Recently I got (much) more active on Deviant Art. And I stumbled on these pictures of a very talented artist! DahriAlGhul created a spectacular Batgirl. 🙂
In my opinion I never saw a digital Batgirl that looked so great. In some pictures you need to look pretty close to see that she is not real. The costume looks fantastic, he did choose wisely. I really love this costume from the Batman video games.
Here are some pictures of his Batgirl VS three thugs story:

If the producers of the “Birds of Prey”-movie would choose this costume with that cowl ….. I would be very, very, VERY happy 🙂
But back to the topic: Batgirl does look really fantastic in these pictures! Especially I love the pictures where the thug grabs her from behind. His hands so close to her cowl….he missed the opportunity to go for her cowl. But perhaps next time…. 😉

Here is the link for the Batgirl VS the three thugs gallery:
The VIP club will be updated on April 2nd, when I’m back. This post was scheduled…

And now it’s time to present some really well done masked heroines! You may have noticed in the past that I really like real cowls on a woman.
A sexy rubber cowl that really hides the secret identity….
And this guy has made a lot of great art with such masked heroines! Here are my favorites:

Especially I love the Batgirl with the cowl from Superman VS Batman. The expression on her face as Poison Ivys plants have ripped off her cowl (not just pulled off)… 🙂
Here is the link to his Deviant Art page, check it out:
Hey folks, I wanna present two Batgirl fan-movies that you really must see if you haven’t already. (Thanks to the guys who presented them at Behind the mask!)
The first one is Friday night in Gotham:
Batgirl VS…
….the thugs!

And here is the video:

Really well made fan movie! And pretty great fight scenes for such a limited budget! 🙂
It seems like they will make more Batgirl movies!

And the second movie that I wanna show you folks is:
Batgirl: Destiny calls
First as Barbara…
…and then: Batgirl!
The battle is really…hard.

And here is the movie:

I love the dark tone of this movie! Batgirl doesn’t just beat these goons easily, she has to suffer to win it!
Personally I don’t really like that Batgirl “burnside” costume…but at least she wears some sort of cowl that hides something.

As promised, I wanna share my impressions from my first comic con in Dortmund yesterday.
As I understand it we didn’t have comic cons in germany before 2015. And now we have the “german comic con” in 4 different cities throughout the year.
In addition there is the “comic con germany” that is just once a year.
As I heard it was very crowded on saturday. Last year they used 4 big halls, and the folks had enough space. This year they put the con in just 2 big halls…
Well, I was there on sunday. It was crowded, but not on a really annoying scale.
I was hoping to see some Catwomen, Batgirls and other masked, female heroines and villainesses.
There were lots of lots of women/girls that did cosplays from japanese mangas… and lots of Harley Quinn’s. And there were a lot of female cosplayers that “did” Star Wars and Game of Thrones.
But regarding masked women from DC or Marvel… well I saw/noticed one Black Cat, two Batgirls, three Catwomen, one Spider-girl (unmasked) and some masked assassin from the Court of owls. I hoped for more… and no Batwoman, no Canary, no masked Spier-girl/Gwen, no Spoiler. Of course I was only there on one day and of course you can’t see every cosplayer.
I definitely need to improve on my handling of my photo camera and the “photographer” skills. But I will learn from that experience.
From the material I have I edited around 10 really short clips into one short video.
But let’s start with some pictures (nearly all masked women are in the video) :
Three cars you all should know…
Resident Evil
Ghostbusters
2 Catwomen (the hidden one can be seen on the video)
Starship Troopers
Fallout
Fallout
Walking Dead – Neagan bats
Star Wars
Carl Weathers
Critters
Scary…
…Harley Quinn, female joker, Pennywise and beast/werewolf (?)

And here comes MY self-filmed video:
–
In the video you should find 3 Catwomen and one Batgirl (my favorite cosplay that day).
And if you look closely, you will find a second batgirl, without cowl (not facing the camera)
–
*EDIT* You can see that Batgirl and more great cosplays in this official video at around 0:40:
–
Well, actually these were my first Batgirl/Catwomen that I saw in “real” life. And that was a pretty great experience. I will try to attend more comic cons in the future. And I’m pretty sure that then I can present better picture/video material. It would be great if there was a con just for DC and Marvel.
But -after all- it was a promising start…
Thanks to all the cosplayers! Great Job!
Feel free to comment!
Did you visited comic cons in the past? What are your experiences?
The Helena Bertinelli “Batgirl style” was always my favorite Batgirl design. Well she was only a short time under that cowl, but I really like the all black design. She even modified the regular batgirl mask to the full face mask that Cassandra wore afterwards.
It’s very rare to find cosplays on that batgirl type, so it’s time to post one here:
(Preview)

And here is the video:

Wow….short video, but what a costume!
Love the black hair, boots and gloves. Very rare!
–
And, there are cosplay pictures as well:

Well, all these great pictures and the batgirl in the video are from Kamiko-Zero.
Over the years I read a lot of comics. Of course mainly these with masked heroines in it 😉
I posted some of these covers together with pages from the story. Now it’s time to show some of my favorite cover artworks with masked heroine in some sort of peril.
Another good comic scene was released in the last weeks. In this one Batgirl and Batwoman fight VS Azrael. And he is a great opponent!
But check it out!
(click to enlarge – 6 pages)
–
Well, that’s a fight!
Unfortunately there are no pages left out here. First I thought I skipped a page where Batgirl’s mask is ripped….but they just skipped that 🙁 . DAMN!!!!!!
But with a little imagination…. Batgirl’s full face mask leave so much oppotunities for a great unmaskings/mask damege/mask ripping. And it is a really well made fight sequence with two masked women. So, I shouldn’t complain. My two favorite masked heroines 🙂
Time for some more Batgirl! I made a special Batgirl cut from the Batman and Robin movie.
Every scene with Batgirl is in it. And well, that’s only a little over 4 minutes. But as much as I don’t like the batman “version” from Schumacher, I love the scenes with Batgirl.
Her costume is really great, pretty similar to the Birds of prey tv-show version that seems to have copied that design with some changes.
Of course I hate that damn eye mask, but for a short time she did have a real cowl on. Even if that cowl wasn’t attached to her suit or had a chin strap…. 🙁
Preview:
Time for action!
These lucky guys!
Time to save screamy Robin!

And here is the video:

I do have some nice material with “behind the scenes”-Batgirl material. I guess I will present that in the next weeks.
What’s your opinion on the movie and on this Batgirl version?
