Costume Information

General
Cost :	£50 at least
Time Taken :	3 Months

Description
A lot of the costume was found in charity shops, i.e. the Jacket and Trousers. The question marks on the jacket were all hand painted to give it a rough effect. The gloves were normal leather gloves from Asda which I painted and cut the fingers off of. The hat was bought from Camden and spray painted green. The cane was made from a wooden pole, clear hose, a metal hook and foam pipe insulation. The most expensive part of the costume was the paints for the cane and clothes. I chose to make the costume as I thought that most people would choose to cosplay as more popular Batman Characters at the expo and since this was my first cosplay I thought I would be quite a simple one to do.

Thanks! I'm glad someone likes it! I tried to make it look as close to the one in the game as possible.
