Well hi there guys, recently I've been thinking in making a Spider Man costume for some charity events, and as a dude with not a whole lot of resources, I came to the conclusion that the suit was going to be done on a budget.
The design goes to the basics. Red and blue Lycra, Romita-esque eyes, fat little spider on the back and I'm in between the Ditko and Bagley Front Spider. And I'm not really sure if adding the armpit webbing. (BTW I'm sewing it all by hand, I don't really have a sewing machine so...)
For the suit: I bought some blue leggings (about $4,70), and 2.00 Meters ( about 7 feet) of red cotton Lycra which came again to around $4,70 ( I'm Mexican, so about $100 Mexican pesos)
For the eyes: Drew the shape on a DVD black box as well as cut them and will use either reflective lenses ir white mesh for the inner part.
For the webs: Just using a regular black pen and for pasting the lenses I bought some silicone glue which came about 2 bucks.
Another thing I'm interested in is in making a Muscle suit with maybe cotton and some old shirts, so maybe that will come in later. Anyways I'll be putting progress images for all people interested in making a Budget Cosplay. (I'm not really into the whole printing the suits technique).
Thanks for the attention guys
