That would be so above and beyond badass man haha and how about a Dr. pepper can lol seeing as I have stopped drinking soda to get in shape the only thing we have in this house is water, Gatorade, and Dr. Pepper for my girlfriend's Mom that's all she drinks and I have some stuff called E-6000 I don't know if that stuff will work anyways I'll shoot you a PM about pricing :D
 
Damn Mysterynigma you look pretty damn good bro, You have the Jbrown mask if I remember correctly right? What type of paint did you use for it? I made a late night trip to Wallyworld a little while ago and bought some acrylics but I'm going to hold off opening them until I get some more info :)
 
nigma, looking good man! jealous of the coat.. my friend says bane is snuggly, and i can totally agree with her. looks very comfy. again with the instagram though!
seriously though, nice progress
 
yikes, man, you're gonna make things harder for yourself... how about you send me a photo of the boots with like a coke can as color reference...coke can red is the same the world over, so its a good thing to have in a photo to help gauge the actual color of things. i'll find some scrap leather in a similar color and texture and get you set up.
i have an idea of how i was going to make straps for my own boots and am planning on testing it out this week (it's not labor intensive so i think i can manage). if i can figure out a good method i can send you a set (with buckles installed) along with some contact cement (unless you have some).. if not i can send you some leather that is close in color at least.
i have SO much leather. something like 8 of those rubbermade totes stuffed with leather. i have every color, literally.

edit: i am wishing i had joined here months ago, i could have started a mini side business aging stuff and doing leatherwork for folks. oh well!

I may be hitting you up on something like that as well, if the offer still stands haha. I was just gonna go with my old standard issue army combat boots for the time being and just find something that is close to the color and glue on the buckles and straps.
 
Krake that looks like the Banepants.com coat someone had said awhile back that any coat pictures with the hands and such photoshopped out like that one to stay away from if I were you I'd stick with the one from Banepants.com if they are still selling them. I heard the quality of the ones that used the banepants stock photo are much less good looking they look more like the costume base coats
 
yeah he is selling, but i live in germany and so the cost are really high, and we have the german duty problem with tax -.- coz its coming from china and not from UK
 
I would not recommend celebs clothing, horrible reputation.

I used liquitex acrylics and aerosols for my mask since they're flexible.
Sorry about the instagram, I use my phone and it's the easiest way to share :/

krake: nobody has mentioned buying a coat from that company on here yet. if you look back through the old posts you can see people's opinions of the coat from banepants.com and costumebase and leatherniche. they all have positives and negatives, but those 3 seems to be the most commonly talked about and/or purchased
 
The celebs clothing coat in the picture is not the one you will receive. It had been confirmed that they use the banepants picture without permission and mislead their customers.
Someone posted the actual coat they got from them and it looked like a shoddier version of the costumebase coat.

hm ****ing morons, why do they use then a picture from banepants...

so which is for you the best ?
 
awww the coat looks even more snuggly up close. can you tell that my pain meds are kicking in?
- the mask looks really good. i am just giving you grief about instagram cause i have folks on my facebook who post artsy photos of half eaten burgers and it drives me insane.

lucky, i can probably help a very limited number of people with this before halloween.
my schedule from september to november is extremely busy every year- i help run haunted houses, i host 2 huge halloween parties, i go to salem mass for halloween, i have new york comic con next month, the gun show next week, family birthday parties, etc. working 50 hours a week with all this does not really leave much time to work on my own costume, much less things for others...
that said, i could probably handle a few if people really needed/wanted them. i do not want to promise anything or take any real orders until i have an example to show..
i really wish i had the time to make gauntlets and boot straps for everyone on here but with my schedule it just can't be done. anyone willing to wait until after halloween should, just to make life easier

looks like we're going to move on to part 4 soon!
 
Well I went with the LeatherNiche one the most expensive of the 3 at $415 USD including shipping in my personal opinion it is the best quality coat but probably the least screen accurate one but I'm not planning on just using it for the costume so it doesn't bother me as much as far as accuracy goes just quality I posted a few pictures I think on page 31 of this thread? But the bane pants one is probably the most accurate and a bunch of people have that one on here I think even RDmaul has it on in the pictures with Todd's amazing mask for reference.

And yes, it is the softest, snuggliest piece of clothing I have ever owned.

Having some fun on the meds?? haha!

It's not a big issue for me, so I can definitely wait till after Halloween to see what you've come up with for yourself. I'd like to see about getting some of the M43 boots later this year and having someone with leather working skills *hint hint* work on the straps...pending on funds.

I'm impressed at how fast this thread fills up, and I'm pretty happy to have been apart of the tail end of part 2 and the entirety of part 3. BRING IT ON PART 4!

Banewagon this was all I could find (I didn't look very hard)

Part 4 will hopefully render some nice costumes from people prepping for halloween I know I'm excited and Loviatar if you aren't able to get to that stuff that is perfectly understandable just keep me in the loop so I can figure out other means to prepare if need be ;)

haha NICE yeah I didn't even try I figured by the time I found it and posted it, it wouldn't be funny anymore
 
Hey Loviatar, Enjoy that last meal, brother and I'll be praying for your surgery tomorrow. Heal up quick!
 
I just found this can you guys believe they want $220 for this thing

thatsamask_zpsad332d46.jpg


I mean it's ok but not $220 bucks worth for sure...
 
that mask makes me sad. it looks like a handful of those big bendy straws they have a friendlys.
look how downtrodden the mannequin looks. even he knows it's no good. poor thing.
jonny showed me a mask on ebay a week ago that was interesting.. it was leather, so i was interested.. it's gone now though. it was laced up in the back which was different.. like a combination of TDKR bane and typical luchador bane masks.

banewagon, i just sent you the first draft of my screenplay.
