And here's part 2 of how to make a Flash costume, based on the CW's version of the Flash costume. I altered the lightning bolts on the belt a bit, adding a gold paper fastener to each one to hold it in place. And I also added paper fasteners to hold the different sections of the belt together as I couldn't find a glue that would hold them onto the vinyl (or at least, I couldn't find a glue that didn't require a hazmat suit...) The pants I simplified a lot just to make them easier.
