Set onto the back piece just to see, and oh man.... So awesome.

 

[Wearenotlinear]

Still not glued together, but painted.. and I designed a "power core" for the back spider too..

"Power core" all lit up.

Subscribed. I don't know why I didn't sub sooner. This is an amazing build.

 

[SpideyQueue]

Absolutely incredible build so far!!!!!!!!! Really looking forward to the finished product

 

[Wearenotlinear]

Thanks! I'm hoping to be done within the next few weeks.

Some notes on the power core, in case someone wants a similar look... The top piece is a gatorade cap painted black with holes drilled in the top and sides. There's one LED back lighting it, then a black wire braided through the side holes and the cardboard base. Then I bundles some random wires and ran it from the cap to the next piece.. the bottom piece is made of foam pieces I cut and painted and the light inside it is two leds facing each other in a small plastic tube.

Now I'm working on the eyes. I don't recall if I mentioned this, but i used the eyes I had made before on my other spidey costume for Halloween. But its for the best. I'm going to light the eyes, so I have to start from scratch on them.. here's the progress and design so far:

 

[Wearenotlinear]

Glued the back spider together today. It's still not connected to the back.. waiting to do the red coat before I do that.

 

[Wearenotlinear]

It would be so much easier to light these eyes if they were tiny like iron man eyes..
Bit they're massive lol.. so I've been running some tests. Here is where I'm at:


I lined the side of the eye with led lights then dug a channel between them Into the foam and covered that with hot glue to create a sort of light tube deal.. there's still a dark spot since the eyes are curved, so I'll do the same thing in the top brow piece of the eye

Just checking things out...

As an obvious IM fan, I sincerely approve of the chest light

Also, the detail on the spider is AMAZING. Well done yet again.

I believe the light is on the back not the chest

Ah yes I see that now, I was quite tired last night as I looks through all the new pics. Sorry!

Still looks cool

 

[Wearenotlinear]

Designed a new spider for the chest, based on the back Spider design

If anyone digs it enough to use it, feel free

You're both right... Lights on back and front. The back light is way cooler as of now, but I'm working on that... Soon the chest light will be awesome too (fingers crossed)
