Finally! 89 suit pics of why I do this.
Well, 15 years ago I saw a movie called, 'Batman'. I was 12 years old and always was a fan of Batman, Superman, Spider-man etc.. but until I saw the movie suit in 1989, I was more of a Spider-man and Superman fan. 1989 changed all that and made Bats my favorite, along with wanting a Batsuit just like it..."someday" is what I told people. Well, with all the work I had to do for Halloween, I managed to finish what I have always wanted for majority of my life and that is the 89 Batsuit. Finally, a pic of ME in a Batsuit, LOL. 
My buddy and I suited up and went out on the town. Went to a local Bar and took first place at a contest, then we went to LA to a 4 block city parade, where everybody in costume walks around and drinking. I couldn't walk 3 feet with everybody wanting to take pics of Batman. I must have taken over 300 photos with people that night.
Here is right after I suited up for the first time. I didn't finish every last touch, but am almost there:

I made up my buddy as Darth Maul. I used some left over cape material to throw together a Maulish type Sith Robe. I then painted his face, which took like 3 hours. All and all, it worked out great:

This is why I am part of the boards and this is what it is all about to me. The perfect 89 suit.
More pics coming soon!

Re: Finally! 89 suit pics of why I do this.
ALL RIGHT JANTS!!! The suit fits you so well, it looks like part of your skin, Bro. And given the authenticity of the suit's dimensions, it looks like you and Keaton are close to the same size.
:dropjaw
Made these for Robin, the scale of which would look good on you too.
Congratulations on being your dream!!

Great! Looking just like Keaton in those pics. The suit looks like it fits you perfectly. No crimefighting though. He he! - Jason M
