Making the perfect Batman suit

well, not that this hasnt been done before, but i always like showing my suits.


Here is my "main" suit:



This is my "old" Begins costume from last Halloween:



Ive currently started a new Begins suit, this is the cape and cowl for that:



Plus, i just finished a Robin costume:

 

I wish i knew how to make a good Batman suit. I would kill for a Batman Begins batsuit, or a Nomex suit that i could color like Nightwing's suit.

I wish someone would film the making of their next batsuit and put it online with narration or something. I've only got about 6 months until Halloween and I want to go as either Batman, Nightwing, or Joker (if i cant get a high quality suit i'll do this)

 

Wow I like that first Keaton suit and the Begins suit, I wouldn't change it.

 

Nice suits

 

shawdow, the new cowl looks great. Is it a Rubies? If so what modifications did you make to it?

 

This one isnt no Rubies.

Actually, the cowl, chest, boots, and guantlets that are in that Begins suit pic of mine are all gone, as well as the legs and kneecaps. I sold those pieces off to have the funds to get supplies to do my new one. Everything is going to be new, even the cape clips. As a matter of fact, im getting ready to pour the second layer of latex in the cod piece mold.

 

Cool!
We dont see nearly enough Robin costumes. Well done.

Hey shadowbat in your old begins suit is that cowl gen1 rubies or 2?? I still dont know which one to purchase for my suit.

 

it was a gen 1.

 

.......wow...........lol

 

whats so funny, im missing the joke.



I wish i could put together costumes like that. What sort of things do you do with having such suits?

 

blah blah blah

 

this is exactly the type of response i knew i would get from you.

 

You're not worth debating anything with.

 

um, after that brief intermission from the topic of this thread, to answer your question, this is just another extension of my collecting. I have my suits on display, however at Halloween time there are some events that i wear them for including our cities Halloween parade. I also do birthday parties and charity events. Its alot of fun.

 

Well, I know it's far from perfect, but I like showing off my suit every once in a while too oh and it's actually not that bad because it's not too hot or too heavy. My first suit was an '89 style one and it sucked going to halloween parties....sweating the whole time, carrying like 20 lbs of friggin' latex all over you. This style suit allows me to party all night, hehe

 

Ha, didn't think i'd ever see Batman smoknig a huge bong.

 

Great suits, especially your main suit. It's awesome!

 

Is it padded spandex or just airbrushed?

 

It's just airbrushed

 

haha, holy mary-jane batman
