Thought I'd go ahead and start the new thread now that I've actually officially started the build.
Miles Morales' Spidey suit is as thus:
I have purchased a TaylorMcManus pattern and had it printed last week by Fabric on Demand. It is currently en route to my house right now and should be here by next Thursday (March 13th).
Here is a sample of the file (since I don't want to post anything too high-def in fear of having it copied or something):
I contacted El Fett and we had a talk about some detailing work with some puff paint to be done on the red webs, back and front spider, and the black lines of the hands.
I've worked out some details with an alternate seamstress, since TrophyWife is in the middle of moving and won't be accepting commission work for a while. The seamstress I've got lined up to sew my suit is very nice and is going to sew a pair of one of these shoes into the feet section for me (for a small charge as well, very reasonable):
I haven't decided which I want to use yet.
I'm very optimistic about this build, as well as it being my first "start to finish" suit.
I'm going to be modifying TJack's TASM2 combo (just the frames) and mold a thin layer of red something, (modelling clay, silicone putty, etc.) around the outside. Or maybe print out some red stickers (I have a sticker printer from my crafting days) in the dimensions of the frames? I'm totally open to suggestions on how to get those frames to be red...
Worst case scenario? I don't change the color of the frames, and just rock the TASM2 look on the Miles suit; which no doubt will still look really boss.
I'll post a picture of the print once I receive it next week. I'll be ordering whatever shoes I decide on next week as well (but I'm open to suggestions if you guys have a better idea of what to sew in to the bottoms).
I'll provide updates on the puffy paint detailing as well as the sewing.
I hope to have this suit done in about three to four months, but I'm on no real time table here, so I won't rush anything.
Also, there will not be a belt nor will there be any webshooters. So that will lower the build cost quite a bit (something I'm happy about).
Until my next post!
