    Limited Run Frontier Costuming - Last chance dye-sub prints at low price!

    Is it possible to get the MOS print without the hard details.....ie the belt, hips wrist \s/ ? Basically the blue, chain mail pattern, and muscle shading. Thanks

    Alternatives to Fabric on Demand for Dye Sub Printing?

    I've been hearing a lot of friends mention lately that FOD screwed up their prints, but I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt since everything I have had printed has been fine. This last time however they screwed up my print and won't back up their product. Does anyone know of...

    Spiderman web shooter: A collaborative project.

    Here's my current progress...been collecting the parts for a bit but just started on them yesterday as a break from puff painting like a mad man! The last one is a screen shot that I took in order to match up the watch parts. I'm confidant I got all the pieces right except for the "arm" type...

    Amazing Spiderman Putting together your Suit

    This may be a question best suited for Nick.....is it possible to do a zipper that starts at the belt and goes straight up the spine to the top/back of the head? My thought is to have the same benefit of the drop hood but also use it to get into the suit as well. This also would help to...

    Thanks...that's the exact same area that takes the most wear and tear on my Rami suit as well.

    Amazing Spiderman Putting together your Suit

    Now that I have all of my materials together and am ready to get started, I do have a few questions. 1. Is it better to paint before or after it is sewn? I understand that it's easier to paint if it's not sewn, but that you also don't have to worry about stretching the fabric if it's sewn...

    Amazing Spiderman Putting together your Suit

    The trick I use I learned from a competitive swimmer because he used it for the inside of his swimming goggles. 1. Wipe a light coat of baby shampoo on the inside and let it dry. It's best if you put it on when you are putting the costume away after you are done wearing it for the next...

    Spiderman web shooter: A collaborative project.

    I'll have to hold off....Shapeways shorted me a shooter face. :cry Now to figure out if they gave me the left face or the right....should the green fluid indicators be on the right or the left of the shooter? Looks to me like in previous pics it goes on the pinky side of the hand. ...If...

    Costume Contest Rules Discussion Thread - FINAL SUGGESTIONS IN POST 65

    Re: Costume Contest Rules Discussion Thread Are you speaking solely of the winners? I was in the male contest and I've been a member since someone told me about it at Dragon Con 2 years ago and I had to wait for an open registration period to become one. And I also think that those...

    Gears of War 3/Judgement -- Onyx Guard Build

    Thanks! Thought I'd offer this on here as a free prop, so long as you do not profit from it and the TONKA 1675 logo stays on it. Here is a pdf I made in photoshop of all of the logos needed to go back on your Lancer if you choose to repaint it. They are already scaled to the correct size...

    The RPF 2012 Halloween Costume Contest - WINNERS ANNOUNCED

    And that is a valid point, just keep in mind that this is the point of the contest from your point of view as a contestant/voter, but from the point of view of the people who offered the contest (and also footed the bill for the generous prizes) that they may also be looking for a return on...

    The RPF 2012 Halloween Costume Contest - WINNERS ANNOUNCED

    Wow, thanks so much! I kept telling my wife through the whole competition that I couldn't be upset if I lost to Hulk or Bumblebee since they were both such awesome costumes. I'd love to get pics in my spidey with you! My .02..... As far as "fake votes" are concerned, I think it's...
