Hey guys, the name's Jerick! I'm new to the Replica Prop Forum. I've seen some quite amazing builds and prints. The costumes are amazing and the process is really cool. I want to start with a small project. I've seen mr. MCL3AN's Replica Amazing Spider-Man Suit. It's really cool and want to start with just the mask. I've made things before, but I've never sewn anything. I once made a Halo helmet with cardboard and tape. Then I added resin to add details. Used a motorcycle visor for the Halo helmet's visor. Tweaked it with lights. Anyway if any one can help me with this Spider-Man mask project of mine. It will truely be appreciated.

Made some renders. Had no time to start:facepalm, but I did gather some materials.

I got 2 meters of lycra. 1M Red and 1M White
Mesh for the lenses

been spending most of my time researching, rendering and scaling.
I've scaled the lenses, but I have yet to scale the mask it self. It's not hard; it's not easy either. It's quite challenging, since I'm a beginner.

I'll update as soon as I can! :cool

The second image looks good. The first image does not look symmetrical in shape, size, or positioning though.

Oh I was just looking at which one I should use. Which one looks better?

I personally like the design on the right, its much sleeker. BUT the one of the left strikes me much more as a spidey comic book style lens soooo :confused

I was thinking the same.
I have to cast these now, but only thing is I don't know how.

This build will be put on hold. Time and money is what I'm worried about so I'll be doing others builds.

Check my Mortal Kombat Builds for now.
