So for this years Fan Expo I had decided I wanted to be The Amazing Spider-Man 2.0.
(sewn by the lovely Trophywife)
But the internet just exploded with suits and I thought "How am I going to stand out in a sea of Spidermen?"
Bought both the patterns off Orhadar, one in Feb the other April or late March and as beautiful as it is, I wasn't satisfied with simply sending it to FOD.
I made a honeycomb pattern and darkened the colours a bit.
Original
going for more of a modern movie style
Submitted version.
It should be here by tomorrow.
While I waited I decided to tackle both a backpack and wrist communicators
The inconsistency of these reference photos made me decide to make it however I wanted as long as it made sense.
So after reading someones (will edit name in after) winter soldier arm thread I decided to plaster cast my arms
I've been following a lot of female cosplayers who work with worbla, watching different techniques and bought a sheet to try it out.
I don't have pictures of the process, but I wrapped my arm in plastic wrap and mapped out the shape of the comm
Will edit in videos I watched. The worbla is heated with the edges folded around the foam
As far as the backpack goes, I took some insulation foam and made a shape for vacuum forming
If anyone else is working on this and you want to compare notes, I'm all for it.
Coming soon! I see how I'd like to attach the backpack to the suit, using hidden buckles and straps but I'm not sure how to execute it.
And web shooters! I even made those.
Rather than making it some bulky thing around my wrist, poking through the suit...
Also made out of worbla. This is a before they became symmetrical shot.
So this is all for now. I'll update it later.
