the dark knight batcage

small update since my welding guy was busy with fireman training me and my friends debated if we put a floor around it .
Since it will be show at several cons safety we decided for a floor so here is a picture of cage bottom in what will look like a concrete floor.

The Floor is just big enough for the doors to rest on the floor (again safety) cause this cage is Top Heavy and has more chance to fall over if we didn't do it like this.

Yarooon this is looking very nice mate! You've literally read my mind! I've always been a batman fanatic and have always wanted a proper suit for display at home, and now that I can afford it I got myself a Hot Toys Batman Armory 1:6 scale as prototype and was planning on starting this project once I source the suit (not planning on building it since I lack the skill and experience!).

I will def be following up on this project, will be taking notes ;) good luck!
 
im not displaying at home mate its to big to stay at home unfortunatly
im building so i can show it at the rpf stand at facts in belgium
