Hello everybody,
Back when the Amazing Spiderman 2 came out, I got a little taste of what it was like to dress as spidey with a cheap handmade mask and an airbrushed shirt, and I loved it. So I decided to bring it up a notch and go to Comic Con in the full suit.
I was originally planning on attempting to make the suit from scratch, but due to a lack of time, I decided to just send ken's pattern (without the front and back spiders) to a zentai site (whether its Zentai-Zentai or ZentaiZone is yet to be determined EDIT: Going with ZentaiZone), then I'll puff paint it and attach silicone spiders to the front and back.
Now, when I first saw the movie, I LOVED the costume. It was my favorite part of the movie, I would even say the costume was better than the script; but there were a few things I didn't like that I wanted to change for this costume build:
1. The front spider. I don't understand why the spider has to stretch down the entire torso. So I made a crappy photoshop rendering of what I'm shooting for in terms of spider-design.
smaller legs on the spider, and moved up the suit a little bit.
2. The other thing I want to change is the spider on the back. I know it looks like a tick, but I miss that round, fat spider from the comics
pardon the poor photoshoping
3. I may or may not change the lenses to have a larger frame.
I will also be making my own face shell, lenses, and I'm going to try and make a web shooter that shoots some sort of silly string or just string using air pressure, or I might just make a coil gun to launch a metal projectile that's attached to string.
I'll be posting here when I make any progress, and as I go along any advice you have would be appreciated.
I can barely wait to get started on this thing
