Re: Bigbat23's Suit Upgrades WIP (Muscle suit)
I really like what you have done. I thought about doing something similar, but my fear was that the extra padding would make my less than flat stomach stick out too far. So my thought was to focus on chest and shoulder areas and leave the abdomen alone. But your work looks fantastic. I'm marking this thread for future use! :up

Re: Bigbat23's Suit Upgrades WIP (Utility Belt)
Okay I started on my new utility belt. First off, a BIG THANKS, to Gothams Batman for his awesome find. Without it this build would still be in limbo.
First I got these Q-tip cases that GB found at Target.
Then painted with Krylon fuision paint for plastics.
Then I bought these sticker things and painted them.
Then I bought 5 sets of these markers at the 99 cent store. I found the yellow one took the paint better.
This is what they look like all painted up. Still need to mount them to a belt, and figure out my buckle situation.
 .
So what do you guys think so far?

Re: Bigbat23's Suit Upgrades WIP (Utility Belt)
Always partial to the capsule/pocket combo. This has a great comic vibe, especially for the price. Your progress continues to impress. Overall uniform, sleek look.
Did you remove the ink from the markers and glue the covers to the base?
