My 89 cowl. Need your opinion bros. = Pic Heavy!! =
Alright... so I couldn't get over my 89 cowl which I at first felt was way too big for me and kept messing with it. But after taking in a few suggestions and adding specific shaped foam padding, not only to the back of the head, but small pieces on the the front as well/under the chin to keep the mouth area from getting floppy, I began to feel a little convinced that maybe this could work after all.
Then again, my eyes could be deceiving me after all those hours of working it. :ohwell
Here's a bunch of shots I took so you can see how it looks from all angles. I also popped on my chest armor on just to give a better perspective with the suit on. Please let me know your total honest opinions as I would greatly appreciate it. Once I mount my second latex armor completely (thanks Darkone!), I will take pics of that too.
Here goes nothin'...
Overall, the comfort is really good because it's a bit loose compared to what I'm used to sporting.
Well... I hope this looks good. If it does, then great. Now I can move on to the next mission which is my 89 latex/fabric cape. >_<
Thanks for taking the time buds! Long live the 89!!

I think you are the best looking guy Ive seen in that cowl besides the man himself. It looks fine, bro. :up

I think it fits you perfectly and you have a lower face darn close to Keaton so I'd say stick with it. :up

Re: My 89 cowl. Need your opinion bros. = Pic Heavy!! =
hehe thanks for taking the time to share guys.
Im really happy to hear it works.
I intend to wear the 89 at SDCC this July on Saturday. I will be applying air brush work to bring my skin tone to a lighter state and simulate Keaton's face as much as possible.
Still so much work to do. But I'm diggin' this hobby. I only intend to do 89 and Returns suits too as Im only a fan of the Burton films. (in general as well) :)
I also look forward to helping other young bat brothers in the future achieve their 89/returns suits. Great costumes to work with. Especially when youre a big fan of them in particular. Duuuuuuuuude.. :sick
lol thanks again!
