Ken Meekin’s Keaton Batman

Posted on by

This is my model of the Biliken Keaton Batman. I got him cheap at a yard sale. A fairly easy model using LOTS of black. I used a flat black (Tamiya xf-1) on pretty much the whole suit. Not a lot of definition, so I then used a spray can of satin black on the cape and highlighted it with different shades of gloss black. I then used some various shades of acrylic flesh paint for the face. The stand is an oval pine plaque that I got at a craft store (Michael’s) for a dollar. After painting it black, I found a photo online of the logo from the first Batman movie and after tweaking the photo a bit, sized it to fit on the stand. I used a spray high gloss lacquer (about four coats) to seal it and make it look nice. Hope you like!
