Absolutely. My girlfriend found a seamstress who is going to make her Black Widow catsuit (won't be 100% screen accurate but very close) for a very reasonable price and after we get the catsuit and see how it turns out I may commission her for my Hawkeye vest and pants. I'm going to take a stab at doing it myself, but doubt it would come out as good.

BTW - Has anyone ID'd the shooting glove and armguard he's got on the V1 costume? It also looks like he's got a wrist brace on under the shooting glove. I know they're pretty generic items, I was just curious if anyone had ID'd the actual pieces.

The armguard was previously ID'ed as the Beiter Soft Armguard. The glove is believed to be a custom job. I'm just finishing up a glove, and will post by the weekend. Basically some stretchy black fabric, some black vinyl, and some hemming tape.

Yeah I know the V2 "Avengers" outfit is the Bieter guard, but the V1 looks like it's just a regular black one. I've seen some pretty awesome custom archery gloves in my search and am surprised that they didn't have him use something more like that just for some added flair.

Oops, you're right. Looks like a pretty standard black (p)leather guard, but hard to tell in the one shot we have.

Can this be used as the V1 arm guard?

Also I found this vest for the V1 as well

cosplaysky is doing some avengers stuff including a hawkeye v2 outift. its not great but its a modest start and cosplaysky are usually very good at taking requests for modifications to make the stuff more accurate including fabric changes if available. i have got lots of stuff from them and have always been pleased. they have made me several 10th doctor suits all in my specs in various materials, no problems. i also got the guy ritchie sherlock holmes coat from them and they even custom made me a vest to go with it based on one seen in the film and i have their smallville jacket which is probably my most worn film jacket.

they may be worth a look for those who maybe cant make the costume on their own

Thanks man, I really like that arm guard and ordered one.

The vest is nice too, but for that price you can get the Blackhawk ITS vest (see earlier posts) that is actually the one they used in the movie (with slight alterations).

Yeah, that's pretty nice but again it's pleather/vinyl rather than nylon and codura like the movie version. I'm still hoping that either the seamstress my girlfriend found can do it for a reasonable price or someone will offer one closer to the film version.

I'd love to see pics of the Sherlock Holmes jacket. I've looked at it many times online, but some good pics of it would be awesome if you could. Maybe pm them to me so as not to hijack the thread?

Hoplite, no problem.

I know they were using a custom recurve bow in the film but I think this might come close enough for my needs

While that armguard is close, not exactly what we're after. This is the best image I could get of the V1 armguard:

Any luck on the shooting glove, boots and the quiver for the V1 costume?

Be seeing you,

But Thanks for the heads up anyway

Hawkeye's knife which is seen very briefly before getting kicked out of his hand by Black Widow. The dagger's were custom made by Jerry Busse for Marvel.

Long dagger too!

Looks like the Neet N-3V black?

Topherhunter, I think you are right!!

Good eye, topherhunter!

I could have sworn the knife in the fight with Black Widow was a push or punch dagger. Happy to be proven wrong though.

Hey guys,
Here's my 2 cents on the guard-it looks like a fairly standard arm guard, leather with an elastic/velcro strap, at least in this photo. Don't remember the brand, but when I started archery a decade ago, this is what they sold me on the first day.
But man, I want Hawkeye's custom stuff, fer sher!
