My Little Joker Posed: Just Humble Little Me

thingiverse

I'm tired of models that just stand there like statues. So mine moves. And when it comes to the Joker, he takes a sarcastic bow - not just to anyone, but specifically to Batman. "Oh Bats! It's only humble little me!" I wasn't impressed by any of the Jokers I found on Thingiverse. Either they were stuck in Heath Ledger mode or they looked nothing like the Joker I wanted to create, with meshes so flawed that even if you spent hours fixing them, the final product would be a disappointment. So I decided to make my own. My goal was to combine different versions of the Joker and still have him recognizable without any paint. I think I succeeded - when I sent an unpainted screenshot to a friend, he immediately said: "That's the Joker!" My paint job isn't great, it was just a quick splash of color. The screenshots also don't match perfectly with the actual model because I tend to see something that doesn't quite work and then change it. So the final product is better than what you see here - at least in my opinion.
