OKay, So, I got rid of the red belt merging in with the man red part. It looks significantly better. Much more slim, but I still keep the belt everyone loves.
Here are some pictures from the con I went to. Everyone was amazed with it, and when they found out I totally made it myself, flipped out.
Same thing happened at school on halloween, but on a much larger scale. The principal personally talked to me about how I have a great future or whatever. xD
Heres what I learned from making this suit, which will definately help me with my next one:
1.) The paint is coming right off in some places, so I have a theory that hairdrying pffy paint instead of letting it soak into the fabric to dry makes it not so permanent. In other words, dont try to speed up the drying process of puffy paint.
2.) Gorilla Glue is ****ty at binding urethane to fabric.
3.) Dont use pen to fill in those gaps in between webs to get the amazing spiderman look. Next time, I will lay down frog tape everywhere (after testing it on different fabric of course) the webs will be.Then Ill Airbrush/spray paint with the tape on so I can do clean muscle shading on the red.
4.) Dont paint the costume while its stretched, kinda. Mainly just on the neck, because i did that with the mask and it was loosey goosey.
5.) Scotch Guard/use a water repellent spray on your costume, for sure.
6.) Use some defogging agent for your mask lenses. Like the ones used in motorcycle helmets.
Also, seeing the smile on childrens faces when they see me (spiderman) has got to be one of the best feelings I've ever had. I need to save this costume maybe, because my next one is going to be very, very scary.
And last but not least...
I appreciate everyones support.
Quick Question, How do I wash this thing?
