Hey guys, been working on a Spidey costume... just need a few opinions. Obviously, it's not full complete yet... but just after some feedback.

1. What do you guys think of the color? Obviously, it'll never be the same when printed, but do you think it's heading in the right direction? I'm going for a comic style spidey.

2. Are the webs to thick? Too many? What do you think?

3. Is the belt to low down?

4. Any other problems or things I should change?

THANKS!

The webs are too thick for my liking, if you are going to go over it with puff paint, but if it's left alone it's good. The seam allowance would look better if it would have the associate colors inside the seam allowance. Even without those suggested changes it still looks top notch pro, great work!
 
Thanks for the feedback! I will extend the colors into the seam allowance, and re-do the webs! I'm not going to puff paint them, as good as it looks for TASM, I think it'll look a bit strange on a comic style suit. Originally, I was going to go with a Raimi, comic, TASM hybrid, which is why the webs are Raimi-style. However, I've decided to go straight-up comic style, so will most likely make the webs more subtle.

Does the belt need moving up?
 
Comparing it to my template the belt needs to be up a bit, if you want I can send a preview pic of my template to give you an idea.
 
I'm actually a big fan of the thicker webs. I think they look pretty good. It's up to you of course. If you feel like they're too thick and want to tone them down, do whatever's comfortable
 
Hmm, I could go with Kirby/Ditko style... not many out there... I like vibrant colors I have at the moment though, and not sure how I'd do the webs under the arm pits. I do like the thicker webs, especially as far as the films go... I just think for a comic style subtle webs might work better.
 
I can see that too,what you might consider is mixing the two and having your own original idea
 
Just don't repost the picture of my template, without crediting me, if you do. I edited the picture to have the watermark of my name, so if you really wanna repost my picture repost the updated one on here.

No problem New blood. Just used it for the height of the belt, I wont be re-posting it. Thanks again.
 
I still haven't decided on what style I want to go with yet... I'm thinking either Romita Sr. Romita Jr. Or Edge of time... I've decided I'm going to do them all, and then decide which one I like best. Here's what I've got so far for Romita Sr.
