Hey Guys,
i just joined up at the RPF after being a long time viewer/admirer of the cool costumes and props i see here each day.
i decided to post my spiderman costume that i have pieced together in order to get some opinions and possibly advice on my
comic style spidey suit
a few things to note
- This cotume cost me no more than $65AUS
- I am in no way experienced at costume making or alterations
- i simply just am pro-active with ideas i have and like to be creative
ok, so for fun, i decided to see if i could make myself a cheap but decent spiderman costume (comic book style)
i ordered a zentai spiderman costume from ebay in a size Medium for $42AUS which ended up being a perfect fit..... the downfall however was that the suit had the
crappiest mask attached that i had ever seen:
As u can see, the mask was terrible... to note, there is also some minor flaws with the under arm connections of the blue and red patterns, but these i can live with for the price i paid
In order to improve the costume, i cut off the attached mask and stitched the neck area in order to secure the zip (which runs down the back). I then purchased a deluxe spiderman replica mask for $12.50AUS from Amazon.
i keep the mask seperate from the suit as it both looks good while im wearing it and can be removed in order to have a drink etc.
heres me wearing the spidey suit in its current form:
I would like to attach some souls to the feet, as i have a costume party coming up..... any suggestions and directions on how to apply them??
let me know what u guys think.....
cheers guys
