You'd think Steampunk Batman could have worked in a better mask.

I dunno... I was just about to comment that the detail on his outfit is really quite astonishing... the gears and magnifying eyepiece goggles are pretty darned cool...
Thats kinda my point. Everything else is astounding. The fact that you have to wear a mask to things like this is annoying. But if you're doing cosplay, it would seem like a good idea to build in the mask. To make it part of the aesthetic.

Oh, I didn't think you were referring to his mask in the sense of masking. I'm not sure how you'd work it into the steampunk aesthetic, with it still performing its desired function and still clearly being a mask of the kind required to attend the event. The others aren't all masked in their photos, so I wonder what's under Batman's. He could have used a Bane-style mask, but that would probably have looked odd with the rest of the costume.
