Started to puff paint the mask, I think this is the main part of the costume- your face
BTW I had those small holes and I didn't see with them, so I cut them and glued to the faceshell

It's alright. It's a small mistake on a suit that looks spectacular. Good luck today!

I bought latex to make a spider The most difficult part of the costume (
Here is my first spider, but it is terrible Will try more...latex is very hard material to mold it....Mb someone worked already with this material and can give me some tips?

I think the second spider much better, but the color...it suppose to be grey. I made grey latex, but now it's white and the edges are very ugly:lol Who knows how to make a "perfect" front spider? I also thought about foam spider- this is very cheap variation, but not the best(

When I tried to cover the seams, it was a bad idea:facepalm
But I found a solution- draw along the seam

You could always brush the spider with a thin coat of darker, somewhat watered-down acrylic paint. Not too much paint, though, or the surface won't be as smooth and some "wrinkling" would occur in areas that bend.

I decided, to puff paint the spider, because I wasted too much money for the silicon and for the latex without results...what do u think about puff painted spider? Let me know in comments below Also I created the molding form for the web triggers (I'm thinking about finger pads, but I don't like them).
Today I'll try to print it.

It looks like you were trying to print the bottom on air. That generally doesn't work.
Split along Z axis and print in two parts (one of them upside down), so you get a flat surface on the build plate. Use superglue to glue the two parts together. That's assuming your model doesn't have a flat bottom that touches the buildplate (hard to see - it's close). If it does have a large flat bottom, then you need to make sure your printer is extruding properly and that your print settings are OK. Print a 50% scale model first to get the settings about right and when it looks OK, commit to printing one or two full size items. Scale models waste less time and plastic on prints that go wrong, although sometimes scaling down a model will cause it to fail (details get too small).
