I'm torn between moving the head a fraction to the left to make it central, or leave it wonky to keep that cheap toy vibe... 
It wasn't intentional (just me rushing as usual), but it does have a certain charm.

That's your "I made it and see everything that's wrong with it" brain talking. I never noticed, I think it looks great. Also, I'll take one please.

Should have a finished (or very close to finished) photo by the end of play today. I've not bothered spamming the thread with updates at it's all tiny little tweaks or mirroring, so nothing exciting to see...
A few leftover blobs of Milliput have been squished together to start a very rough Robin, so hopefully there'll be a very undynamic Dynamic Duo heading this way!

Trying to think of a name for these figures, the Double U. W. F (United Underworld Wrestling Federation) is my favourite so far...
The UU is taken from the Batman movie, the name the villainous collective give themselves!

Ok, I'm calling this one done (not "finished" though, these things are never really finished, you just have to know when to walk away and leave it the hell alone). 
He stands at 1.8" tall and 1.8" wide - I'd love to see it block coloured just like a proper cheapo toy figure, but I'm not going to paint this little sod on the off chance it gets molded and cast some day - anyhoo, I hope the pics have been of interest!

That is unbelievably awesome. As a comic fan and a MUSCLE fan I'm pretty blown away. I was pretty excited when I saw the M.O.T.U.S.C.L.E. He-Man figures but this sculpt is like a hundred times cooler than those ones. You really captured the concept of making Batman look like a MUSCLE character. Was also very cool to see the whole process laid out step by step. Very cool thread and very cool figure. When you cast these I'd love to pick one up for my collection. Cheers

Great job fella! 
I reckon he'd be pretty straightforward to cast too, looking at him.

Great job fella!
Cheers! If anyone is interested in doing a small run of these in rubber, drop me a PM and we can sort something out.
I bought a vac-bin ten or more years ago, but it has sat unused in various garages since then. Now I actually have the space, the rubber has perished, so it shall continue to sit unused for all eternity...
