Batman sculpt in progress

Detail of the torso of the Dark Knight statue.  Sculpted in hard green Castilene. I used hot wax tools such as an electric waxer and metal sculpting tools heated by an alcohol torch for all the details. Heated sanding pads were also used to create some of the texture in the costume fabric. I decided to go with a traditional type of utility belt and the large bat chest emblem without the circle behind it. I always loved the plain large bat on his chest since I saw it depicted that way in Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns."
