You better believe it! and Chris has some of the best vids as he steps you through the process! We used his vid on the Star Lord Quad Blaster to make one at home. Great Father-Daughter quarantine project!
Hey Chris, when doing my PatBat I found if you put the figure in warm water, the glue holding the cape on is likely to dissolve. That way you won’t have to futz with the Stanley knife. Another great job btw!
Great video!! Now, do a makeover of the batcycle please!! It looks already very good from the factory but I am sure you can make it even better!! Maybe add some tubing, some more washes, some instruments in the dash..please!!! 😁
I love how detailed the base figure is! I went ahead and customized it a few weeks ago but after your video I wanna revisit it. Great video as always, Chris!
Not bad, Chris! I'm personally not a big fan of using shoe polish for washes on figures because you HAVE to clear coat them and that can get messy. Additionally for washes I don't like scrubbing the figure as it can knock down sharp edge sculpting and soften an otherwise sharp sculpt. I recommend the Testors Model Master acrylics myself. I swear by those paints on figure repaints.
@@AlcyoneSong Pretty good. If you get the flat paints or flat clear flats, make sure you mix them really well or they might come off as semi-gloss. Also, if you CAN find them, get their acrylics, not their enamels. Enamels don't work well on softer plastics. Tamiya Acrylics are a good alternative though, but you have to get used to how they go on, and use a slowing agent to keep them from drying too fast so you have more time to work with them and get a smooth finish.
Hey Chris, can you also do a riddler please? I bought my own and want to try upgrade him but dont know what to do. Plus it would look so cool having batman and riddler together.
I love watching your custom collectibles because they are so cool and I like how you explain what your doing and I like the final results and because of your videos I’ve started doing my own custom figures so thanks for your awesome content and keep up the awesome work 😎👍🏻
wow, that comparison shot at the end is unbelievable. was really hoping you’d mod this guy and he looks sick! hope i can make mine look just as amazing.
I was eagerly anticipating this video, came at the perfect time, as I got my figure a little while ago and wanted to customise it too! The end result here is phenomenal!
You need some 3D printed parts to complete this figure. I bought the leg holster and the sticky bomb gun as well as the movie accurate wrist gauntlet grappling guns. The grappling gun that came with the figure is oversized. I also used the soft cape from the Bendyfig The Batman figure. After painting the little details the figure looks incredible.
Hey, great video, planning on doing something similar. Something Id recommend is going over the metalic areas with a gloss coat, namely the bat symbol knives and some of the chains and such. You can even use nail polish for this. The reason is because some parts of the suit are metallic and should reflect the light differently from his mat suit.
I got lucky and found the batcycle when I was out running errands, I've been dying to pick up one of these for it since. I'm really looking forward to trying this
I'm a Fan from Pakistan, I've always wanted to get these action figures and do these things but now I'm too busy, but seeing what you do makes my day! I feel like a kid all over again.
BRAVO!!! Looks great! Im so glad you went ahead and did this one and I'd knew it was only a matter of time until you pimped the Battinson figure! Im also glad you got the figure without the QC error cape! I've been trying to get that figure and I keep getting the ones with the QC error!!!
Awesome custom.im not confident enough to do the cape but I love doing the shoe polish weathering and silver dry brushing.im not sure about the face as I'm worried I will make it worse lol thanks for the great tips.
This looks amazing! Great work! Something I noticed about the figure is his right hand seems to be sculpted a bit small. I've noticed this on a few other figures, not just from mcfarlene toys though. I wonder why this is.
Excellent work as always man. The only thing that back me up from buying this is that it doesn't have the grappling gun holster on the thigh, i wish McFarlane hurry up and release an updated figure without the need to buy extra parts from someone else
Damn these customs are way better than some of the originals! Now i know why some ppl are into the custom game!😄
You better believe it! and Chris has some of the best vids as he steps you through the process! We used his vid on the Star Lord Quad Blaster to make one at home. Great Father-Daughter quarantine project!
The show polish technique is an absolutely brilliant tip.ive used it so many times.it works literal wonders with SW ships and figures.
Yes,I am also doing their own customization.
of course it would be better, the original had to be mass produced
@@terrakotta6293 yeah,That's exactly what I'm thinking.
Hey Chris, when doing my PatBat I found if you put the figure in warm water, the glue holding the cape on is likely to dissolve. That way you won’t have to futz with the Stanley knife. Another great job btw!
Fabric for the cape pls?
@@premogc8859 that’s where I’m stuck at. My local fabric stores are severely lacking so I’m going to have to look online
@@Vanluxen i mean what is it called? The subtitle reads "pleather" e
@@premogc8859 pleather is just another term for synthetic/faux leather, fabric stores should have some.
@@AcIsTheName thanks my guy
The original figure already looks great, but this makeover makes him really special. Fantastic job!
McFarlane makes some great figures
The details and sculpt of McF toys really pops out when customized
@@shadowanderson2004 they really don't
@@alexanderbanegas7622 okay marvel legends meat rider
The only problem with mc farlane toys is that you need to customise the shit out of them

My son just got one and already has plans to customize it thanks Chris you've been a huge influence on his customizing
It's amazing how only a couple things can take something to the next level.
The end result looks absolutely amazing. Might have to try my hand at this on my figure.
Well done! Night and day on the difference. And it looks sweet!

How is the matte varnish for testers?

I can’t believe how amazing this looks. Great job👍
my good sir, you are quite the artist. Batman looks magnificent after your treatment....makes me want to play with toys again....i am 44! lol
Very helpful and easy to understand explanation of each step. I also love your enthusiasm!
The timing of this video is perfect considering I'm currently customizing my own Battinson figure
I already commented, but wow, just wanted to say that this turned out great. I will look at replacing capes based on this. It really adds so much.
One of my favorite customs Chris! The detail turned out magnificent! What a treat!
Oh man he came out wonderful Chris. I'm definitely gonna try my hand at this once I get my battison figure in
the shoe polish for the face part looks easy but the result is amazing 😮
If ya take off the "butterfly joint" plastic connected on the torso u can get much more posability in the arms without the arm popping off
Perfection. Great job!

Holy guacamole Batman ! That looks incredible. Definitely inspired
Wow, what a difference!! Great job Chris, seriously!
I like what you did on the face, that makes a huge improvement!
Love it I have a new found inspiration for customizing
love the change in the face... looks exactly like in the movie good job

What are the links to those 3D prints?
I love this figure, was really hoping you’d custom it!

I just can’t believe how much better his face looks after only a subtle wash. It really looks high quality now
Thank you Chris!! That was an amazing end result. Love your work! Keep ‘em coming!! Take Care!
Looks incredible! I didn't really like the original figure, but this improves it sooo much
Brilliant job as usual, Chris! You always make figures look stunning!
Great job, I’ll buy this figure and try to follow your steps!
woah nelly!!!! his little suit is grey instead of black now!!!!! hot dog!!!!!!!!
You really brought life to Battinson!! Hell yeah!!
Gorgeous, nicely done Chris
Great job! Yeah, I love that liquitex stuff. Much better out of the airbrush than the spray can.
This is insane! What a difference, especially on the face!
Definitely gonna try this or something like this at least. This figure has so much potential and you've given it the flare it needed.
Wow this figure actually got the eyes down really well. First thing I noticed after the paint job was done
Looks beautiful, man. I was really hoping you'd do this one and the result is, as always, amazing.
Holy hell! Great job, Chris!
Honestly, this is the best custom figure of this Mcfarlane Patman so far!! Good job as always Chris! Cheers from 🇮🇹
I really like the dull black. The original shiny black makes it look like a cheap toy. Great job!
I was hoping you were going to customize this figure! It looks so good!
I bought one yesterday i will definitely follow your tutorial it looks way better
I got lucky and found the batcycle when I was out running errands, I've been dying to pick up one of these for it since. I'm really looking forward to trying this
Wow! Amazing!
Thanks for sharing.
Excellent work once again. good timing too, I had just got this and the batcylce to do myself as inspired by previous customs.
That end result is 🔥 Great work!
Wow, i always admire your Works chris, the results are dope! Can't wait to see the others..
This looks straight from the movie. Amazing!
Brilliant! I’ll be doing this to mine for sure!
The texture in the cape gives me a Keaton Vibe!
Awesome mate turned out heaps good 👍
Gotta get this. I recently customized a figure for the first time and am excited to do it again
Wow, this is superb - I wanna try this!
I’ll have to try out the dull coat…. Good job, well done
Mate, you're insanely talented.
Love what you did with the figure.
I love these, keep em up mate😉
Great looking Batman figure 😉👍
Your work is SO AMAZING!!!!!!!!
You sir, deserves my thumbs up! 👍
Amazing, do you think acrylic paint would work instead of that brown sue polish?
I'm a Fan from Pakistan, I've always wanted to get these action figures and do these things but now I'm too busy, but seeing what you do makes my day! I feel like a kid all over again.
So good! This is gonna be my guide for repainting my mcfarlane The Batman figure. Thank you, Chris!
He's the customizer that we need, but not the one we derserve.
I'm doing almost the same procedure but I'm adding the missing holster to the hip, increasing articulation in the torso, and shortening his lanky arms
Another amazing custom!
Great work Chris, you are an inspiration. Thanks.
Insanely cool and easy to follow. Nearly inspired me to try it myself
BRAVO!!! Looks great! Im so glad you went ahead and did this one and I'd knew it was only a matter of time until you pimped the Battinson figure! Im also glad you got the figure without the QC error cape! I've been trying to get that figure and I keep getting the ones with the QC error!!!
Great transformation. Thanks!
great work Chris!
Always do a bad ass job with customs Chris! 10/10 on this one! You should customize the 12 inch The Batman figure from spin master!
It may not seem that way but that is such a big difference 😱🔥 100% Awesome!!!!
Woooow! Fantastic job mate.
Awesome custom.im not confident enough to do the cape but I love doing the shoe polish weathering and silver dry brushing.im not sure about the face as I'm worried I will make it worse lol thanks for the great tips.
that turned out beautiful!
Why am I sitting here cheesing watching your work lol
Great job man
Awesome as always Chris!!
Wow this came out so hot🔥🔥 😍 great job 👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome as always! It would be great to see what you could do to the Clown Joker figure from 3 Jokers line to tone down that pink suit jacket
I'VE BEEN WAITING MOOOOOOOOONTHS FOR THIS ONE! Absolutely amazing job
Just love all your vids..so helpful and great tips..
Was waiting for you to do this. Thanks, mate.
Love it, so easy too
I just need to buy another one to try it
Love your work❤
As a painter, that liquitex glazing medium is a favorite of mine. Found many purposes for that medium, not just for painting.
This looks amazing! Great work! Something I noticed about the figure is his right hand seems to be sculpted a bit small. I've noticed this on a few other figures, not just from mcfarlene toys though. I wonder why this is.
God the final custom really detail and looks good like it made from Hot Toys
That's just too cool job well done 👌
Damn what a phenomenal custom!
Excellent work as always man. The only thing that back me up from buying this is that it doesn't have the grappling gun holster on the thigh, i wish McFarlane hurry up and release an updated figure without the need to buy extra parts from someone else
Dayum, some solid brushes and paints/ materials are gonna make this a hell of a lot easier and improve the end result in the future.
Absolutely Beautiful
