Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
Sorry to disappoint Nightwing, but I own these gauntlets! The pics were taken in my room with my camera damnit!
I'm not trying to trick anyone into anything :cookoo
I thought sharing pics of our costume pieces etc. is one of the central points of this board and now that I finally have a Batman prop people start to think that I want to trick people into buying anything.
I answered every pm and mail I got and supplied gregday even with several more photos because he wanted to know how the hinge works.
This thread was not created for any personal profits.
If you want me to prove that i own these gauntlets then tell me how and I'll do it!
Boy, I never thought I'd get accused of being some **** just because I opened this thread.

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
I apologize bats. My bad. When I was quoted the price of $1,500 bucks; and when Mr. Swatton sent me the same 2 pics that you posted up; I thought hey, just what in the hell is going on here? You know what I mean? And I see that you are sincere, and I fully retract that statement. You got one helluva fine piece there bro. My deepest apologies. Lately, I have been catching people in lies, and I have been overanalysing everything. Mostly just in my personal and work life. No harm intended. Keep coming back brother.

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
No problem, Nightwing :wink
I have been lied to very often and after a while you start to overanalyze everything and take things out of context; my teacher used to call that "text-rape" :lol

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
Swatton got those pics from me! Antoni asked me to send them on to Tony so he could estimate a price.
I saved them from this thread, then sent them onto Swatton. Sorry for the confusion.
Yes, right now Bat89231 is the only person with a pair, and he took all of those pictures.

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
Thanks, for clearing up the confusion Greg. I like what Brin said about him being the only lucky bastard. I cannot stop laughing. That makes a whole lot of sense. Thanks guys. Now, if we all want a pair it's gonna be 1,500 smackaroos. Dammit! If anyone can talk him down, please let me know.

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
According to Anonti and Tony both, he isn't really making any money off these and is only trying to recoup his cost of materials and time.
But to his credit, he agreed to take my order without requiring any sort of deposit or down payment. He's a pretty swell guy.

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
Those gauntlets are the best Batman thing I've ever seen here. $1200 is a damn nice price!
Take a look back and read the thread, regardless of the one man job involved in creating those theres alot of people just demanding that they have one...
Then it comes down to the money and everyoen goes silent or suspects something is up. I hate to say it but everyoen seems to want it all for no money, and no credit or thoughts about the artist in most prop related things.
Bat89231, any chance for more pics of your gaunts, and or wearing them? If not I understand, but those would be some amazing eye fodder and some amazing inspiration shots.

Re: Real Bronze Gauntlets!
Tyler, here's one more for you :wink
This was taken later to show that they are much blacker in reality than on the original photos.
And Brin, how come you know my friends always call me lucky bastard
Honestly, I have two nicknames: Romantic and lucky bastard :lol
