| This is the
Gore Group Batman
"Dark Hunter" sculpted by Martin Canale and seems to be based on the comic book artwork of Simon
Bisely.... Although I never got the chance to ask Martin if this
was the case or not, at any rate it still looks like Bisely's Batman
artwork.
The kit is one solid
piece of resin and stands about 9" tall. The casting is
very clean with
no seams, pinholes or air bubbles, it came pre-primed and ready to
paint.. It's a really beautifully done sculpt and really paints up
beautifully.... I decided to go with a sort of traditional color
scheme for the costume, lots of blues and grays and custom mix of
brown and yellow to get the desired color I wanted for the utility
belt.
This is a
kit that I had been
trying to track down for a while. Then in 2003 Martin decided to
re-release it for a limited run through his company "Gore Group"
and thanks to my very good friend "Norm - Kitman- Piatt" and
Martin I was finally able to get my hands on one.
