WIP Batgirl II- Barbara Gordon

[artofeloquence]

I've slowly been making the pieces for this costume. I have everything done but the gloves! How exciting!

Pictures to be added later of my suit and cape!
Cowl (not pictured yet) was created by Reevz666

Looks cool so far, post up the rest

Trial run of the costume-no contacts or makeup

 

[Rickhemingway]

Nice! It's looking really good. You gonna try it out at any of the cons? I really like the cape. Did you make the cowl, or where did you get it from?

 

[Doh2]

Nice job! That cape especially came out great.

 

[artofeloquence]

Thank you!
I will be bringing Batgirl to Connecticon next month.
As mentioned the cowl is made by the wonderfully talented Reevz666 ( View Profile: reevz666 - the RPF )
Id also like to mention that the fins on the gloves were not made by me ( I did alter the color from the original black though) - they were created by the owner of artsee1.com

Makeup test!

 

[Sundowner]

The costume and make up is spot on! Nice work!

I dig the Joker poster in the first set of pictures

 

[Ciano930]

Looks class! did you make it all (bar the cowl)?

 

[artofeloquence]

The fins on the gloves are also not my work as mentioned above.
Didn't make the wig either. ahah.
the boot covers I must say I am the most proud of- originally I was just going to alter some yellow boots but I wasn't fond of the material So i cut most of it off and hot glued my own on.
Belt is pleather and wood dowels that I cut and rounded the tips.
The outside of the cape is black pleather and inside is yellow lining.
I was going to make the gloves out of the same material but it is a very very thick yellow pleather- so those are just yellow strech costume gloves that I dyed and altered.
Sans the Cowl the entire thing is either crafted or altered by me

Looks really great, right out of the comics. Awesome job.

 

[Snikt]

Man it looks really good, the make up and costume look great. I really like the boots, never seen that done with the tops looking like bats etc. Great work! Too bad you cant make it out to SDCC this year! You would have definitely got some fans right away!

 

[artofeloquence]

Aw guys thank you! I'm relatively new to the whole sewing & cosplay thing so it really is encouraging! Im on the east coast so SDCC isn't a viable option yet for this broke college student haha.
One day though!

 

[GrayFoxFlavio]

Wow you are awesome! And pretty cute

 

[MBOWLIN07]

Have you gone to any conventions lately with this costume? Or are you planning on it? Great work by the way.

 

[artofeloquence]

Thank you guys!
I haven't brought this costume anywhere yet. The only cosplay I've worn to a con so far is my Harley Quinn. I am bringing this along with my black widow and Alice in wonderland to Connecticon next week- super duper excited!!

 

[Alejandroos]

Great job! You really look the part.

 

[artofeloquence]

Thank you!

I absolutely love this picture. These kids were absolutely amazing.

I take no credit for photos. I'm using them because they are my face.
