Spiderman Web Backpack

Hi, I'm a new member, and a huge Spidey fan. I was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction to buy or make a Spiderman Web backpack. I've seen a few of these and I love the look. Any information / links would be greatly appreciated.

Hey I am also new to this and started making a web strand the other day then realised I can make a web backpack I will post a few pics here and there and make my own page about it.

Well I've seen two basic ones made one was a bowl covered with light colored cloth and the other was just a sac then both had webs glued onto the outside and a web strap. I know one of them used some kind of plastic for the webbing or you can go for the string covered in hot glue method then paint it white or grey or what ever. I hope this was at least slightly helpful.

Very helpful and I started out using hot glue but for all the detail it is taking a long time and I am trying to work out as a built in component for storage with a white button snap on that closes it

Wow, that's a nice web design. I'm going to try and post some of my webs up in the next few days. Its a boring to make but with good results imo.

thanks for the tips, guys. i'm still looking

I actually got my hands dirty and completed a fairly decent pack, I think. It's not as great as some of the others out there, but it should get me through halloween.

Could you provide a tutorial on how you completed your backpack project?

It was pretty simple, really.

1. Items - Floral wire, tulip paint, hot glue, cheese cloth, latex caulk, lighter fluid

2. I formed the web out of floral wire, then covered it in latex caulk that had been diluted with lighter fluid. When the caulk dried, the web was stable and could be shaped.

3. I glued parts of the cheese cloth together (I painted them gray for a contrast). At this point it looked like a giant rectangle.

4. Next I glued the floral web to the cheese cloth with hot glue.

5. Then a little trimming and I shaped the cloth into the bag and glued all the parts down.

Took a few days bc I needed things to dry.

I'm hitting up a local con this weekend and thought I'd give the spidey bag another try. Here's a really quick build, that I think came out ok:

Looks beautiful! Any construction details you can share?

thanks! it was actually a really, really easy build (took about 30 min). the shell is a white bowl that cost about $2. The webs are plastic lace (about 200 yards - total cost $8). I just kept wrapping, and i'm pretty satisfied. it holds my phone, keys, and wallet.

Nice! Source for the plastic lace?

i just bought it at a craft store. i'm sure you could find it pretty much anywhere. i'll try to get some pics up this weekend so we can see how it looks with the suit

Sweet backpack

The bag held up well at last weekend's con:

This may be a dumb question, but how did you get your stuff in and out of the bag?

The shell is a bowl. I tied off some of the plastic lace to form a "hole" at the top (which faces my back), so I put my phone, keys, wallet, etc.
