Batman-Michael Keaton

[Joe Hudson]

Here is my latest project. This is a 1/3 scale Batman starring Michael Keaton.

This is the largest project that I have ever painted and it was a lot of fun. I used various acrylic paints and both traditional and airbrush.

The bust was sculpted by Rocco the Sculptor and is for his personal collection.

You did photoshop the eyes ddin't you (?) - they are so lifelike (as is the rest of the painting).

That is one sharp looking bust! No pun intended, but the eyes have it!

This is top class from the flesh tones to the black.
The black is stunning, the subtle highlights and shadow are the best I've seen.

The skin texture is great. Cast in, or did you texture that yourself?

Malc, thank for the kind words. I wanted to make sure that the “black” was not Julia boring black. Thank you for noticing.

Rob, thanks and some of it is cast and some is from painting and the process of sealing it.

I recon I'm not the only one who caught the eye work, Joe. Simply superb work, all of it!

Hi Joe

Again your artwork excels , so life like on the skin and those eyes are one of your specialty areas when painting

The treatment of the black is so effective yet subtle

Always a pleasure to see your art ...1/3rd !! ...how did you hold this !

The sculptor is going to be so amazed and proud to have a JH one off

Thanks for sharing

Looking forward to seeing more

Happy benchtime
