BOWEN BATMAN GARGOYLE REPAINT.

#1 Post by C Bormann »

I recently bought a Bowen Batman Gargoyle statue on eBay with the paint flaking off. Since I decided to strip and repaint it, I also shortened the neck and tipped the head downward.

It's actually very metalic blue in person. I painted it that way to resemble how satin reflects.

Very cool. My Dad has this statue packed away, and had toyed with the idea of repainting it for years. You did a great job, and the satin look works. I had less luck trying to achieve the same effect on Elvira's dress. The back metallic paint came out more glossy than metallic. But you got it!

Nice work, love the blue...I am a big fan of the blue batman suit, not really into the black. I love the HUSH look for my kits....great job on the rework, neck looks so much better after you fixed it.....GREAT WORK!!
