This is Alex Ross Justice Batman head that I sculpted for DC Direct’s 1:6 scale action figure line. Doing this project I had the distinct pleasure of corresponding with and being art directed by Alex himself, who I must say, is a very cool guy. He really knew what he wanted and was very patient and constructive while I did my best to get all the ducks to line up in a row.
I ended up sculpting quite a bit of this particular action figure, more so than any of the other figures in the line that I worked on, at the end of the day it was fair amount of work. I sculpted the head, the neck piece, the belt, the boots, the gloves, and 3 sets of hands. Overall I’m pretty happy with how the piece turned out and I hope Alex is too.
Although these photos are of a resin casting, the original head was sculpted in Super Sculpey.
The promotional photos of the finished figure can be seen on DC Direct’s website here

Sorry, but there wasn't any specfic concept art done for this piece. I just worked from various images of Alex's batman that have been released over the past decade, and Alex art directed me as I worked.
