Updated with the second version of my Iron Man Armory edition! This time I used one of Black Arachnis' custom cast heads. It's one of my design that I retooled for him too! If you want to buy a head exactly like the one you see here, head over to his site HERE and snag one along with many other heads for customizing.  He's just 'The Invincible Iron Man' for all intents and purposes, slightly modeled after the Unleashed 360 one shown at ToyFair 08. He was made from a DC Armory Batman (the best DC Direct figure EVER imo, buy one!) with a sculpted new face from scratch, modded chest, ball-joint wrists so he can hold his repulsor beams, and filled in sections to make him look different than the original mold. I used tiny magnets for his gauntlet Repulsors that allow you to attach on beams made from Gundam swords or the energy-palm-shield made from a Xevoz accessory. His paint job consists of a black basecoat with heavy silver drybrushing, then painting the sections with clear yellow/red, and detailing the palms and chest. Ta-dah, Iron Man was born!          Here's a work-in-progress shot of him after the silver drybrushing phase. Next to him is what the original figure looked like so you can compare.
