Cardboard box Batman build, DS inspired *PIC HEAVY

[poopymcbutthole]

Oh crap i just had an idea , have you thought of that rubber in a can spray sealant for this project? it is super cheap and can be found in harmons cosmetics stores , michaels rag shop type places and even some hardware stores now ... it was an as seen on tv so the price is not horrible ... i was thinking of picking some up to fix the bottoms of my favorite sneakers and snow boots that i wear till the soles are gone! lol ... but yeah i think it would work pretty cool for this project

Good news ..... After leaving if set for a day the powder has gone and it's set in


Have started painting the arms which look pretty cool. Need to work on chest, legs and groin/ belt next will keep ya posted cheers

 

[Pipboy]

So i did some painting on my arms, here is a demo of how it looks. i will be adding a bat logo to my shoulders just to be a little different, but heres it so far

bro, ensure to put something on the inside of your cardboard build so when you wear it, perspiration will not soak the cardboard ( i used duct tape on mine)

Looks sweet. Interested to see how the chest comes out!

Keep it going Bro, it's coming along real well...

 

[Pipboy]

well i have managed to find some fabric for a cape and bought a few metres of elastic. i have connected the shoulders/biceps, by elastic over my back so they hold on. with the whole upper body kit on it feels really sturdy, bellow is what it looks like with the upper body on... will start working on legs today. but yeah let me know what you think.

lol ok so i put everything together, have some more tweaking to do, but as you can see it looks so much better when its darker, which for me is a plus since im wearing it to a party, lol anyway thought id post it , i personly think it looks stupid, but i love it all the same ... cheers

Let's hope it doesn't rain!
No but really, it's cool, but I think the ears looks kinda funky!

Man, YOU ARE A GENIUS! A decent Batman costume just from old cardboard!! I'm still reeling from shock at how cool an idea that is... just fantastic 10/10 - I'm totally gonna use that idea one day

Keep up the good work, and make sure you get photos wearing it at the party so we can see it in action
