A Batman fan has brought the New 52's skin-tearing Joker face to life in a grotesque and impressive 3D-printed mask.

“I was thinking of making something out of the DC Comics and for me the only thing that comes to mind first is Batman Universe, but I always like the bad guys,” designer Stefanos Anagnostopoulos told 3DPrint.com after posting the images to MyMiniFactory. “I was looking at this comic my brother has, called ‘Batman Death of the Family’ and I love what they did with the Joker, so I gathered some pictures from the comic and the next day I started modeling the face.”

The article at 3DPrint.com says the mask was designed and sculpted using only Zbrush, and that it took Anagnostopoulos just 2 days to get the look right.
