My 1966 Robin Costume

Post by Robintheboywonder »

My photographer who did my new music ministry photos recently asked me to do a fun photo shoot with my Robin costume. Here is one of the pictures! The costume (fabric parts) are made by my mother, Elizabeth. She does awesome work! Recently, her costume was featured in Hawaii's superhero exhibit.

(PM me with any questions!)

The costumes are always so fun to work with and put on!!! Can't wait for the next bat event!!! I missed Comic Con this year.... :cry:

Holy Tailoring! Sweet job on that outfit.
(Can we see a shot with the color brightened up a bit?)
