Kelley Jones/ Batman Vampire Cowl

[TheKillingDraik]

Hi everyone, This is my first post on the forum, though I've posted a lot my stuff in the facebook group. I wanted to show you all my Batman cowl, inspired by the art of Kelley Jones. His art has always been some of my favorite, and so coming up with an idea to cosplay his version, there are no cowls on the market with such long ears. It was sculpted in chavant, and molded in fiberglass. I used tinted latex to run it, with burlap stippled into the ears to help stiffen them up. To go with this I'll be making a full costume, including cape and muscle suit. I've also already cast up pieces for the belt and started painting them.



All the photos here are from my first casting and I'll be pulling the second one this evening. Kelley Jones himself shared this one his facebook and I'll be sending this second one to him as a gift.

I bet those ears were a pain the butt. Nice work, TKD. And congrats on your graduation from "lurker" status

Props to you for being able to mold those ears bro! I had trouble doing just regular ears.
