Merry Christmas Citizens!
My best friend in the world, and arguably a bigger Batman fan turns 50 on Monday.
So i made him a Utility Belt.
My second one I have made, and I think it far surpasses my first ( pilot) one.
I hope he likes it.
I made a few extra pouches to switch out my look on my belt- currently working on a batarang pouch.
the round tabs need thinner flaps but over all i am happy with the finished product.
Credit to Chuck- the buckle is his work and is the crown on the belt.
NewBelt!

Re: NewBelt!
Oooooooh ya! Looks fantastic! I may do the same thing as I ponder making a new belt myself. (I gave mine to Ddreddfan) I am sure your buddy will love your old one. I really like the idea of switching out looks of the pouches.

Re: NewBelt!
That looks great!!! I've been thinking of making one for myself. I need one to display my GhostDog buckle and to wear of course. 
I'm on Instagram as kustomjeff if you want to see more toy pics and some motorcycle stuff too.

Re: NewBelt!
That looks amazing. I like the fact that you made both types of closures. What type of paint did you use on the leather and rods?

Thank you guys!
I gave him the new belt, I will eventually make myself a new one.
I used Angelus yellow paint on the leather, acrylic paint spray paint on tubes and pouches.
Prime, paint, and clear coat.

Looks great batrunner! A lovely gesture as well, i'm sure most Bat-Fan's would flip to receive such a great gift, especially a bespoke one at that!

Re: NewBelt!
Thanks for the paint directions. I've been working on one with vinyl, but I think I need to upgrade to the leather.
