About this deal

The Season 2 costume is more armored than Season 3's, but with the same black-and-orange color scheme. They can be heated and bent, are flexible enough to wear comfortably, they're strong, and hot glue creates really strong joins between edges and layered sections.

The colors, however, are less well-distributed, the center of his mass are entirely black with only parts of his wrist gauntlets and boots being orange, and as such the suit fails to leave much of an impression. It only takes an observer one chance to see you jump into the air or fade into it before your identity is on the evening news and people come running to figure out precisely what makes you tick. I used duct tape to cover most of my neck and shoulders (Be careful not to make it so tight as to restrict your breathing) then carefully peeled the front flap away from my skin and cut it open. Deathstroke keeps a set of Japanese Swords and Knives which displays his class from choosing such weapon to attempt on his enemies. These were then pinned to EVA foam sheets and traced around so that the designs could be cut from foam as previously shown.

Additionally, he often wears a utility belt with various pouches and sometimes carries a tactical backpack. I did not have any orange spray paint, so I used watered down acrylic (1:2 paint/water ratio) to reduce viscosity and prevent brush strokes showing up.

Gradually fading out from grooves gives the illusion that they are darker than the surrounding paint. For the majority of the armour, I determined the size of each individual section by scaling the CGI render to my height.I tacked them into place with hot glue, but anything other than direct foam-to-foam doesn't adhere well, so they required stitching in place. It was great for two things; chamfering foam details that I'd already stuck down and were inconvenient to cut with a knife, and using as a spatula to melt and smooth out glue along "weld" lines.

The costume incorporated the classic blue colors in a non-distracting manner and took inspiration from the Arkham Origins suit for an overall armored look, but the stand-out is the downright scary mask. To accurately portray Deathstroke, focus on embodying his confident, strategic, and intimidating presence.Deathstroke Gloves are constructed from multiple materials, including nylon, sheep leather, Polyamide and others. It's rather gaudy in comparison to Slade's later outfits, being fashioned primarily from cloth instead of armor, the exaggerated-edges of the gloves and the boots, and being brightly colored in a manner not befitting Deathstroke's persona. The costume ditches Deathstroke's traditional color scheme for a darker black-and-orange, but harkens back to the original George Pérez design by being primarily fabric, including his mask, with only a few scattered armored plates incorporated.
