Hot Toys 1/6 Knightmare Batman Modifications & Custom Themed Base- Custom Collectables!

It's a Knightmare Batman kind of week, Geeks! Today I'll be showing you how I modified my Knightmare Batman Hot Toys figure as well as constructing a custom themed base.
Enjoy!

[@cassanova9322]

You need a lot of balls to customize a Hot Toys figure. The final result was worth it.Great job Chris.

[@Wireblue666]

Customizing a Hot Toys figure? YOU"RE A MADMAN!

[@Cam-yi1ue]

LMAO

[@Bat-talk]

I was thinking that too !! Like wow he did a great job but damn ! Some of us , even though we can afford , it's hard buying hot toys .. I wouldn't even mess around with paint hahah and the custom base is cool .. not sure I'd use actual dirt though

[@iliketohearmenmoaning]

Right? If I bought one I wouldn't touch it. That's like 400$

[@Wireblue666]

***** Well, I have now!

[@LRRPEXILE]

That's what people with money do, they go mad.

[@jamesmoore9223]

Gotta say mate. You're a true artist. Going at a Hot Toys figure like that takes some serious balls and once again. You fucking nailed it!!!

[@W3STY1701]

Interviewer- "Chris whats your favorite tool to use while making your collectables?" Chris- " Dirt from my driveway and shoe polish"

[@Rick9624-]

W3STY but it works tho 😂

[@BIGLARRY100]

W3STY loooollollllooooolll haha haha he's good as hell but that was still funny as shit

[@simonepeoples2642]

Seems legit

[@landoneidson6294]

And the pva glue

[@machewsan1422]

You're like the adult version for Art Attack!

[@machewsan1422]

MCKingfisher • It's a kids show.

[@TomMcisaac250]

Holy shit I loved that show!!!

[@inzamhaque8970]

Machewsan exactly what i was thinking when i heard pva glue

[@ScrampyGamesHD]

Art Attack was the shit back when I was younger

[@raidenstark315]

Most clever comment i ever read It's true this channel feels like art attack

[@VeshSneaks]

I think Chris might be single-handedly increasing Bunnings jewelry box sales. Great vid though!

[@joecyr5836]

I didn't know a hot toys figure could look better.....Chris proved me wrong lol

[@SandraOrtmann1976]

I love what you did with Batman. Looks much better now.

[@Flash007b]

There will be more dirt from your driveway in your room than in your driveway soon. Great job!

[@Flynn062]

Flash007b lmao so true

[@dachristianrocks100]

Flash007b He also uses shoe polish more on his collectibles than his shoes.

[@RT2020HD]

Seriously creative man, and the finished project is killer! Crazy what you can achieve with some shoe polish and a foam base. Keep it up Chris, you deserve way more subs for this level of content

[@MrBISHOP826]

I would usually agree with everyone else that you're a madman for going in on a $200+ figure, but you're natural at this shit bro. Inspiring me to try and give some of my own figures a bit more life. Keep up the good work Chris.

[@Nintenja889]

My soul hurt when you did all that cutting to a HOT TOYS figure, but it REALLY looks good.

[@dmholman]

That base .. so simple yet so effective and awesome. Sweet.

[@waynesbutler]

Wow . If there is anyone who knows the details of this figure it would be you . Amazing job Chris and the base is inspiring me to get back to business . Its the details that make the difference and you nailed it . Standing ovation my friend for all you bring to your projects ..

[@griffinthomas7220]

We wife and I get a lot of enjoyment out of your videos man!! We are not cosplayers or super big into super heros. However we find an art in your videos. Very cool pieces!! Keep up the great work man!!!

[@SleazyMouse]

Dude this inspired me greatly, I ended up making a shelf size base using this technique and I now have all of my 10" GI joes on it..

[@revolutionarycinemaproduct6612]

Wow that knightmare Batman is absolutely beautifully done. Seriously gorgeous chris. I myself have been customizing toys and collectibles since i was about 5 years old, my first ever custom being a marvel legends Spider-Man figure that i drilled holes into to fit doctor octopus's tentacles into, because i had just seen the 90's Spider-Man cartoon episode that has the many different Spider-Men, including the one that had doc ock tentacles on it, all the way up to today at 19 years old, where i sculpt, paint, and straight up create my own figures and collectibles, and i have to say, seeing you're customs done so well is really inspiring, and shows how much better things can look when you pimp em out correctly. I painted my mattel DC multiverse Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice Batman that was horribly painted, im sure u remember how badly the color gray was done on the batfleck suit, it was a very light and shiny gray color that was completely innacurate, and as you know batflecks body suit color is a very dark gray with some nearly black parts on it, so i was very unhappy with the color, and so the best thing i could think of was to completely repaint the body suit, by mixing a darker gray, a tiny bit of matte black for a base coat (because if u look at batflecks body suit in bvs and probably even justice league, it has some shiny bits in the fabric fibers, and i believe the in universe reason for this is because its a titanium weave fabric, im almost positive its titanium, but i could be wrong, but its the reasom the suit is bullet proof, similar to the black panther vibranium weave suit, but it may be DC's fictional "unobtanium" metal thats kind of like DC's vibranium/adamantium equivalent) and after that base coat, i then dry brushed a matte black with a very small bit of metallic silver over the matte gray base coat, and it truly turned out beautifully. It really looks like the batfleck body suit, and the dry brush really brought out all the beautifully designed body suit fabric texture, wrinkles and folds, it made the mattel DC multiverse Batman look fantastic, and considering mattels figures are poorly made and poorly painted, articulated, and poorly sculpted in general, i couldnt believe how well done it turned out, the metallic silver drybrush really made the whole piece into something great, and i also painted some dirt, mud, and grime all over the cape, mostly the bottom cuz that bit obviously drags on the ground. Honestly, i was never a big DC guy, i find marvel to just be far superior in literally every way, from characters, to stories, to villains, art, movies especially, marvel made the two best comic book movies of all time in Captain America Civil War, and the even better instant classic, by far the best comic book and or superhero movie ever made, but i always loved the conceot of The Avengers Vs Justice League, and so my display that features my custom Batfleck is an Avengers vs Justice League diorama/Display, and i made it using alot of techniques i learned from chris, like the expanda-foam for concrete and broken buildings and streets, so i just wanted to say thank you chris for teachinf me all these amazing techniques ibe learned to apply to my custom dioramas and displays for my godzilla figures, and my movie Avengers vs Justice League diorama display. I love your channel chris, and i love your content, ive learned so much!

[@ahmedshakib3883]

I always thought your Hulkbuster was your best work ,I have now changed my mind,this is your best work.

[@kevypaul]

The base really takes the figure to another level, great job!

[@olddominionoutfitters1272]

Pink insulation foam works real well with a heated wire. Awesome looking piece

[@homerino123]

great vid! just goes to show how little toy companies need to do to their figures to bring out so much more detail, they have the sculpt half the time they just need the extra touch of shading and they look 50X better.

[@gregorybancroft5990]

Spectacular job Chris! You never fail to impress!

[@pieface3078]

I love the music when the figure is revealed it's so cool

[@futbolman15]

You're not human, man. That's amazing!

[@sockapus7059]

You would've needed some balls to customise a hot toys figure. But now it looks so much better and that base looks awesome!

[@sinlokemp]

Only person who has the skill to modify hot toys! Way to go mate!

[@907Lopez]

That custom base is fucking sick! My Hot Toys BvS Standard Batman finally shipped yesterday and should be here in Alaska on Tuesday. You got my gears rolling now on a custom base.

[@SenoEricKrueger]

Another stunning custom job Chris!

[@REaDComicsau]

Hey Chris you should do a video about your favourite superheroes. Plz!!!

[@REaDComicsau]

Top 5

[@riptidepictures8105]

Ragnarok Omega use the edit button next time pal

[@bizzarboxx2642]

Love you and everything you do man! Such an awesome role model and it's because of watching your videos it's gotten me into cosplay. You're seriously awesome man

[@lorearna]

Amazing job! I'm impressed every time you do customs! Keep the great and hard work!

[@chanosalinas77]

man you got balls chris, I'd be afraid of messing up. work my way up with though, learning great tricks

[@Jerbsinator]

That figure is amazing, even before the modifications.

[@gustavopacheco3367]

that looks fucking beautiful

[@brandonhernandez7885]

love this channel he's actually for me into cosplay and wanting but these figures

[@Danoby2]

Nice upgrade and custom dude!

[@stinkyfartguyofficial]

!Custom nice dude and upgrade

[@formula1fan]

Great work, love to see your custom figures.

[@skrap35]

Base and figure look great! Had an idea to make your barbed wire look a little more realistic. Possibly take pliers and bend those prongs in different directions making the "twisted" barbed wire look. Huge fan!

[@RAK00N2]

At about 9:00 minutes, did anyone else hear him say "brown shooblish???" Awesome work btw Chris!

[@connorjackson4320]

This was an awesome video! I've been trying to think of a base for the jakks pacific fig I customised and the foam is a great idea!!

[@rayq00]

Beautiful! Feeling so tempted to start customizing my own figures.

[@dojoquintana]

Awesome work again, Chris! Speaking of, I'm just waiting for you to customize that Commander Cody figure.

[@adalbertoorellana7232]

amazing skills man and great tips for the belt.

[@killersands5116]

Chris I have a challenge for ya get a really bad batman toy figure and customize it to look expensive,we all believe in you

[@MissAyeshi]

This is absolutely stunning, Chris! I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. Don't know how comfortable I'd be with trusting my skills to customize such an expensive piece! Weren't you terrified while you were drilling holes into his feet? :-x

[@spoodurmin9742]

I think the metal beams should have been painted a brownish-orange, metal becomes rusty over time.

[@simonepeoples2642]

Peter Parké nice idea

[@ryansizemore5064]

Thanks so much for your hard work Chris. I'm gonna start my career customizing towys with a Wonder Woman Big Fig :D

[@CL0WNF4C3]

This is fantastic work! Well done!!

[@jedfaulkner7882]

hey chris just wondoring if you can do a deadshot costplay i need a bit of an idea but i think you would be a great deadshot also good job on the nightmare batman bro it was sick -jed

[@ryancollins312]

you took batman from a good solid 9 all the way to 100 this looks so much better.

[@jinidos]

Truly amazing Chris!!!!!!! greetz from Belgium!

[@mynamejeff8820]

“I don’t know how the fuck I have dirt on my driveway still” that makes me laugh 😂 so much

[@DennisEmerick]

Who else cringed when he said he drilled holes in batman's feet? great job chris.

[@esoshunters]

Amazing work Chris.

[@hernantrejo652]

Honestly I was expecting the base to be a little bit bigger but great job Chris!!

[@ThreeOuttaFive]

Set up a Patreon so we can donate dirt from our drives to YOUR drive!

[@jasonsnothrillstoyreview7228]

how the hell can this get a thumbs down ffs. great work mate. although I'd never have the confidence to customise a hot toy I'd love to make a custom base. keep up the great work.

[@Mysterious2887]

this figure looks fucking badass

[@stacadams1]

I love your work, Bing your videos everyday

[@antonnaval9153]

Hahaha. And here I thought hot toys couldn't look any better. Well done as always.

[@bobabrown978]

Chris you are talented

[@elginG80]

Standing ovation, well done sir!

[@brynmagician]

Amazing job! I learn so much from your videos! Thank you!

[@thtrygy3504]

Please try to come to Atlanta for a convention!!!! You're awesome!

[@relykofwar4039]

chris can you pimp out the fallout 3 power armor figure. its on amazon for like 27$. i wanna see what you could do.

[@06stangsc]

Been obsessed with these videos lately. You're awesome at this. Any chance you'd do a Winter Soldier or even a Bucky Barnes Captain America?

[@joshpoot4195]

Looks great! One suggestion it to some rust on the rebar sticking out of the concrete portions.

[@Faris-gp3ed]

My bro really made a hot toy figure burn🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@elucidatethis846]

Mate , your so good at what you do, keep it up.

[@MayorHairBear]

Insane man, absolutely killed it :)

[@FrigginBoomToys]

Looks awesome man, you could charge people to do this for their stuff. It's weird though, you'd think with the amount you pay for these collectables, they would already have this kind of detail.

[@AlphaDawgg13]

hey man great work! for the future i suggest you watch a guide on making 1/6th scale barbed wire, it looks amazing

[@hectorrodriguez4541]

hey chris! great video 👍 Salutations from Puerto Rico 🌎

[@Felipejcp89]

Absolutely great work

[@Cam-yi1ue]

dang chris you should make a business about your collectibles you would make a KILLING

[@thaitrinh8852]

How can he make something good already look even better!?!?

[@shoxiong1]

+Cosplay Chris Hey first off just wanna say I love your work. Second I had a question for you. It seems every time I use shoe polish to weather my props and custom figures they become tacky and never fully dry, are you having the same problem or is it just me? If it's just me what are your thoughts on this? Also keep up the amazing work

[@MrBlazerfb]

Chris I think you should do a tour of your room and how you set up your collection

[@justchilling9442]

Very impressive, thanks for sharing.

[@MegaCatman45]

At first I was like "Chis WTF!? you can't do that to a Hot Toys!!!" but then I remember your cosplay and i went "Oh that's right! He know this suit inside out! Go get himRay!"

[@martinarnaud1266]

That was great. great job. love to see you do one of bobafett. please

[@goldenwarrior9996]

Great base, Chris👍

[@wutang_batman]

Another sick vid... You are awesome chris

[@coletheslaw]

Awesome Custom! What was the music you used for the Reveal?

[@billysinanu2857]

A hot toys is already good.. but customizing a hot toys? that is perfect.

[@rendenwright5460]

Cut blade away ok BLADE OUT amazing work 👍👍

[@jackcunningham641]

+Cosplay Chris you should make the mesh inside the concrete a rusty brown colour because that's the colour of mesh used in concrete

[@maxclark1554]

Absolute legend Chris!

[@psycopath2003]

Great video and redo of the figure, only thing that detracts from the final look is the fact seeing the form coloring in the base. Otherwise amazing job :D

[@dorukozalgan5054]

fantastic job chris

[@daltonhaveman50]

love the videos . I watch almost all of them

[@justicewing]

holy shit! the reveal is so awesome

[@TBoneDM]

Upped the game on this one, dude. Loved it!

[@StevieBoy215]

Dude you a such a beast!!!!!!!!! Nice job

[@alexherrera2241]

you are the best youtuber

[@whiteout475]

That platform looks like the weirdest grilled cheese I've ever seen lmaoo

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Excellent work!

[@mistersqualis5641]

Fantastic.Damn thats super cool.

[@Dude-ew5fd]

Amazing build!!!

[@rubio6754]

Also I'd love to get into customizing things but it could be dangerous like you said about slicing your fingers. My grandfather just had an accident a two days ago where he cut his fingers off while working outside, guess he wasn't being careful enough and they couldn't get his fingers back fast enough so they couldn't attach them anymore.
