I tried to give him a "baby head" design, with the big baldness and the smushed forehead with a ridge even though it's a larger head than I wanted, feel like I pulled it off alright

Presenting, the Faceless Hunter..

I decided to give him a more of a wolf-like head design but wanted to keep the faceless asthletic. I also never cared for the tunic design, so I was lucky enough to have a base figure to force me to give him pants but kept the tunic look. I'm still trying to find appropriate weapons that don't look goofy for his size.

INGREDIENTS:
- 12" WWE guy
- sculpted: head, ears, forearm gauntlets, pants and boot trim
- tunic and belt is made of a purple soft craft foam
- painted and sealed

Comparison

Forgot to add I also sculpted the alien brass knuckles too. I guess I kinda combined comic and B:TBATB references

Seeing as how I was sculpting anyways, I wanted to make sure his facial features were fairly pronounced instead of just a blank slate; this came the more wolf-like hunter design.

That is a very cool looking Faceless Hunter! I like the use of the craft foam, gonna have to try that. He looks like he just stepped out of his space ship in the 60's. Great work!

Baby face looks like a solid addition to the Batman's rogues gallery. Eery and creepy to see a baby head on a suit buck. Well done.

Thanks a bunch Hector!! I did consider giving Babyface more hair, but glad you agree on the creepy factor, thought it worked better this way.
