Cape - MU Vision (These are starting to get expensive lol!)
Body - MU Captain Marvel
Lower Legs / Glove Spikes - MU Spiderman 2099
Belt - DCIH Gotham Knights Batman

This looks great! But the head reminds me of a darker Batman.

Thanks! Photo was taken on the day Robin got the crowbar treatment. I may give the head a second coat of paint to get it a little lighter.

He has a Jim Lee Batman look to him, which is one of my favorites! Excellent work.

Love it. I'm inspired to maybe make a Batman custom for my dad, who was a big fan of the serials and tv show as a kid. I really like the way he's got a very "retro" look, but looks no less intimidating than any modern incarnation.

I am and will always be a Blue costume Batman fan. And this is a great custom of that version. This really turned out great.

I was trying to put words together to describe this very thing. If they made a Batman tv show today this would be a good place to start. Retro made modern. Great job all around on this guy.
