The Bat-Man of Gotham City

[thunderbolt]

Ever since my leather helmet/mask style Batman met his demise at the mouth of Sammy, I've wanted to redo him. I've also been itching to do a more Gotham By Gaslight inspired Bats, too. I found some thin gaberdine at Joann's that looks like wool at this scale, I used it on the cape and pants. He's got a metal grapple and batarangs. The cape also has a pocket on the inside for the batarangs to keep them handy.
Sepia tone BK-esque shot :)

[spiderrogue]

seriously, is your room filled with batman and hellboy customs? cuz that might actually be a cool thing.....

[thunderbolt]

^^^ Nope, I'm one of those guys that's bugged by multiple Batmen in a collection.

[spiderrogue]

you might get lynched for stating that on this board..lots of batman collectors out here...shhhhhh....:terror:

[thunderbolt]

Well, like when I was collecting Batman animated figures, I never went in for the variants. Actually most of my Batmen are in the possession of one KBR.

[spiderrogue]

i only did that if the figure was cooler than the normal one...

[QDOGG]

Another AWESOME job Joe! Your noir-style customs are the best:yes:

[twilitezoner]

Very nice. There can never be too many Batman customs.

[toys2cool]

[The Bat]

Very "Elseworlds".

[Boris71]

Very "Elseworlds".

I was thinking the same thing, kind of batman/houdini meets doom that came to gotham.

I was begining to think I was the only one that hated all the batman variants in the waves

[bobbait]

I really like the head design the most. It's different and cool at the same time.

Love the weight of that fabric. It drapes very well. Awesome photos, too!!

[spiderrogue]

another take on joe's b/w shot....
makes it look a little bit more "grainy" so to speak....

[Airdave817]

Very nice Elseworlds Batman!

[Wolverine1969]

Now that is a really cool Batman, great job!

[Alberto Malnati]

Great one Thundie!
another masterpiece!

[Mego Milk]

Aw Yeah 1st appearance lookin'!

[Cosmicman]

I really like what you did with your version of Batman's ears how you folded the material back behind his head. This would make a great Elseworld's Batman and definitely a good idea for a Batman in your line of characters.

Kudos!!!

[fembot]

the first shot almost looks like a real person, its that good

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

I especially like his very batlike cowl.
