Batman Dead End suit

This is one of 3 suits that was used in Batman Dead End. I bought it from Sandy Collora himself. Sadly he had already sold the gloves, belt, boots, cape and 2 Batarangs. The cowls all deteriorated one year after the movie. Had something to do with the material used and how thin the cowls were...

Cant realy see what model it is..

So if there is someone out there who know more details, please let me know

[SuperBatMan]

Wow, very nice to see some pictures of the real deal!
Have purchase the EvilTiki Cowl and i'm realy happy with it

Does someone have some details for the boots?

Not yet, have tried to contact New Rock and send them a few reference pictures of the boots, but no respond.
Also tried to contact Renegade Effects Group on Facebook, they have also worked on this costume..
they have read my message but still no respond.

Have no update at the moment for my Dead End Costume, but i guess i will ask someone who is good in leather work for the gloves, what i dont like on the gloves are the fins, maybe i will use some rubber fins from Tigerstone..

Damn this one is a hard one to source and put together hope you are able to find some parts and please give some updates because i could use it

I'm not sure if this helps, but I remember finding this image on one of the forums out there for superhero costuming. I saved because I believe it's a photo of the dead end boots which are one of the harder parts of find on this costume. Hope it helps

 

[SuperBatMan]

Wow that's the best reference i have ever seen !!
But have still no idea which NEW ROCK Boot they have used for
The bat looks similiar to the bat of the clooney boots:

Love that film! One of my favorite Batman takes. World's finest fan film would be my favorite Superman.

I forgot to mention, I believe that the Dead End belt has two large pouches of a similar design to the smaller ones. I used to have a photo, but I haven't been able to find it. Starting from the right side of the buckle, there were two small pouches followed by one large pouch another small pouch another large pouch and then four small pouches if memory serves.

Can I just ask on what was the cowl made out of while in production of the short film because when i see the short for the first time the first question that popped up in my head was how did he turn his head if that is a urethane mask
