Re: Amazing Spiderman Zentai Suit - Raimi Suit Added!

Rev0uk where in uk are you from I am also from the uk newcastle just incase you know of any good places for products and such

im in the north east area of yorkshire. But i dont really buy anything locally i just order anythign im using online, usually get's here fine. Waiting on my suit at the moment (same one as spideyfan)

Re: Amazing Spiderman Zentai Suit - Raimi Suit Added!

That's exactly what I did, which is fine since the new suit has those parts left on as well. Here's a pic of my soles with the fabric cut off and the rim painted red (it was orange):

yeah tahts near enough exactly what i intend to do as far as cutting them out goes. Does your foot still fit fine? i doubt removing the extra material would of had that much of an effect anyway.

Im just trying to find a pair of aqua shoes that actually have the toe overlap like the one syou found, quite a few are shaped differently.

Yeah my foot still fits fine. I little extra room (maybe a half inch longer than my foot. I'm currently working on gluing them in. Been standing in them for a while, don't want to take my feet out too soon. I did the bottom and the front first, when that is dry, I will glue the heel/back and stand in them again. Hopefully this works well and holds. I'd hate to wreck the feet by having it not work!

yeah im sort of using what you do to gage whether it will work or not..

its a method ive read in a few places though. When you say you did the front / bottom first, do you mean just the front half of the sole? so you didnt glue the back / heel at the same time? any reason why? anddddhow about the toe area where it comes up / the rim, obviously your foot isn't exactly the same shape as that, did you have to push those areas in by hand or are you going to try do that after wards

Because my foot does not take up all the space in the sole, so I didn't want to glue the whole thing if I wasn't sure if the pressure would be even and on all parts where the glue is supposed to connect. So I glue the toe area and the whole bottom of the soles, make sure the feet of the suit are well adhered there, then glue the back and focus on connecting it there.

I might try sewing around the top edge just to give it some extra strength.

how did you get the entire toe area to sit up against the bit where it overlaps (if that makes sense?

for some reason i was thining it would of been best to go with the heel first, as naturally your foot would be back up against the heel. But if its working then good job! Another thought i had was if there was a bit to much space....wearing a few pairs of socks would sort that out

Which one? The Raimi suit or the Amazing Spiderman suit? Look on ebay, there are a ton of the black raimi suits, but I doubt you'll find any black ASM suits.

I just pushed my toes as far forward as I could, it worked for the most part, will need to add some glue around the top edge though; I'll probably sew it too to make sure it stays. Yeah, you could do the back first too, I think either would work.

i can't sew..at all >.< but hoping the glue will hold it. Still looking for aqua shoes that look like id be able to leave some of the toe/heel in place. Closest ive found so far are these 3, but the heel/toe area all appears to be just fabric rather than the rubber...not sure if that will matter. If you see what i mean

No, I didn't do that option. You can choose to do it though, I just wouldn't want the zipper to be visible, would look pretty weird.

looks a whole lot more weird trying to strip down just so you can pee, speaking from experience >.<

Yeah, but I think people would give you a pass for the occasion lol. I'll try posting some pictures of the shoes pretty soon. Didn't get to work on them at all last night.

sounds good! i actually went with the croch zipper option, so will see how it looks/bound to get some pics up at some point. Ive been out on a night as a green lantern before and had to strip down to pee everytime and the hasle of getting someone to help me zip up the back again....just got a bit annoying, hence trying the crotch zipper option this time.

do you reckon any of the aqua shoes i linked above would be alright? goign to order a pair either tonight or tomorrow

I think any aqua shoe would do. It all comes down to the look/style you prefer in the end. I wanted my to have a thin sole and to have the heel and toe parts.

Re: Amazing Spiderman Zentai Suit - Raimi Suit Added!

im also trying to work out what the best option would be for carrying my wallet/phone etc as i am going to need them with me.....and won't just be able to leave them lying around all the time. Currently im thinking (what we'd call in the uk) a bum bag, might be known as a fanny pack in the states? not really sure. I know its going to look a bit out of place but it atleast gives easy access/can be relatively small

Web back pack? Wouldn't be too hard to whip something similar to this up.
