Foamies Chest
Well, I was inspired by indiana batman, darkknighter & doesitcomeinblack101 to get mine in gear. It's just foamies cut and glued to a walmart underarmour shirt:
It's a wee bit of a pain getting it on, but it fits good on me. I'll be latexing and PlastiDipping it soon. I still have to add the bat first, of course.
What do ya'll think?

Re: Foamies Chest
Thanks guys. Batbrat, foamies are real easy to work with, plus if you screw one up it's no big deal cause they're cheap. The hardest part was gluing them to the shirt (contact cement), and that's just a matter of doing a few pieces at a time, and taking your time. I practiced on an old t-shirt first.
I forgot to mention, I used the dremel to round over the front edges of the ab pieces, and my belt/disc sander on the pecs (which are a double thickness of 6mm foamies) to round and shape them.

Re: Foamies Chest
Thanks guys! Sorry for the confusion Brin, doesitcomeinblack101 is right. I used 2) 3mm foamies glued together for each pec; I wanted the pecs to stand out signicantly from the abs, for that heroic look :batman
Bit by bit this batsuit is slowly taking shape.
Maybe this weekend I'll have time to suit up with what I have and get the little woman to take a few pix, and if I'm lucky I'll get a few of her in what she has so far
