe even Arkham Knight.

I do think Red Hood looks great! Arkham knight is not happening

I'm due to finally get my original Harley's (both versions) back after getting some repaints done. Looking forward to that.

You're funny, you buy the greyscale ones and paint them anyway.

The only grey scale I painted was joker, because they never made a color joker. All others are either fixes or better paints, but not grey to color.

Thanks. I've seen a couple AC Bats made full color and he looks really really good IMO.

My brother actually did this for me. He struggled quite a bit with the apparently hand painted pinstripes on the original. The weird thing is, the sculpt itself has pinstripes sculpted into it, but the painted lines didn't follow the sculpt in any way. After several unsuccessful attempts to hand paint the lines (we really weren't sure how they originally were able to paint such long consistent lines with no variation in opacity) I suggested he just dry brush the sculpted pinstripes with the lighter purple. It worked well, and I was happy with the result.
