Young Justice Tim Drake

[BB12549]

I've started a Young Justice Tim Drake costume, this is my first ever cosplay and first activity on this website.....
I've made a mask out of an old top half mask then spray painted it black

I've got a shopping list I constructed using eBay could you guys give me some ideas on how to build the costume up while making it still look professional

BTW I was thinking of getting some chiffon material to put under the mask and give it the classic white eyed robin look - eye makeup is a bitch to get off

Looks like you've got a good start.
I like the chiffon idea.

Thank you I'll post an update as soon as the chiffon arrives

I tried the chiffon and found that you could see through it too well. Meaning the holes were too big. I even doubled it up and it looked kinda silly. I used a weed block mesh for your lawn spray painted 'lightly' white. It worked well. This is a picture from this weekend that will give you an idea of what it looks like on my Batman kit. Hope this helps and I agree with the comic/animated white eyes. It's almost a must for Batman or Robin

So what happened was a friend of mine mentioned that the eyes were too big.... I have to remake the mask... I'm using foam and plastic spray paint - I can't remember what the brands called so don't quote me, but yeah, because I'm 14 I don't know whether I'll get a growth spurt - I really hope so and the con I'm going to is in November I plan on getting everything ready by the start of September so don't expect anything apart from I don't know replies and comments on this thread


But yeah Batman - your costume is AWESOME, I'll definitely take your words to heart but I'm on a but of a budget so I'm thinking of remaking it if I have to but until I have to make the suit I'll bear that in mind - personally not a fan of bat-nipples but Val Kilmer's bat suit had nipples and no one cared I love the bat symbol most of all though
