The Batsuit Thread

All I'm getting is red x's.

And I get nothing at all.

Personally I really enjoyed the Begins suit....it looked nice and menacing and allowed decent mobility. Granted there were aspects that needed serious fixing (the gloves specially)

Ultimately though the TDK/TDKR is probably best out of all the suits but in need of some fixing:
-the chest has to be made less complicated so that the bat symbol can be more prominent. (saw this image a while back which perfectly addresses the issues)
Though the coloring needs to be darker IMO (that or turn it into a mix of gray and black) the chest is significantly improved. (I would also make the area around the collar less complicated.
-Completely redo the legs as well, less complicated.

The suits from the 89'/90's series were serviceable but severely flawed, specially in the mobility action aspect of the films. (though it did help that Burton knew how to shoot them so as to make them look menacing at times)....

I love Batman '89 and Returns as much as anyone but the shots of batman running down the street after exiting the batmobile from '89 as well as his stupid duck and 360 turn really highlight how stiff and limiting those suits were. Admittedly Nolan let some really bad shots of the batsuit into his series as well (bats talking to Maroni on the fire escape)

Sorry. Not sure what's going on here.

Here's another look at how Snake Eyes looks in the new GI Joe...

Cool?

 

[Lencho01]

If you think so.

I once posted a pic of the actual suit from the film either in this thread or the previous one. I posted it as an example of another approach that can be taken for something in which an actor can move well and still have the appearance of some type of armor for those who are hung up on that aspect of Batman's suit.

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

I still think the Tron:Legacy suits are the perfect basis for the next live action batsuit. It has the perfect look, weight and flexibility.

 

[Lencho01]

It would be great if someone did a manip with one of the Tron: Legacy suits.

And just looking at that example you posted, it looks like it could be turned into something similar to what Batman wears in the Young Justice toon.

 

[Boy Scout]

Yeah, I'd like to see that.

Discuss the new suit for the reboot

 

[BatsDC]

I think something like the Earth-One suit would be great for the reboot.

 

[NosfeRomas]

I want to see a Batman Noel type of suit, with fabric on top and armor underneath. I believe it would be foolish to completely cut off the technology in his suit, like memory cloth or the belt thingy.

Colour wise, black and grey will be great with the yellow bat symbol, i love that thing.

 

[Anno_Domini]

I think something like the Earth-One suit would be great for the reboot.

Agree

I've always been a fan of this suit ever since I first saw it.

 

[johndoe123]

I've posted it once and I'll gladly post it again.

This should be Batman's costume, no question.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

Earth One or Batman INC. suits would be my ideal picks to use for the new movie suits

 

[BatScot]

Hmm, in the story The Super-Key to Fort Superman, Batman melted an identical wax-statue of himself to take it's place. And Superman clearly thinks to himself about the BLUE and grey blob of melted wax…

He even tells it to Batman himself how the Batman figure is BLUE and grey. Has he made a wrongly colored Batman figure just for **** and giggles?

Maybe Superman is speaking/thinking in metaphors here too? Or is he just color-blind?

Sometimes Batman wears and has worn blue, deal with it.

Ach, thats all just Silver Age' nonsense...

... all **** and giggles

 

[mikey1974]

ironically enough in that last pic he's wearing purple,not the red he claims. not only the world's greatest detective,but also apparently a man who's color-blind.

 

[cryptic name]

I know for sure I want the yellow oval back.

 

[Rodrigo90]

I think, why generic grey? why generic yellow?

The suit, for me, would be gunmetal grey...and the yellow oval? Gold instead.

 

[FeedOnATreeFrog]

I feel like a differentiation (or at least a different starting point) is needed from the Nolan suit.

I like his suit here:

Spoiler

 

[Rodrigo90]

I would like it like that. Gunmetal armour.
Black symbol - Black Belt
Gold Symbol - Gold belt

Nolan's black symbol and gold belt didn't make sense

 

[Anno_Domini]

Why didn't it make sense? It looked just fine.

 

[Boy Scout]

Wait for it...
