Let's get nuts! Batman 89 build

[Darranged]

Awright, time for a 2014 build! Right now, I'm going back to the classics, still trying to figure out just what the hell Joker was on about when he mentioned pale moonlight dances. So, to start off with, we've got a lovely Coofunkcurly 89 cowl:

Some solid torso army from Drtfan:

And it came with some legs as well. Ladies:

I'm planning to make the undersuit a two-piece, with some compression gear, and I need to start sewing up my cape. Must add more panels to that.

Should be done in time for October at this rate!

Test fit of the torso, now that it has been mostly glued down. Once I've got the arms sorted, and a zipper installed at the back, the cowl should fit better above the oval. But it feels comfy so far!

You're going to make my head swell and be unable to fit in the cowl with comments like that .

I redid the torso top this weekend, as it was becoming a pain putting it on and fearing that I'd rip the rubber. A zipper was added, and I threw on the Arkham Origin ganutlets to get a feel of the costume. Think I might use these gauntlets for the final suit.

Just out of interest's sake, can anyone give me any pointers as to what I can use to clean the armour and give it a nice shine?

And I'm about done! I haven't had as much time as I wanted to build and finish this suit, but I'm happy enough to wear it. Will be taking this bad boy for a run next month.

One thing that I did do, was make the cowl just a tad bit darker, to match the suit. Made a nice difference, I think. Now to find some paint for my eyes, that won't run off in the Jozi heat.
