Yeah, definately tone it down. The actual paint jobs are right on though, it's just that particular shade makes him look more like Bat-Vulture.

I agree re: the shade of green used, but love the lines, great job.
I went with a darker green for mine:

i apriciate all the feedback and that is some excellent advice i was asked to make these for some fellow realmsters so ill definately tone the green down. also the head should be black apparently with the cape green.

IIRC, only the inside of the cape is green, the outside is black. ;)
You can't see it in the photo I provided, but that's how I did mine anyhow.

One of the things you can do to "darken" the green is to take one of Citadel's ink washes to it. Azurmen Green, I think is what I use.

sort of appears to be that the entire cape is green with exception to the cowl

I like the paint jobs with the Batmen to turn them all into Batman Green Lanterns. But did you go a little over board on this project? But my guess is you really want a Green Lantern Batman.

Looks like a SI Punisher wall, JL Batman & Robin Batman, Crisis Green Lantern lantern and construct, maybe even the forearms as well.

Very nice. I've got a small collection (probably 6 or more that I've picked up from different modders) of Green Lantern Batmen. And that one of him on the wall with the constructs is great. I might have to cut up a Green Lantern so I can have that made.

Looks very good. I've been working on Batman and Robin Green Lanterns (it's going on a Iron Man/War Machine dial that I'm having done). I didn't cut the hands off of Green Lantern but tried to just take off the Lantern and Shield. So far I've got Robin's lantern attached and I'm working on Batman's. Once I get it done and I have it painted, I'll have to take some pics.

Which green lantern? Crisis or CD or something else?

I tried to do something similar to what Muncho did and took the Lantern and shield off of a few extra CR Green Lanterns that I had.

I know it looks that way, but the exterior of the cape is indeed Black. The fig's picture does not show that unfortunately due to the angle.

Crisis GL Dial + Batman from Batman and Robin Duo (JL) + Green elements from Crisis GL + Wall element from Punisher (SI) + Lots of Paint and Glue = Muncho's Mod. :classic:
