my friend loves to dress as Batman for the special kids Christmas party so when his suit wore out I suggesting making a custom fitted suit to replace it. This thread will document the progress.
I started by making a lifecast of him and he loved the experience and likened it to being treated like a movie star.
My first step was to sculpt his brow and get the look of the whole cowl.
I have been given free reign to design my own version of the suit.
I like a scowl on Batman and was inspired by the vision Scarecrow has in Batman Begins.
Next I decided on quite long ears,
This is the rough sculpt of the overall shape.
And here is my attempt to add a bit of interesting detail to the eyes.
This is what I came up with for the nose and cheeks,
my plan is that when he smiles at kids these details will help make the mask look less threatening.
And finally here is the finished sculpt ready for molding.
I will be making a muscle suit next.
