Re: The Definitive BvS: Dawn Of Justice Batsuit Research Thread

Hey everyone,

I'll be making a build thread later but here's some progress on my own suit. The cowl is already in this thread so I won't post more pics of that but here are the gauntlets we recently finished. I weathered a set to look more like in the movie, I think it adds a really cool look to them. On to the belt next and then the muscle suit, gulp.

Thanks Bruce, the wraps only come with the full set of gauntlets, fins, wraps and knuckles. It's all designed to fit together as one unit.

As a wise man once said, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.. but puff painting is just too time consuming.... Anyways, I got my V2 suit here. Puff painting begun! Any feedback would be great. IMG_0789.PNGIMG_0788.PNGIMG_0787.PNGIMG_0791.PNG

Is that the Prime Props pattern? That's what I bought, and if it looks like this after puff painting, I'm definitely doing it. Only problem is I've already had mine sewn
 
Re: The Definitive BvS: Dawn Of Justice Batsuit Research Thread

Indeed it is Prime Props'. I had a great one done by Mau5 a few months ago. Nearly completed that one but this one's a bit more accurate. I got this one printed from Fabric on Demand. Not bad, but the color is a little off. The blue doesn't really show, and there are a few low lights covering the suit. You can see a streak of it in the chest area towards the left on the third picture. I can fix the low lights by covering them with the puff paint and the silver, but I can't really do anything about the blue. Regardless, it was a pretty solid print overall. If you have already gotten yours sewn, I think you can still do a pretty good job puff painting it. Just pin it down to a hard surface. I haven't sewn mine because I thought it would be more convenient to puff paint it like that. And I don't know where to get it sewn. Any suggestions? I've heard of a member going by the name of "trophy wife". But that's about it. Anyways, I'd love to see your suit sewn up! I haven't seen this one sewn yet.

Not the cape our gauntlets I'm using, but here's the Prime Props pattern, printed by FoD. I've got to attach the emblem yet, but I very much like it.image.jpeg

That is one bad ass suit. I can't wait to get mine sewn. Just gotta finishing painting. After, I'm planning on gluing the suit to a muscle suit I have. Is that a cowl by the batsmith by the way? Suit looks fantastic overall. Closest I've seen so far.

Re: The Definitive BvS: Dawn Of Justice Batsuit Research Thread

I'm going to Puffy paint mine too and add the silver inlay. Does anyone have a closer picture of how the inlay is applied? Also what did you use for the silver inlay? It's the only thing I'm not sure about.
 
Re: The Definitive BvS: Dawn Of Justice Batsuit Research Thread

When adding the silver, be sure to add a copious amount of it so it will shine better. I am having to go back and do it over to make it pop out more. Here are a few pictures of it closer. One of them is blurry but shows just how much it can shine when done correctly. So far, it's just the thicker ticks painted since the nozzle is too big for the thinner ones, but they will also be done. IMG_0892.PNGIMG_0891.PNGIMG_0890.PNGIMG_0889.PNG

image.jpegimage.jpegGauntlets, hand wraps, and brass knuckles made from craft foam. Gloves are Dura-Thin leather gloves from Amazon. I need to add the thumb knuckles, but for a total cost of around $25 for all of it, I'm pleased.
