Hello and welcome to my channel!

Hi everyone. image I'm Nar! And it's great to be a part of this community. I'm pretty new at this whole costuming stuff. Only been at it this strong for about a year now. I'm a comic book illustrator by trade, currently working in the collector trading card field, developing artwork for it's fan base.

I absolutely love Tim Burton's BATMAN and always wanted to make or get a movie quality suit for Halloween. Eventually, it evolved into a deeper more creative interest when I found a community devoted to their passion in making Batman costumes. Well, I went through some adventures and some really crappy experiences trying to obtain this suit of mine which is still not finished lol. But all in all, it's been a great learning experience and although I don't see myself getting too involved with costumes and such, for now, I'm having such a great time, I will make the best of it.

On the left, you will see a glimpse of my batman suit work in progress. I have to give major props to Bob Dullam for creating such wonderful and screen accurate sculpts. I am currently in the process of making my latex cape and boots. Hopefully everything will look as sharp as the suit. I will do my best. =]

BTW, I do run a special BATMAN 1989 myspace page if in case any of you have a myspace and would like to connect with me there, heres the link! Hope to see ya! image

    Hey bro, I don't know why I just got this, since you sent it 3 or 4 days ago but, no suit will ever take the place of an 89. Although, I am thinking of going Returns next. What do you think?
    Did you , or do you plan to plasti dip your cape? Oh, send some pics of your cape once you get it trimmed. I think i need to trim like 6 or 7 inches to get the right length. If I do, Could I just trim the set amount up from the bottom all the way around? I really don't want to mess this thing up. I swear this cape weighs like 50 lbs or so. I think it might be the Artsee1 heavy 89 cape. Def an 89 though. But if this is the light, I feel bad for the bro in the heavy.

    Sweet! Good luck with the show. Don't worry bro, I can wait. After getting the Cowl and belt I have a few things to hold me over. I'd be very interested in a set of fins. I might be getting a set from Luda, but I will be needing a set for my Robin gloves. Good luck with the casting. I know a bit about this, so if you need help, hit me up. If I can't help you I can direct you to someone who can ;)
    Later Nar!

    Damn dude. If I had known I never would have plastidipped it in the first place LOL. I am happy that you like it. And if you ever do a TDK since you hooked me up bro I will get you a cowl at a steal of a price. I pulled my first last night and it came out mint with the exception of the top of the head I made it wayyyyy to thick LOL. if someone chopped the top half of there head off they could wear it LOL. next ones should be perfect though.

    Yeah, I felt bad doing it but I had to because the plasti was actually peeling off in between the pecs. When I rubbed it off, it peeled more. I literally had to lift one part of the plasti to get almost all of it off in one piece! lol..
    This latex cast is a big difference in mobility and weight. The urethane armor is such a pain to put on and move in. This one I got from you is so much lighter. I should have it ready and mounted next month. :]
    Take care buddy! Oh and I do have to see that cowl you pulled. I really want to get into making my own suits and cowls soon. Im planning to start small with an 89 and returns mini bust, just to learn the casting process, latex, etc.. :)
