Dremel a Batman Foam Board Master for a Plaster Mold by MalmeyStudios
Contest WinnerFeatured
This may be a little late for Halloween this year but if your like me you'll need some practice and a jump on next year. The main tool I used was the Dremel so I decided to enter this into the Dremel contest, what the hech, Right? This foam board master is based on the Batman Dark Knight Suit. I have used this method on Batman, Creature from the Black Lagoon and Godzilla (planned later this year) Costumes. Once this foam board is done you can pour plaster of paris into it and make a reverse stone mold. Pour latex into that and you have a batsuit (in this case) costume! I will go into detail for those steps in a different ible, Expect that one early next year! Anyway back to this one, this is just instruction on how to make a foam master. Again this has the potiental to work for nearly any costume, your only limited by your imagination!

Thanks for both of your comments. I didn't want to enter this into the halloween contest as it was just the master. I haven't finished the whole ible as of yet. I will enter the complete ible next year.

Thanks Again
