Here we are. I recently got Scott Snyder's Batman Volume #5. I had read some before but on looking at the cover the design for this batman (survivalist batman, I like to call him) I instantly wanted to recreate it.
It uses the normal new 52 batman cowl and head but because the arms were exposed the colour difference in face and arms was ridiculous. I took darker tan arms from a gungan figure I had lying around and put them on instead. I then added purple gloves from a riddler fig for accuracy.
The body is the normal new 52 one but with backpack straps painted on and a extension of the cowl above the bat symbol. The legs have an indiana jones waist (for the belt strap) and simple grey legs that have been heavily painted with stripes on the sides and boots on the front and sides. I wanted to use the Batman over-moulded boots legs but at present I only have one set of those (from jokerland) and didn't want to ruin them.
The strap and pack combo is a classic brown backpack with the fixing removed and turned upside down. It is connected in two places to a dark brown sword sheathe (from a pirates of the Caribbean fig I think) which then fits over the soulder with the head above.

The competition is a weeklong event that tests Soldiers’ physical stamina, leadership, technical knowledge and skill. Winners in the Soldier and Noncommissioned Officer categories of the USAREUR competition will go on to compete at the Department of the Army level. (U.S. Army photo by Gertrud Zach)

560 A6M3 Model 22s were built between December 1942 and summer of 1943. The A6M3 was built after the Battle of Midway, with longer wings, folding wing-tips (for carrier use), a more powerful engine and the longest range of all the Zeros.
The first flight of the “Zero” fighter was April 1, 1939. Allied Intelligence applied the name “Zeke” to the A6M, but it was better known as the Zero, the name derived from its type designation after the year in which it was put into service – 1940. Mitsubishi and Nakajima built 10,449 “Zero” fighters (more than any other type of Japanese aircraft). The single-seat fighter has light-weight all-metal construction and fabric-covered control surfaces. As the fighting on Guadalcanal raged, the Zero 22s were rushed to Buna in New Guinea and Buka in the Solomon Islands to provide cover over the supply route to Guadalcanal.
Our Zero was delivered to the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Group #3. The aircraft was recovered from Babo in New Guinea in 1991, partially restored from several A6M3s in Russia, then brought to the United States for completion of restoral. In 1998 the aircraft was re-registered and displayed at the Santa Monica Museum of Flying. Currently, this aircraft has a Pratt & Whitney R1830 engine (compared to the original Sakai engine in the Planes of Fame Museum’s flyable A6M5 Zero). There is, nevertheless, the fact that Japan had a contract with Pratt & Whitney before WWII in which P&W provided engines for fighter planes and other aircraft. It is, therefore, conceivable that some of the planes participating in the Pearl Harbor attack could have been powered by American engines.
This Zero is currently one of only five flyable Zeros in the world.

This guy came in really fast, I barely had time to focus and he was gone again! Luckily I managed to catch him unblurred, just before he flew out of my viewfinder!
