Howdy, Fellow Bat Fans,
Just a quick question for all of You: In order to duplicate the "BatSprang" suit, I am needing to make a "muscle suit" to go under the Bat Suit so folks won't confuse me with Adam West. I've got the thick waist and I've been looking at Dick's artwork to get an idea of what I need to duplicate it. I can't afford the custom made one so I need to make it my self. What would You all think I should use to duplicate the look of the Muscles? It is obvious that Dick Drew Bat Man rather stocky, which is why I, since I'm stocky, but w/o the "ripped" chest and legs, I want to do the "BatSprang Suit". Well, the other reason is that I grew up with the 50's Bat Man. A friend here in Fairborn suggested that I use "Filter Foam".
What I am aiming for is to look like the comic version, but w/o the light blue. Chuck suggested, and I'm going to use is the "Navy/Black Shot Silk" (Thanks, Chuck ) for cape and Trunks.
I look forward to Your advice, Bat Fans! Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
