Spiderman Costume?

[JWMines]

Hey,

I've decided for my next costume I would love to do a Spidey suit. I have in mind the TASM2 suit or the original Toby Maguire Spiderman suit.

I have read over some build threads and such. I have come to the conclusion that first you need to get a design and then get it printed on lycra or spandex? Then after that get it sewn together by a seamstress (I have no sewing ability). After that, purchase lenses and fit them to the mask? Also buy shoes to put in the feet of the suit. Then I've read that people have highlighted the web lines and such but I have no idea what that means.

So I'm basically rather confused on the steps to put together a Spidey costume. Also a budget? As I'm in my teens I'd love to have a lower budget but still have accuracy and have a great looking costume. Another thing that has came to my attention is the website Zentai-Zentai. Are they any good?

Hopefully someone can help me out and point me in the direction of a few helpful links

Thanks,
Jake.

Print it on fabric on demand. It will cost you over 100$ for the print.
so I made my own costume out of plain red and blue poly/spandex.

Average spandex print will go for $120-$145. Seamstress $200-$300. Lenses $15-25. Faceshell $50-$100 or more. Webbing is the cost of the puff paint or hundreds of dollars if you pay someone to do it for you. Shoes $20-$90.

Thanks, that puts it into perspective for me

Best person to use is trophywife, although I think she's not doing any at the moment she's busy with family stuff I think
