Here we go again. Back with some news here. First off got hands on a Latex Begins cowl. Fits me perfect and isnt as heavy as my urethane one.
Next Thing is really cool. A Friend of mine works at a steel factory around here. They are doing sheets for airplanes, Tank etc. He called my a few days back and said to me: Man, I´ve got something for you. I had no clue what it could be and so we met and he gave me these Beauties :
Made of 3mm thick Airplane-Aluminium. Light, Sharp and very detailed! They will be powder coated in a nice black or in a gold tone to match my belt. Awesome!
I also found a Undersuit to use on this project. I went with a 2mm Neoprene Wetsuit. For the german temperatures it´ll be okay. Havent recieved it yet, hopefully it will get here till christmas.
Last on the List is a brand new Bob D. Begins Urethane Chest V.3 . Still on its way so Im going to upload pics after I recieved it. Here´s one where I bought it.
I guess we´re heading straight foreward now ^^

Great looking chest armor Lars!:love
and what a kick ass gift from your friend :thumbsup. Can't wait to see them powder coated. Should look awesome.
I was just wondering, How are you going to tackle the bathroom breaks with the wetsuit? is there a zipper in the uhm.. grapes and banana area?

Happy New Year everybody and what can be better to start the Year with some good news on here ^^: Got my Wetsuit today. Had to pick it up at the customs but the afford was worth it. The Suit fits perfect although it is a XXXL instead of XXL im wearing usually. So jumped in it, took the Cowl and the Gauntlets and did some Test Shots:
Looks pretty okay to me, so I pulled out my Chestarmor as well and slipped it over the Suit. So dont wonder, it isnt fixated on the Suit yet.Just another Test Shot. Here we go:
Im pretty excited it went out that well. So next thing will be to find the right method of attaching the Armorparts to the Suit. Also Im thinking of going for new legs. I have a one pice Legarmor which Im not too happy with. I think single leg pieces will allow more comfort as well as a better flexibility. Maybe im going to replace them (after I found a source for single Legs ^^). That´s it for the moment.
Regards Lars
P.S.: Yeah I know Batman doesnt have a Beard

Hello friends,
As I was searching neoprene suits for other proposals, I found the company who made the neoprene undersuit. You might know already, but it's nice to share just in case. The company is Yamamoto. They manufacture the best neoprene on the market for several companies, and they even have a reference to Begins in their website.
The company is based in Japan, and they do sell sheets of neoprene. i didn't buy from them since shipping was too expensive to spain *sigh*, but they are extremely polite in the communication.
However, if you are looking for some already made wetsuits EXACTLY like the one Bale wore under the armor, this might help:
Nineplus | Retro Fullsuit
This is the same exact material he wears under the armor. I strongly recommend to look on the fitting table and once you know your perfect wetsuit size, then pick AT LEAST ONE SIZE BIGGER, if not two. Otherwise it's claustrophobic.
I don't come very often in this forum, so if you want to spread the word it would be better.
Keep up the good work guys!
