I am making a Superior Spider-Man costume for London MCM Comic Con in October. I'll post all progress and questions in here.

Bare-bones:

You could get TJack lenses for the eyes

I'll go have a look, thanks!

More questions, how are people attaching eyes to costumes?

I just used hot glue for mine, but I've seen people use crazy glue too. You have to make sure the lenses are are formed to your face shape first or they will look weird.

You can also attach magnets to the frames when using a faceshell. This is what I do with my suits.

Sorry for the inactivity, but I've finally received the fabric and can get started!

If I was to use magnets for the eyes, would it mean getting hold of some tiny magnets and cutting holes for them in the frames?

Iron Joe does a pretty good tutorial bout the magnet mods for the eye lenses. He uses a 1/4" drill and drills a recess into the frames.

Sorry for letting the thread die but progress has ground to a halt and it's getting pretty close the the event. Most of the sewing's pretty obvious but I'm stumped on a couple of bits. Does anyone have any sort of guide?

 

[Nyu]

There's a few bits in the pattern that don't seem to make any sense at all when looking at the actual costume..
