Batgirl belt vendors - FOUND Costume complete (with a pic!)

[CrimsonVision]

Hey everyone,

So I am trying to put together a Batgirl costume based on the Adam Hughes statues:

I've got everything taken care of except the belt. I had been planning on ordering from here: Comic-Props.com - Main but I've been emailing for a month now with no response. I've emailed Kelly at KDM as well and he is not doing the comic version any more.

Since this is for DragonCon I'm down to just over a month before I need this in hand so I'm understandably concerned. Help?

Thanks!!

She posted that she already tried but has not heard anything back yet.

Yep, I mentioned them in my original post. I would have really liked to buy from them but I can't get them to reply to my emails.

After struggling with "nerf" foam darts on utility belts this con season, I do not recommend them. I can imagine getting ~3/4" Plastic beads and sticking them inside ~3/4 conduit and painting the whole thing yellow, but I have neither researched or attempted this.

Good Luck!

Thanks for everyone's suggestions but a new friend decided they could make the belt and oh boy did he! Took everything for a test run on Saturday to see how it looked; still need to edit the tops of the boots (I think?) & had to leave a glove off to get the phone to take a pic but otherwise I'm thrilled with how it came out!

Wow! That looks really good. Do you know what your friend used to make the belt?

Nope! LOL! Will see if I can find out though.

And I think we are ALL thrilled to see it! Great job! It does resemble the statue version.

That is a truly amazing belt.

That's a great pic. What a nice outfit, I hope you are as happy with it as the gawkers like me checking out your thread are :love

Beautiful costume! You should have your friend register here.

 

[CrimsonVision]

LOL, I am thrilled the see people like it! I've wanted to do a Batgirl for so long I'm so excited to wear this!

Are you wearing something under the suit? You have a more intense hourglass than the statue! lol

Looks awesome. Was the cowl as good quality?

Beautiful costume! I hope you have a good time at Dragon*Con.

Wow - the belt (and the whole costume for that matter) look great!

 

[bigtrev503]

still need to edit the tops of the boots (I think?)

Looks like the boots need to come up to a point in the front, other than that the belt is sweet. The cowl can make or break a costume like this, do you have it yet?

The Blaze hourglass is legendary.

That is an awesome Batgirl suit! I'm very impressed! I have been watching for quite awhile on this and other forums for a classy, good-looking Batgirl suit and this is the first one I've found!

It really looks great -- good job overall, and your friend did an amazing job on the belt. Definitely interested to see the mask with it!
