Joe's pouches look awesome, definitely check them out. If I had seem them before I made my own, I really would have considered buying me some of those as well.
 
Thanks man! I don't think I'm going to use a face shell actually, I'm pretty satisfied with the shape of my face in the mask. I did however put in 2 pieces of plastic behind the white of the eyes, but those aren't as massive as a shell and therefore make it easier to take off the mask to put inside the hoodie. A shell would mean I can't really put it on or take it off on the fly and conceal it.

And about those web shooters; I'm curious myself, my previous idea with the doorhandles didn't really work out so now I'm looking around for some wooden dowels or something else which would be suitable.
 
Also, for anybody with any advice regarding underwear, feel free to share it with me.
I've been stuffing a shoulder pad in a tight boxer short, but I can still see the edge of my boxer short through the suit and it really bugs me.
I guess it's visible because the suit is a plain color without print. I've seen some people use a dancing belt but that looks about as comfortable as a thong.
It's basically a thong if you look at it.

I measured my pouches, I made them with these dimensions;
13 cm height
7,5 cm width
3 cm dept

If I happen to find my template, I'll upload that as well to make it easier for you to replicate them.

Didn't find it, but quickly made another for you, here you go dude, hope it helps you out.

It's been a while! School keeps me busy I guess. But today I finished a web shooter!

This is looking really great. I love how you handled the eyes and the accessories. Keep up the good work, man.
 
I'm going to try to finish the second web shooter today! And since I hadn't really explained how I did the first one, if anyone's interested in that process, I'll show you with the picture's of the second one I'm making now.

I suddenly came upon some cheap wooden knitting kneedles, and thought they would be great for making web shooters. So I bought a bunch of them and once I got home I cut them up into pieces of 10cm each. Then I drilled holes in them and sanded down the edges. After spray painting them silver I just took a rubber band to put through the holes and voila!

Second web shooter is finished!

The wooden parts don't line up perfectly, but it's hardly noticeable when I'm wearing them, so it doesn't bother me.
Also,the lighting here makes the texture look weird for some reason, but it's actually really smooth.

All that's left to do now is the thing I have been avoiding for so long; the shoes. I just ordered a pair of kung-fu slippers from amazon, they should be delivered next week.

Hey Spidertwan,

I was just wondering how you stitched the eyes/was it hard to do?
I want to do a similar look on mine, I really like how yours turned out

The stitching itself wasn't that hard, but it does require a lot of patience when preparing the mask. I drew and cut out the shapes out of thin cardboard, put them on my face while wearing the mask and traced them with a pen. Then I cut out the shapes I traced along the lines. It's kind of nerve wrecking because if you make a mistake, it's permanent, and you can't really see what you're doing if you rush it, so take it slow. When you have the holes in the mask, take it off and put some cardboard in it to keep it flat, and not stretched. I bought a white zentai mask, cut out pieces of fabric larger than the holes, pinned them to the inside of the mask and then stitched the two together along the line of the cut. The important part here is that neither of your fabrics are stretched, but aren't flapping around either. It should just be flat. I had a lot of excess fabric on the inside, but just cut that afterward, I just wanted to play safe. Maybe there is a better way of doing it,just having someone with you to help would actually make a huge difference, but that's how I did it. If you attempt to do it this way I hope it works out! Good luck!
