Now, theres been a lot of talk as to what exactly the new suit is going to look like. This got me thinkin', what is YOUR perfect Batsuit?
I have two options
Low budget or high Budget
If it were low-budget, like Dead End, the suit would be like... Dead End's. BUT there woul be a few serious changes.
First, it would all be shades of black, not gray, even the belt. The Batsuit is built on using the darkness as a weapon, the suit should employ the strength. It also wouldnt be suit-to-skin. There would be a layer underneath the fabric, of scuplted armor. The suit has to protect Bats too, thats why he waers one, so a layer of body armor underneath is essential.
In other words, the Spidey suit style, in Batman's design.
If it were "high budget" it would look mostly like the Batman Returns suit. The armor plating in the front, instead of the sculpted muscle look, seems incredibly practical. But the upper body is scuplted too, not armorish enough, too muscley. And also, its not nearly mobile enough, I mean Keaton couldnt even turn his head.
But if I had to choose I'd pick option one. Practicality serves a purpose and creates an aura of realism. Just imagine a black Batsuit thats mobile enough that you have complete range of motion. and, above all, LOOKS like something someone would actually have.
What about you guys?
