Oops. I did know that. LOL. Freaking autocorrect on my Ipad! Thanks.TIEnTEEZ wrote:Yowza! Fantastic!
Um... Did you spell her name right? It's hard to tell with the dark hair, but that looks a lot like Angela Sommers (not Summer).
Yeah, you nailed it.DrObiCaffi wrote:My eyes just popped out of my head, my jaw dropped into my lap, and my heart started beating through my chest. OW OW OW OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Did I give off the appropriate classic cartoon vibe there?
Nope, he forgot the tongue unfurling like a roll of carpet from the open jaw.TIEnTEEZ wrote:Yeah, you nailed it.DrObiCaffi wrote:My eyes just popped out of my head, my jaw dropped into my lap, and my heart started beating through my chest.

I was wondering that myself!TIEnTEEZ wrote:So, is that a wig? Or did she cut her hair short and go dark?
Whatever it is, I love it.
Thanks. We are very excited too.batgirl1969 wrote:Omg.. i serously cant wait for this..finally something that may be more a favorite for me than o-girl trapped in time or even the original pattern cutter...you have no idea how perky..how exciting...how titilating this is!
We are really going to try to re-create the look of the show. The Batgirl costume is about the best replica I could muster - down to the fabric, which is not at all like the spandex of today. We will see. I have a 24 page script to shoot on Tuesday. It promises to be a fun, but quite exhausting shoot. I hope it lives up to everyone's expectations (including my own).ledonatello wrote:WOW. This looks amazing! This has totally made my day. If anyone was ever going to do this properly, it would be Jim Weathers! I can't get over how much that first picture resembles Yvonne Craig! Well done!
I've been hoping you'd do a Batgirl project, ever since I came across your old Batgirl-Catwoman photo shoot in 1999. The costume looks great! The only thing I would change is the Barbara Gordon hairstyle, because I really like the sweep-across-the-forehead look she had. That is, however, a trifling detail. I'm looking forward to this. That pic was actually just a quick trial. We are going to try to get her hair to do that... we'll see.cdrei wrote:Woot!

Wow, it is like the 1960s all over again, only probably with a bigger budget than the actual TV show. :-) O-girl was great, but I always hoped you would produce the actual Batgirl at some point. Looks like I have to sign up for your site again. :-) If the work is next week, do you have an ETA for the release? Video as well as pictures? Thanks!JWeathers wrote:Hey everyone,

Actually they had a huge budget originally. It was just in the third season that they cut back. It was still a freakin' expensive show. All those crazy one use sets and death traps....

No, these are just two different things. I am going to continue to shoot O-girl and Nylonika stuff as well. I am not sure they will be combined. They are kinda two different things in their own similar homage sort of way.avenger wrote:since no one else asked, I guess I will.....but what happens to O-Girl? are you cutting back on her character? are you planning on retiring O-Girl? is there any chance of a 'cross-over' with O-Girl and Batgirl, or are you going to keep them strictly in their own worlds? I'd really hate to see O-Girl go because I was with you since the beginning with the original O-Girl story....
Well, I know what I want to do - but until I have a chance to build it all this weekend, I can't really say that is what is going to happen.RedMountain wrote:Any hints on what types of peril we can expect with her?
Jim Weathers + Batgirl? I have every confidence that it will be awesome. What could possibly go wrong?JWeathers wrote:Well, after spending the lst few days buried in the studio building crazy props (small and quite large), it is finally the day to shoot this. We are all hoping it goes well. Because can't do everything that individuals want, we are just going to make the best thing we can and hope for the best.
I'm bringing my iPad and thaving Jewel and other take behind he scenes photos. I hope everyone enjoys what we do

Days' worth of props? Hmmmm, sounds like poor Batgirl is going to be in trouble. ;-) Quite large props? -Definitely- in trouble. :-)JWeathers wrote:Well, after spending the lst few days buried in the studio building crazy props (small and quite large), it is finally the day to shoot this. .......
