PR2 batphone build
This is going to be a slooowwww build over the next (hopefully) few months. I am hoping this thread will be of use to someone who wants to build their own batphone from our favorite TV series

Really enjoyed the motherload of photos in the RPF link that you shared. Did you decide the pursue the Gordon's office version versus the Pilot or Bruce's study in the end?

Re: PR2 batphone build
Got my best test casting out a few weeks ago! After about 9 different resins and 12 different pigments I found a mix I like. The test casting is thin, but that's only to avoid wasting too much resin for castings that aren't going to be kept

Re: PR2 batphone build
Thanks for the complements guys! Laying more resin in this afternoon if all goes well, planning to do a proper casting this time instead of keeping it thin
