The Shadow WIP

[real9thdoctor]

Just read through this: you could give Alec Baldwin a run for his money!! Seriously though, your outfit definitely evokes the pulps!

As for using both capes: I think that would work. I would definitely ask your GF about sewing the collars together, as that would unify them and keep them from moving individually when wearing them.

Concerning the ends on your guns: If you're unhappy with how the glue ended up, a craft knife can pare down the glue. Rubbing alcohol also removes it without a mark if you want to redo the ends.

I am not terribly worried. I was gonna pare the plug down, but I kinda think the messier it looks the better simply from the standpoint of making it not look real.

And thanks. I think I could give Alec a run for his money NOW lol.

Wanted to go bigger with it, but we have noise rules at my apartment complex. Plus I was making my GF almost pee herself from trying to not laugh out loud.

The pistols in the movie were customized .45 magnum pistols. I guess they didn't think regular Colt 1911s were large enough.

Yeah, I was gonna paint these to look like the film, but considering these suckers look very realistic I got scared and left them as is apart from painting the grips. That's also why I filled the barrels. Which I hate to have done, but better safe than sorry.
