Evolution of a Batman Suit TDK

Description

This is part 1 of a two part series of photos showing the evolution of my Batman costumes.

This first one is not one of my greatest photomanipulations, but is designed to show the changes in the suit rather than my skills with manipulations.

The first suit (far left) was the first suit I came up with after my old Batman Returns suit was destroyed. This was done for Halloween 2008 and consisted of a Rubies brand TDK cowl, Ribies gauntlets and Rubies belt. The cape was my old Returns cape and the chest is an old Batman begins car seat cover I cut down to make into a bib and was fastened by velcro in the back.

The middle photo was taken at GenCon in Sept 09. The changes were a new cowl, which I call my Begins angry cowl, the chest is still the car seat cover, but it has been segmented between the ribs and was mounted to a motocross jacket. I also made some gauntlets from the kids toy gauntlets with vinyl straps. I also replaced the belt with a full size urethane.

The final pic on the far right is the costume as it currently stands. It has a two piece TDK cowl with a separate neck piece, a movie accurate chest, ribs and abs area, longer and fuller cape, same urethane belt, the gauntlets have been re done with rubber straps and motocross gloves with knuckles.

The final suit is still to have legs armour added to the bottom and shoulder pads, the this one is complete.
