Scott, last year I added a small modification to the cape. I made a narrow pocket down each side of the cape, just wide enough to fit a thin 3’ wooden dowel. This allows me to hold the dowels when I lift my arms, displaying a very impressive 10’ wingspan. Thought your Batman fans might like to add this addition to your magnificent design.
Hey Scott. New to the channel but just wanted to thank you for these tutorials. I'm starting to get into cosplay and costuming and I want my first build to be a recreation of Batman from the 1992 Animated Series so these tutorials are going to come in real handy for guides as I start to plan and prepare for the work. You're really informative while keeping the instructions very clear to follow and understand so I really appreciate it!
Dude!!! You totally rock! My SIL asked me to make some super hero capes for her VBS this month. I have been going nuts trying to decide how to do them since I'm fairly new to sewing. Then I found your videos ..... WHOA!!!! You just rock. I can't follow a pattern to save my life and you speak my language ... I can follow your directions to a T. Love it! Thank you!!!!
Scott, God bless ... you ROCK! A few years back I decided to become Batman for Mardi Gras. I bought a 1960's costume and the reaction I got from kids along the parade route was amazing. So each year I upgraded a little. I now have the 80;s or 90's version costume.When I was looking into getting a new cowl, I came across your video describing modifications to the Rubbie cowl and then this video. You did an amazing job explaining everything and made it extremely simple for someone who had never used a sewing machine to make the cape and hood.I think mine came out GREAT and I would have never known how to do it without your help! So I can't thank you enough for posting these amazing videos. You're helping me put a lot of smiles on the faces of people here in New Orleans the next couple of weeks.
Man i love your channel! i just watched allot of your videos and i enjoyed every single one of them! You honestly deserve many more subscribers, especially with your quality content! Have a great day sir! :)
Love love love you tutorial! You did a great job at explains what you did. 😊. I made a batman costume for my oldest grandson a couple of years ago and he loved it. Wish I had used the stretch pleather 😕. My youngest grandson, he is five has requested that I make him a batman cape, so I'm glad I found your tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing. 👍
+Drew Horine Happy to help! Check out our Facebook group and you can meet some more cosplaying Christian comic fans! facebook.com/groups/1539254296322945/
I have successfully made this cape thanks to your vid but I yoused micro fiber material looks great and flows good in the breezes thank you the paster of my church loves it to
Hello Sir. Thank You for this tutorial. I am doing a Batman: The Animated Series costume to put in an appearance with a group of developmentally disable kids and the cape was alluding me. I'm terrified to make this thing, haven't sewed much since college, but your tutorial has helped me tremendously!
Hi I was wondering about the material. It says 4.6 yards then it said 6 yards. I just ordred 5 yards. Do you think that will be enough for the cape? Thanks. You make great videos! Thanks!
+Jean-Paul Juge I actually made the spandex suit myself. The fabric comes from www.spandexhouse.com (gunmetal grey, miliskin spandex). You can buy similar bodysuits online, however. You might try using Under Armor as well. The Bat is sewn on, also made of spandex. But I might do a tutorial soon and making the emblem.
thinks for the tip of the video could use some tips cuz I am making a batman suit right I just need some tips on it right now some can I use like a Under Armour shirt and pants to use it for the Batman suit it's made out of spandex material and I was wondering if I could use that to make the Batman suit out of
ok I'm going to make the ben affleck batman cape and how it looks is the ends of the wing where it drops from your shoulders and it not a six pice its a four pice and all put together it has four of thoughs arches my question is do i fold the larger pice in half or do i cut one big arch what i mean is when you first started to cut the fabric into the triangle would i just cut the full arch or would i just fold it to give it one big curve
Hi Scott, Can I ask where you got the Spandex costume with that Bat Symbol on it? I have tried to find that myself but the ones I have run across do not have that symbol.
+Michael D I made this one myself. Both the body suit and symbol are spandex. I just used an image I found online of the Arkham style symbol and used that as a pattern.
etsy.com! Alot of makers on there really do great work when it comes to batman movie and comic style costumes. They are very proud of there work so you'll be paying a pretty penny lol
Scott, this is a truly wonderful, clear tutorial! Before I saw it, I was going nuts trying measure out the panels without wasting fabric. Your steps make it look so simple... But here's a question: if you're just going to cut a hole at the top for your head, why do you need to lock that stitch? I plan on making one without the hood and just attaches at the top. Should I lock the stitches below what will be my neck hole? Thanks!
The only reason I lock those stitches is to keep the seams from coming apart before I cut the neck line, but it you don't want to take the extra time/thread to do that, just be careful with it until you cut the neck.
I am doing a Red Robin Cape which is really similar to batmans cape and im not talking about new 52 Red Robin. but when you make the hood would you advise make that the mask as well ?
hey scott, awesome tutorials really loving the videos. I'm thinking about attempting to make a pretty new 52 red Robin costume and was wondering what you suggest I use for the head? should I make a separate helmet like the batman cowl?
I'm planning to make a Batman costume based on his very first appearance (detective comics #27), but could figure out how to join the cowl onto the cape. Now I know I don't. Thanks for the video
Well I followed you pattern but messed up on attaching the hood to the cape. I'm thinking about leaving it unattached as I already made the cape part but trimmed way too much from the neck because of a screw up. New to sewing and I don't want to mess up again until I have more experience. Anyway I livestream and plan on giving you the credit on the how to while doing my cosplay Arkham livestream
I did the same thing as you and one side is always short ive redone it multiple times it used 70 inches and the sides always come out short. would you be able to do this for me if i paid you?
Hey Scott, I was wandering if you've ever tried to make holes or some type of holders for stick in a cape so you could do the whole Batman '89 thing. Would be awesome if you have and I wouldn't mind a tutorial, because all of your work is brilliant (especially the muscle suit)
ok, I followed the cape tutorial, but altered it for batgirl, but now im looking for a quieter material any idea of what I should use? Pleather is freaking loud.
ive been working on a wolverine cosplay for fanboy expo in Knoxville and I've got the claws and everything set for the most part but I just need a cowl. I actually have one of those latex cowls that you can find online for about $14. For the most part it's a pretty decent mask but what I want to know is if you could make a tutorial of how to make a wolverine cowl or to edit one like the one I have or another model.
I've made one of these before and now I'm making a new one, which fabric from either shop did you get. Does it have a matte finish? And does it have a leather texture? If you have a link it'd be fantastic. Would you recommend 4 or 2 way stretch? Thanks, I live the current one I have but I need a new one that fits under my new cowl and has a different texture, I need a matte black with a leather texture for it to match up.
Great video (same for the one about restoring the rubies cowl) - thanks for sharing! I'm thinking of attempting... can you tell me if the cape can open up with extensions to give the full batwing appearance like in Michael Keaton;s costume, please? Also, how do you find stretch pleather online that doesn't have that grey mesh fabric on the reverse side?
Little question. Would it be a good idea to just leave the cowl as it is (with all the extra rubber) just trim it a little bit, and then atach a cape to that rubber? A bit like the Keaton costume of '89?
+cueballB You can certainly do that. For me the neck is too short and doesn't quite reach my shoulders, plus removing the neck allows you to turn your head better. But do what works best for you!
Scott, last year I added a small modification to the cape. I made a narrow pocket down each side of the cape, just wide enough to fit a thin 3’ wooden dowel.
This allows me to hold the dowels when I lift my arms, displaying a very impressive 10’ wingspan. Thought your Batman fans might like to add this addition to your magnificent design.

how did you actually add the image though? And whats it made from?
great job dude I love your videos I just watched every single one
Great vid but I already have a cape so I opted to pasti dip a painters sock black and cut out the face
Very good
I like to make that costume for my DC comic fan films

Makes sense -- thanks!
@@ScottBayles 6 years late, but does this mean you didn't have to re-stitch the panels after you cut the neckline?
I have a batman cowl and it has wrinkles and i put my cape in the cowl so it would get its original shape back will that help or not?
I am doing a Red Robin Cape which is really similar to batmans cape and im not talking about new 52 Red Robin. but when you make the hood would you advise make that the mask as well ?

ironman2199 check out his other video. He makes a flash cowl but that tutorial could easily be used for a Red Robin cowl
Yep!
I'm planning to make a Batman costume based on his very first appearance (detective comics #27), but could figure out how to join the cowl onto the cape. Now I know I don't. Thanks for the video
Hello my friend i dunno where u are how u have been but thanks for this. Lots of love❤

I only plasti diped the neck portion that shows for ventilation
Terrific job!

Beautiful!! Love it!
Fabulous video. Thank you
how do you make a spandex suit with turtleneck
Can this material be washed? It has a strong odor to it

Thanks! I have not tried that yet, but I plan to with my next cape.
I'm using your design to make a Space Ghost costume. :)
After you cut the semi circle out from the head, how do you keep the tops of the panels from coming apart? Do you add some quick stitches?
You can. I didn't actually need to when making mine, but I was careful not to let the thread pull apart.
ok, I followed the cape tutorial, but altered it for batgirl, but now im looking for a quieter material any idea of what I should use? Pleather is freaking loud.

Cool video dude:).
I love the way your gloves came out. will there be a tutorial for how you made them?
If you aren't attaching a hood or pulling it over your head, do you need the stretch material?
Question with the Batman Hood and Batman cowl face can they work well together to make an awesome batman mask
hey man can you please do a tutorial on printing that bat on your batman costume
Brilliant Thank you so much
One question: Where did you get the batman costume? (website recomendations?)
Also, great video! 😁

Hello .how Can i fit a mask . I have bought one but The mask doesn t fit . Greets from Holland
im gonna make mine the blue 70s suit
I'd love to see that.
vc vende a cape e mascara pro brazil
Can yo make batman arckham origins cape and cowl
Can u pick a link for the pleather ?
how much would you charge to make that
How to make that cowl??
Awesome stuff!!!
Could you attach the cowl to the hood to make it all one peice?
For this Batman cape you are using a length of 72 inches. The Batman 66 cape looks smaller, so how many inches should I need for that ?
Yes. The 1966 cape should be shorter. I would say about 55" to 58" depending on how tall you are.
would it be possible to make a tutorial on how to make a black adam and shazamm cape?
How much does making a cape like this cost?
Scott, I have question. You showed us the method to make 1-piece hood and cape. Is it possible to make a Cowl from hood
It's question, just forgotten to add ?
Little question. Would it be a good idea to just leave the cowl as it is (with all the extra rubber) just trim it a little bit, and then atach a cape to that rubber? A bit like the Keaton costume of '89?
+cueballB You can certainly do that. For me the neck is too short and doesn't quite reach my shoulders, plus removing the neck allows you to turn your head better. But do what works best for you!
Scott Bayles Yeah, i'm not very good at crafting. Cutting the cowl like you did, well, in my hands it'd be completely destroyed :)
i know you may have posted this a while ago but i was wondering, where did you get the main suit and how much was it because it looks awesome!!!
were or how did you get thar costume
What if I want smaller blades at the bottom of the cape.
Project-awesome customs and music just do 2 or 3 smaller shapes.
