Batgirl boots

Post by Aussie Batfan »

Hi everyone,
A friend is helping me with a Batgirl model - does anyone have any Hi Res photos of Yvonne's boots?
Trying to work out colors...
Thanks in advance

Definitely purple, even though the fabric sometimes photographed blue.

Thanks Therin.
The friend helping with the model was just trying to work out the varying shades of purple on the costume (i.e. the lighter shade of the gloves versus the tunic, etc.)
From the photo above the boots seem to be pretty much the same shade as the leotard...
Take care,
Terry

My friend colour-changed a pair of black boots with off-the-shelf purple Meltonian back in the 80s.

I don't think I have any boot shots. The gloves came from a specialist glove shop, but she never got around to adding the fins. The mesh belt was coincidentally hanging in the belt section of a department store, which I happened to notice as we were leaving the store after buying the purple fabric for the main costume. Love such serendipity.

Ah! Correction! A boot shot, but not very clear:

They are photographing quite dark here. Lighting is the key with cosplay pics!
