    The Batman

    This is at least version 6 for me. I sold the last one to you know who, so I wanted to replace him with something different. I used the Columbia serials for a starting point with the baggier costume, bulky belt, and pointed mask. I took the short gloves from Bob Kane, and the sleeves exposing a bit of the arm from Paul Pope. The mask is several pieces of pleather glued down to a bald head.

          I really like it. I've always liked the look of the early version of Batman. Very cool. The cowl is awesome especially.

            Great job! I really like the way you interpret the characters, rather than going for the most common version you really make them unique, while still capturing the character perfectly.

                      Dude, the only thing I would change is the pleather glued to the head. The one piece that sits on the forhead & over the eyes makes Batman look sad. I absolutely love the idea, though.
                      Hey! Check out the pictures.

                        There's a bit of Paul Pope's Batman there. Of course Pope harkens back to the early Kane look.

                        Very cool realistic "original" Batman!

                          T-Bolt strikes again! That is sweet. Perfect, just perfect. I haven't built a Bat in quite awhile now. Seeing yours makes want to build a new one.

                            That is so cool. It has that "Serial" look to it. The mask is just Brilliant!!! I can't wait to see how you top this one!
                            Don't be sorry. How would you know? You've been watching MTV all your life.
