Batfleck-like gauntlets

Hello people!

I decided to make a Batman gauntlet, and I was fascinated by the Affleck's version. So, I made my attempt by the traditional sculpting/cast approach.

Initialy, I tried to make it with EVA foam, based on a duct tape dummy of my own forearm. However, the final result was too artificial, with little resemblance to something organic. Then, I decided to sculpt. At the first try, I let myself be carried away by excitement, and took measures wrongly, having to start from scratch. At the second try, it went OK.

NOTICES:
- I know the gauntlet doesn't have that New 52-style segmentations, and this is intentional. I made the segmentations, and I was almost going to make the mold. But I gave a second and thought I could use these build in other costumes, if it was not segmented. So, I removed segmentation lines, and went to molding.
- This is the first version. Size and spacement of the fins need to be adjusted. Painting needs to be improved.

Thanks for viewing! :)

Hello guys!!! Here is an update. I think I'll have to post a new thread for this in a near future. It's an EVA foam cowl (4 mm), which I made from a file found on the web and called "Jim Lee Batman Cowl". However, fits perfectly for a Batfleck costume. I made tons of freehand adaptations, because the original chin was damn huge...
