    Wow, that's a real beauty of a Batman. I've never heard of these folks before so I checked them out on the UEM site (thanks for that tip). This is definitely my favorite of what I saw there.
    Thanks for posting,
    Craig :)

    I really like this, and a couple of the others as well Jay! I wish the large rock base was cast seperately so you had a choice to use it or not. Thanks for posting this up!

    Turner Batman Bust

    This is very nice and a must get if you can get in your hands !! Very nicely painted too.

    Jay -- you can always cut the bust from the stand and add in your own support I guess, but either way this is a very good sculpt, there are a lot of good Sci Fi units around that are worth having.

    Thanks very for posting. RobH.:eek:

    Thanks for posting, Ric and I'm glad you guys like 'em!

    Here he is with a couple of his buddies, inspired by the artwork of Jim Lee and Frank Miller. If you are a Batman reader and a fan of the artists, you'll see that the particular likenesses are spot on.

    The Bats below were painted in acrylics by the very talented Jennifer Lujan.

    Behind Kane's Batman, what kind of Batman is that? That Robin beside him is Tim Drake?
    Those above did you already release them?

    Behind him are the Quitely Batman and Robin (Damian Wayne) and yes, they are in hand now.

    I think i will begin to collect all of them, except Mignola and vampire Batman that i don't like the design but the other are fantastic.

    I have all but the Kane Robin, Nightwing, and the Barbara Gordon Batgirl. They are all top-notch and are going to be a blast to paint. Thank God for my birthday money!

    Great

    Just thought I would mention that I received two of the busts today.

    The sculpts are superb, cast in a hard cream color resin. They are perhaps the best large scale resin casting work I`ve ever seen. The busts need maybe 5 min. of prep at most. Then to painting.

    Most highly recommended !
