Re: Batman Dawn Of Justice "Build"


Emblem and guants are in.

Gauntlets suck lol. They're oddly too long and to thin. I've trimmed them down, and cut a split down the inside middle. Not sure if I'm gonna put in a zipper or Velcro. But I think it's gonna be a decent fit.

The emblem is great. I mean great. Just as pictured. I'll get pics up asap but I'm very happy with how well the emblem looks.

Gauntlets aren't secured yet. Trying to figure out how I'm gonna close the opening I needed to create because they were too tight.

Re: Batman Dawn Of Justice "Build" UPDATE 6/26/17


I'm giving up on these cheap gauntlets and going my own route. Even with Velcro or zipper they're way to tight and really flimsy. They bunch up or open whenever I try to bend my arm.

What I'm gonna do is use them as a stencil to outline my own outta craft foam. Gonna also do an outline on vinyl/faux leather, and make my own hand wraps. At least I know they'll fit.

Boots will be in this weekend, and the jumpsuit and cape just shipped.

More to come.

Re: Batman Dawn Of Justice "Build" UPDATE 6/26/17


My boots came in! Little long as they peak right at the bottom of my kneecap. I plan on getting some lifts that'll make me 2 inches taller. So maybe that'll remedy that.

If not I'll look into a seamstress or cobbler.

Custom made and only two weeks shipped. For the cost these are about as great as I could ask for. So happy.

Re: Batman Dawn Of Justice "Build" UPDATE 7/6/17- Jumpsuit and cape in. Suited up!


Alright. The jumpsuit came in. Happy to report it fits. A bit snug but overall I'm extremely happy with it. Cape is also a pretty good piece.

Even though I need to get the bracers done, build a muscle suit and glue down the emblem, I'm very happy with the result to this point. Decided to throw it all together just to see.

So far so good. I've also dropped 30 plus lbs and am hoping for another 30 by Halloween to trim up. But man I'm so happy. By far my best suit to date.
