That looks insanely good my friend. That cowl is unbelievable. Cannot believe you did that with the materials you did that with. Brilliance.

Re: Dark Knight duct tape (..pics..test fit of finished parts...)
this is amazing work... I suppose duct tape can really be used to make just about anything... maybe we should have a tape building contest!
