Partly inspired by this.
Thanks for looking!

Cool! It's really nice, and a lot like that comic book cover you posted. My only complaint is that the mouth doesn't line up correctly. _________________ My Forum My deviantART My Brickshelf

In the comic, the hands of two face are normal, its only his face thats burned, but your grey hand does look rather nice though... I love it, keep it up  _________________ Brickshelf | flickr |

I'm not usually a fan of cutting and gluing LEGO pieces (though I've done it a few times, and have been thinking about doing it again to make something in particular in the somewhat near future), but sometimes it makes for a really neat end product, like your Two-Face figures. It's really just a shame it can't be a cleaner cut so they go together completely seamlessly, but you're pretty good at the cutting so it's not that bad.
I think those torsos are a very good combination. The tie and shirt part go together especially nicely anyway. Cutting like this must make you think of certain pieces in a whole new way, and I find that interesting.
I also noticed people talking about how much they'd pay for this and you were getting rather offended by the low prices. I don't blame you. Not only did rather skillful work and creativity go into this, but I was also thinking about the fact that you really used about twice as many pieces as a normal minifigure would have. There isn't the cost of one torso, but two, and two heads, two hair pieces, two hip connectors.
And I think the mouth looks fine. Sure it could line up better, but it still looks fine. It isn't distracting or anything.
Is that supposed to be his actual hand, or a glove? I was thinking it was a glove, but now that I realize it matches the burnt side of his head, I don't know what to think. Haha. |

Thanks to you both!
The left hand is supposed to be burnt, as some comic iterations of Two-Face have his hand burnt.

I second that, but it's the only problem with this awesome figure. _________________ My Flickr
