Posted November 20, 201113 yr Hi All I'm glad to present my version of Batman directly inspired by the Burton's version : Batman returns edited in 1992 Even if Nolan's versions are incredible (can't wait for The Dark Knight Rise..) I really would like to underline Burton's work. So here is BATMAN RETURNS Batman Returns by LegoManiac - (LM), on Flickr Some details about this creation : This moc has been inspired by the movie Batman Returns and all shot screen used for the build are avalaible here 8 leds Real fence in the road under the upsidedown 4X4 round plates to have the effect in the sewer with led inside No pics have been edited in photoshop, they are all direct shots from the camera. Snow effect has been realised with "iced sugar" On the roof the little bat signal has been made like this in a reversed tire. If ever you would like see more details do not hesitate, I'll upload more pics on my blog. Thanks again for this contest and good luck everyone ! Hope you'll enjoy, check the making off of this moc with extra pics Edited November 22, 201113 yr by lego-maniac
November 20, 201113 yr I was going to do something like this except it would be based on Arkham City, but then I figures out that I wouldn't have the resources to do that, but very good job.
November 20, 201113 yr As soon as I saw this on FBTB, I knew it was for this contest and was wondering when you would post it here. Great work once again. It's well built and really has that film noir feel of the Burton films. It almost seems like a miniature set piece! The way you lit the sewer is particularly clever. Good job and good luck in the contest (although I doubt you need it ).
November 21, 201113 yr Also I just noticed Catwoman. Why is she wearing a cape? -Omi I believe that that is a stand-in fig for Batman, thus the cape and the Catwoman mask, since that is the closest to the actual Bat-mask. I really like this, I too was going to make a city scene for this category, Might still happen, but with only 14 days left I doubt it will be done in time.

November 21, 201113 yr The canal is disapointing not a very interesting set ill pass on this onee WTF ? 'samejeff' it's a MOC not a set ? Anyway, 'legomaniac' great work....again from you....you Bat-brick genius you ! And Bat's is wearing Cat-woman's outfit....oh, Robin will be pleased ! Bat-brick On same Bat-time same Bat-channel !
November 21, 201113 yr The competition just stepped up a notch! That's an impressive piece of work there. I love the architectural themes. It definitely reminds me of the movie setting.
November 21, 201113 yr I am on my knees!!! Such a great MOC, and from my favourite Batman movie. You did a great job catching the Burton design for it with all the gigantic creepy houses, all the variations of grey and the deliberately out-of-place giant Christmas tree. Oh, and the fantastic Shreck cat of course! Definitely made my day, lego-maniac! Edited November 21, 201113 yr by Miss Kyle
November 21, 201113 yr No. This is not happening. Not only is it an exceptional MOC! It's a MOC on one of my favourite movies, with me in it! How much better can it get! Bravo! Good day, ladies and gentlemen! )
November 21, 201113 yr Author Woho so many comments ! thanks a lot This is a really great moc from the movie. :) -Omi thanks ! ;) As soon as I saw this on FBTB, I knew it was for this contest and was wondering when you would post it here. Great work once again. It's well built and really has that film noir feel of the Burton films. It almost seems like a miniature set piece! The way you lit the sewer is particularly clever. Good job and good luck in the contest (although I doubt you need it ). .ok Oky, Thanks for your comments ! I just take time to post 'cause I was looking for an idea to present the pictures. The whole MOC is really not easy to shot, it's impossible to give in a simple pic all the atmosphere of the moc. Even if the 3 buildings are not studed but put on tiles, leds and sewer make it difficult to remove for pics.. (Did you notice that we're often in "competition" on different contest ? I find it funny, and when I read a contest I always think : "argggh oki will enter too and sure he'll post something that makes me jalous !" lol Also I just noticed Catwoman. Why is she wearing a cape? because she takes Batsy cape this morning after breakfast This is like my favorite one so far!! I love it! Wait, still 14 days to see more impressive entry ! Anyway, 'legomaniac' great work....again from you....you Bat-brick genius you ! And Bat's is wearing Cat-woman's outfit....oh, Robin will be pleased ! Bat-brick On same Bat-time same Bat-channel ! Thanks you enjoy this Bat Series LT ;) The competition just stepped up a notch! That's an impressive piece of work there. I love the architectural themes. It definitely reminds me of the movie setting. If you remmeber the movie when you see this moc, I think that the moc is well done and this is the better comment I could expect. so ... thanks a lot !

Oh, and the fantastic Shreck cat of course! Definitely made my day, lego-maniac! Thanks a lot Miss Kyle. As it's your favorite Batman Movie hope you'll enjoy the details. In the Wip I've even tried the Schreck's logo but too big for the moc. On this WIP poster, you could see differents details of the moc if you want :
November 21, 201113 yr I see what you mean about the logo. It looks awesome on the WIP poster, but I think it would have clashed with the greyness in the final version. In this way, the tree is the colourful centre - the Schreck logo would have distracted the viewer. Good decision :)
November 21, 201113 yr Author No. This is not happening. Not only is it an exceptional MOC! It's a MOC on one of my favourite movies, with me in it! How much better can it get! Bravo! I'm so pleased you enjoy it and thanks a lot for your comment ! When I've read "The Penguins and WhiteFang organise a Bat Contest" I know it was time to moc this movie ! Sorry it it's not really you on the moc ('cause I only have 2 bat figs : Batsy and Catsy) but it represents you and considered that you're my special guest I see what you mean about the logo. It looks awesome on the WIP poster, but I think it would have clashed with the greyness in the final version. In this way, the tree is the colourful centre - the Schreck logo would have distracted the viewer. Good decision :) wow, you've exactly understand the color sheme of the dio... txx a lot for underline it !

I find it funny, and when I read a contest I always think : "argggh oki will enter too and sure he'll post something that makes me jalous !" lol Indeed, I too am working on a multi-layered entry for this category, although I'm not sure if it can live up to yours. However, with only two weeks left and many busy days ahead of me, I am not sure if I can complete it by the deadline.
November 21, 201113 yr wow, you've exactly understand the color sheme of the dio... txx a lot for underline it ! Well, art historians have to be good for something!
November 21, 201113 yr That is such a wonderful MOC, it's really fun to look at it, to discover the details and enjoy the atmosphere. Very impressive work, thanks for sharing it with us!
November 21, 201113 yr Author Well, art historians have to be good for something! No doubt about it ! That is such a wonderful MOC, it's really fun to look at it, to discover the details and enjoy the atmosphere. Very impressive work, thanks for sharing it with us! Txx for your comment. I think that showing WIP and technics is really the aim of a forum like EB or others to help members to progress and to learn about other creation. The AFOL communauty brings me so much when I've discovered EB, Flick and Brickpirate 3 years ago that I'm really proud now to add my bricks to the wall ! Edited November 21, 201113 yr by lego-maniac
November 23, 201113 yr Author That's just AWESOME man! I love it!!! Two thumbs way up! :D Txx a lot !
