Undefeated [Damian Wayne]

Swing left, swing right
Bruised and black-eyed, half alive
Bleeding, choking 
Bent not broken inside

And in this world of compromise
I hit every curb, every red light
Trying to keep both hands on the wheel

Weak knees, can’t stand
Raise up your hands
Don’t walk away
Been sucker punched but I’m not down
My feet have never left the ground
It’s a fight that I can fix
Like a cut that needs a stitch
And somehow through it all I stand

Still undefeated
With my back against the ropes
Still undefeated
You can knock me down with body blows
But you cannot break my hope

The expo came way faster than I thought it would this year and only managed to produce one new costume. However, it was an excellent opportunity to bring out an old favourite... with a twist! I constructed Damian last year for the expo and I had a ton of fun wearing him around. I'm very proud of this costume because it was my first time woking without a pattern. 
And this year, it was my first time attempting bruise make up, which I believe turned out extraordinary! 

Now let me talk about this picture. As always, I want to say how much I love working with SeyeCO Images. He's such a fantastic individual and he always has such unique and artistic inspirations. The twist on this years Damian was purely his idea! I'm absolutely in love with this picture, it think it captures a lot of the darkness within Damian as well as his sense of duty.
