Making the perfect Spidey suit

[webslinger922]

that is one swet looking suit, My hat goes off to Spiderham for another excellent creation!!!!

[<Mr.Spider>]

Good day..er ...or night...anyway I'm new to these forums,but I have read this thread since the last page was 104.I have a manga style spiderman costume I made for jacon and am hoping to get photos up soon.great suit imurme

[SpidEMC]

Another great job by Spider-Ham. Enjoy the suit Blaze and I hope to see you at the next Dragon Con.

Sorry that I have not posted in a while, I have been so busy with my own project, but I think all of you will understand in the end. My posts for Knight Seeker kind of takes away from this forum, and I hope to have my own board someday. Until then all the best of luck to you Spidey guys. This Spider is on a different path from the rest.

Unfortunately I won't be at DC this year. My bosses say "nobody" gets vacation time at that time of the year. Thanks for the good comments on the suit too. Once I got it I wished I hadn't had to wait so long to do so.

[Drkepoch]

Awesome suit Blaze! Great job Spider-ham. Your suits turn out so awesome :)

[Spider Tim 7]

Spider-Ham... you had us at Hello, you had us at Hello.

Looks great Tim. Thanks for working your magic.

My spider-senses were tingling with that pic

[spiderfan09]

I finally got my new suit, it fits almost perfectly. (just a little too big in the height department, but otherwise, it rocks.)

[blaze269]

Lets see some pics there SF.. Also look I finally got this pic posting thing figured out. D'oh!http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/Blaze269/Misc_Pics_082.jpg

Hi, I'm new here, but I lurk all the time. I'm having a movie accurate suit made soon. My question is about the lense... Is the Clear Vinyl you guys use slightly blur or is it as clear as glass ? Oh yes, what exactly is white mesh ? Is it some sort of netting or a fabric with a loose weave ? I'm currently using my custom grinded and heat shaped acrylic lense with chrome tint and foam lense holders. I remember someone selling casts of the screen used lense holders. Oh yeah... Kudo's to Spider Tim 7, SpiderJack, Bob Cassey and Ben Yetter ! You guys are totally awesome !!! Spider-Ham too for that matter ! I am wondering what blue did they use in them movie suit ? I am currently debating on Navy, Royal Blue or Perri ( Matches Spidey 2 to me )

Thanks, Xeno

[spolen23]

Wow, great suit! Just a word of advice..you spent soo much time on it, take some good pics, use good lighting, don't your messy bedroom as a background. At least go outside! LOL The suit is awsome. Are those the webs from the mold? Is that Bobby C's suit?

Those were taken inside due to the weather outside at the time and the ONLY reason it's not straight in there is I had been building props and hadn't had the chance to clean yet. Otherwise it would have been outside.

[Spider Tim 7]

I pulled this guy over yesterday and he jumped out of the car and angrily yelled, "why you got to be all up in my grill dog?" LOL

I was like, "what?"

Anyway, he had a really cool Spiderman shirt on and it actually got us talking and we parted happily. LOL

It was funny. Spiderman minimizing conflict in the world. LOL

[Spidey Swing]

Hey there,

I'm interested in making my own spidey suit, too. However, I really want to go for Ultimate Spider-Man as opposed to the Movie version. Has anyone else tried that version of the suit, and, if so, are their pictures of it? I'm curious to see how other's turned out.

Thanks.

Hi, could someone help me with my earlier question ? Here's my Q.

Please help, and thanks.

[spolen23]

Blaze, did you hand apply your webs? or are they from molds also?? They look great!

[spolen23]

Oh. Well, whomever made the suit, were the webs hand drawn or casted from molds? They look great!!

[SpiderManYetter]

From what I understand, he has a pattern he uses for the webs. If I remeber right he uses Tulip flex paint for the webbing. Stuff rocks!

[real-spiderman]

Hey Tim,

I was reading through your site last night, and was curious what under armor is? I'd never heard of it. If it keeps ya cool in summer,and warm in winter I'm very interested in finding out.lol.

Also, cool idea on the bra cup. Anything has to be more comfortable than a dancers belt :))

Heh. Thanks... I had a great birthday weekend down here... yet, having a suit like Wams´s would be the bomb. I am asking spider-mex if he can cook something like Wams´s but ... with my size. I´m 6´6" tall....

The positive side of that, is that Wams inspired me to get back to the gym as soon as I recovered from the nasty infection I had in my right leg. And results, so far, have been really positive.

[Spider Tim 7]

This is a nice material to wear under clothing for comfort against heat or cold. It is NOT a muscle suit.

Atheletes wear them as do other professions like law enforcement. I even wear my under armor under my uniform at work (sheriff).

It is great stuff - and is nice to wear under the spidey suit as well.

You can get it at pretty much any sports store..

Sorry for the lapse guys. Been WAAYY to busy with life. Here's a couple of shots of the mask and front now that the webbing's complete. I dont want to post any body shots because I want someone else to have that honor that's been extremely patient through this whole process.

[SpiderManYetter]

Damn those pics are HUGE! Sorry about that. New camera and haven't got it dialed in yet. So much for hiding the mistakes....

[Socrates]

Ben, that is one ******' awesome suit bro. Keep up the good work.:D

[EvH347]

Wow! That is a real knockout Yetter.
Off the charts, totally awesome!

[dieanotherday]

awsome man

[Xeno]

Totally Awesome Yetter ! I'm wondering what did you use for -

Eye Lense ?
Eye Frames ?
Chest Spider ?
Eye Lense tint ? ( I can see the red fabric beneath it )
Webbings ? ( are those Bob Cassey's ? )

PS : spider-hunter, I'm 12, birthday long and I'm currently 5'4"

[jayr727]

Hey, this has probably been asked before, but how much would a spidey mask cost? And I mean a really good one like in the movie?

[Orcinus]

BTW I started a Community in orkut called "Superhero Costumes", everyone is welcome to join =)

And thanks to SpidEMC for the great chat we're having tonite.

[Drkepoch]

Awesome job Yetter! That suit looks awesome 8)

[blaze269]

Great looking pics there Yetter! Can't wait to see full length shots.

For those asking about my suit, Yes full credit has to go to SpiderHam. He did me very proud on this! Almost to the point that I'm afraid to put it on for not wanting to damage such a work of art. Next stop................One of Tim's suits.

[Spider Tim 7]

Awesome bro!!!

Very nice work, love the molds. The eye trim looks sweet.

:spidey:

[SpidEMC]

You know your suit, its the bomb. I rarely will post here because I am so involved in my own work for my characters.

Hope to see some pics of you guys at the movie on opening night. I will be with friends in NYC on opening night, and yes I will be in full suit. This may be the last year I will be doing any spidey wearing, I am just becoming more obsessed with my own character. The short film is done and now being editted. I have already seen some of the footage. Did you guys think that Batman: Dead End was a work of art? I sure as heck say it is, but they had a really good budget. As for mine well no big budget, but quality shooting and quality actors.

Yetter I cant wait to see the suit on you, I know you will make it movie quality in appearance, or even surpass the movie quality. Much thanks to Bobby C for putting the materials together.

[SpiderManYetter]

Thanks guys! If you guys ever need some sort of therapy to work the kinks out of your life, don't try web gluing it'll drive ya batty!! To answer some of the questions:

-All the webbing, lens frames and chest spider were sculpted and molded by Bobby C. They are different forms of polyurethane that make up the softness / hardness of the material.

@ EMC: Cant wait to see that movie bro! I still watch the BatMan Dead End once in awhile, looking forward to seeing your character in action.

[twopinacoladas]

looks great, love the webs;)

[Robin31684]

I just got my first Spidey costume (i've been following the board since it started, though) and i plan on doing birthday parties and stuff like that with it. I currently do parties as Elmo, Barney, Winnie the Pooh and characters like that. They are easy... just play music and dance around for 45 minutes. But what do i do with the Spidey Parties??? anyone do parties or corporate events with their costume besides pose and take pictures? lemme know what you guys do. thanks a lot!

[IAMSPIDERMAN]

Let me just say it as been a long and treacherous jouney,which as nearly taken 8 months to complete,(well i guess they say the best things come to those that wait)and GEEEZ i'v waited!
But i'm please to say my new suit was sent out today via FED EX so i can expect it's arrival friday(fingers crossed).
So just to let u guys know when i feel confident enough to put the suit on i'll be sure to take plenty of pics......I just got to say this as been a long time cooking,and i'm really looking forward to seeing this in the flesh,it's incredible i actually feel pretty nervous for it's arrival........weird????
:confused: .

@blaze the suit looks awesome buddy,and i love what tim as done for u with his magic!!

jason

[Bob C]

Great job Ben! , but in all honesty I have to say 8 months of waiting for something like this is really nothing . especially for the price . . and the qaulity of the changes that were made during the 8 months. what I mean is Ben never lets something sit he is always working on it . and has the thing called family (very time consuming) and a 9to5 , Jason you are on your way too finding that out . (ha ha) No seriously . Your going to love it . he made me a pair of Nightcrawler pants that are dead on acurate . he should change occupations.
not to mention Ben always gives extras for time lost.

Spider-Tim : Great chatting with you earlier today.

Robin31684: Hey dude send some pics to this board of the suit you have, I would like to see the craftsmenship. It seems that everyone has a different look from other designers, I would like to see what yours looks like.

this was not a dig at the time lapsed on the suit bobby buddy,i just want people to realise whats has gone into the suit the research,the sweat and the tears,and occasional hair pulling!(lol)
your right on the kind gestures of ben's good heart,luckily for me he as thrown a little something extra my way for my patiance but just to get the suit is enough for me,so for the non-believers out there i have a few more pounds to lose,then u can see what kinda dedication these guys have!
(believe me your not going to get much closer)
so stay tuned guys!

ben and bob my hats off to u kind sirs!

[Bob C]

Jason Please send alot of pics, also If Mike is working on the shell let me know , but I think I will have a original in the next couple days, but I am not sure if it will fit your head.
it is the spiderman 2 complete face shell . One of my friends finagled one from the molds .

[d00r]

hi im not new to the board i moslty just read posts. but i had questions this time. where can i get a jump suite? and where do i get a mask to attatch it to? i was reading about how to make the eyes and the webbing. anyone know what special paint they used to make the webbing?

[Xeno]

I believe most of us here use 3D fabric paint by Tulip. I am using Plaid's 3D paint, would that work ? They only sell Tulip's in glitter here in Singapore.

I can send you a copy if it fits we can talk about the price then , wont be much. Ok with you?

[WebHead21]

Did any one else go through those pictures from the premiere of sm2 and see that amazing alex ross costume, it was one of the high res ones it was beautiful, has any one ever made one before?

[SpiderJack]

Spider-hunter,

You first need to have an "online" photo hosting site. Try http://photobucket.com/ it's free. What you do is create an account then upload you're pictures to that site. Then just paste the tag line into your messages here or on most other forums and you're pics will magically appear. Once you get your pics uploaded to photobucket and you still need help putting them here let me know and I'll help.

[SpiderJack]

BTW, I got one more arm to go and my new suit will be done. Hope to get the pics up here before the premire. LOL

[IAMSPIDERMAN]

@ bobby....sounds great.
U have mail man!!!!

[SpiderJack]

Spider-hunter,

I think it just looks to be silver from the photo. I bet that the material that it's made out of is a bit reflective and so that it looks more metalic like. But if you look at it in the movie you can tell that it's black.

[blaze269]

Yep still black

[WebHead21]

yeah that suit was cool but the movie one that the other guy was wearing was my fave

Yea that one was awesome, but man I cant wait till I get the money to get one of these guys to make one for me...one day soon hopefully

[Xeno]

I believe the correct color on the Spidey 2 lenses are gun metal as well as the chest spider. You can see it clearly in the pics of the Movie costume at www.spider-costumes.de Spider Hunter, your lense and chest spider are awesome !!! Care to share on how they were made ? Thanks

[blaze269]

The spider and lenses are black. The variances in color are due to lighting in the different pics that are out there. Notice the webbing. In some instances it looks silvery and some it looks black. Just as mine on my new suit does.

[Xeno]

Well, that's why I mentioned the color as to gun metal. Gun Metal appears black in dark lighting and it appears silver in bright lighting and gun metal in most shots seen, that I believe is the color Larry Mallot ( Spider-Ham ) used.

[WebHead21]

Well hopefully it might leak on the web, what was on the video ne way?

[Xeno]

Originally posted by spider-hunter
the reason that the lens frames on the movie costume in the gallery at the spider-costumes site are black in some pics is because there is both of the movie costumes in that gallery,the spiderman 2 one has silver frames and the first spiderman movie suit has black frames

I am aware of that as the Spidey 1 suit has a smaller spider on the chest. Take a look at this pic and the one posted by spider-hunter. Both are Spidey 2 suits. PS : Metallic Grey IS Gun Metal. Take a look.
http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v297/XenoVikatoi/2161e35a.jpg

[blaze269]

Neither is the chest spider in that shot. So are we to beleive that there is really no black used on the SM 2 suit? If anyone has seen any of the DVD extras you will remember that the color WAS NOT changed on the eyes and spider. Just the size! if not, then go and watch the thing and see. But as you say..........The spider in that pic isn't black either so maybe we are all being lied to in the DVD.

Spider-hunter, All the lense frames are black. The one in the second movie just looked that way because of the sun hitting it.;)

[Xeno]

spider-man 2 movie suit=silver lens frames and black front spider.
Well, I'd have to disagree, look at the pic you posted and the one in my pic. Both are in the same proper lighting. Spiderfan09, yes, I have to agree with you in my pic as the sun is glaring on it, that's why the eye frames and chest spider look silver and in the first pic that spider-hunter posted, it is black with a hint of gunmetal at the top. spider-hunter, I've gotta disagree with you that the lense are silver and the front spider is black. I am 98% sure that the eye lense is gun metal, it show's black in certain lighting, mettallic grey in some and silver in sun shots. As for the chest spider, I am PRETTY SURE it's not black, look at the pics, as you can see, they are of the same tone as the lenses in both shots. Check out Spider-Ham's suit, his chest spider is gun metal.

PS : If you're not sure what gun metal is, check out Cyclops Visor color in X2, that's gun metal.

[blaze269]

It's about time someone else sees the truth! They DID NOT change the lense colors. And NO it wasn't the first one. It's the deluxe edition with the suit commentary on it. Anyhow enough of this debate about BLACK lenses. Here's another shot of my suit.

I dont want to diss you guys or anything but whats the point in making spider-man suits? You hoping to wake up with spidey powers? =P

They look great and all but dont you kinda feel ashame to actually wear this stuff outside in public?

I understand people that are making them to sell them but people that actually buy those, I seriously do not understand you...

[Bob C]

I can help with that question.
I wondered that before, but alot of the guys wear them for charities to help children , fund raisers , promotions . etc
Now the guys that are dressing as Micheal Myers , those are the ones to ask why.
there are also occasions like dragon con , comic cons etc .

[spolen23]

Blaze, i photoshopped your photos, where can i email them to? Thought they needed a little something.

[Xeno]

Well Blaze, there ya' go. Look at your own chest spider, it ain't black in the pic. Oh yeah, how tall are you ?

[real-spiderman]

[QUOTE]Originally posted by Viller
[B]I dont want to diss you guys or anything but whats the point in making spider-man suits? You hoping to wake up with spidey powers? =P

The point for some is to make some extra cash. Others may enjoy it. I can say this, it isn't an easy task. Don't tell me you read all 258 or so pages without being the least bit curious yourself;)

They look great and all but dont you kinda feel ashame to actually wear this stuff outside in public?

You've obviously never seen a kids face light up when they see you in the suit. Besides, what fun would Halloween be without dressing up? I know plenty of adults that still do on that night.

I understand people that are making them to sell them but people that actually buy those, I seriously do not understand you...

Maybe thats the problem? You're way too serious?:D To each his own. I know what group I'd rather hang out with. ;)

[Drkepoch]

For some people its also a way to understand the character. I know that I personally would love to own a suit by yetter or tim, or some of the other craftsman here someday too. Everyone has their own reason for the things they do. I know that I want one simply cause I think they're cool 8) and I'm a loyal fan that wants a piece of spiderman history in my closet :D
Unfortunately the cash is not so readilly available...

We buy them because we're fans of the character.
We do it for the same reason James Bond fans spend 1000s
of dollars on props that don't actually do anything. It feels
good to own something that only a few others are able to
have as part of their collections. It's really that simple.

[Spider Tim 7]

To a child Spiderman is bigger then life. I have many times as Spiderman seen the reactions of children and they honor every word spidey says. It is so important for us adults to somehow inspire children to do there best and to be confident and to know that the world is at there feet. I myself have two little girls who tell their friends that their daddy is Spiderman. LOL

I visit kids in schools, hospitals and the like. I try to encourage them to read lots of books, to do there best and to make lots of friends. I even get children who will not eat because of deadly illness, to actually eat and their parents are overwelmed. They eat because Spidey asked them to. That my friend, is what you can do wearing tights in public.

I have no quims about wearing a spidey suit in public, I do it all the time. I would think that one who is unsure of their sexuality or who lacks confidence would be one to put down someone who does wear tights in public.

Also, making the suits is great because it helps me pay bills. Everyone knows that cops make no money. It also allows those who buy a suit to do the same thing. They go out and build a kid's heart up. I get lots of pics and emails from guys who bought a suit from me and they share about how they have been making appearances and how the kids react and are so excited. It's like gospel. LOL

As a law enforcement officer, I play spidey and try to bridge the gaps between community policing and the children. Some parents actually teach their kids that cops are bad people. As spiderman, I can inspire and encourage children to trust and to make friends with police. My Sheriff, the Police chief and most cops in my town know I am Spiderman and it is wonderful. We all have fun with it.

You can do so much as Spiderman. It is not about making money and trying to have spidey powers. It is healthy to fantasize and try to remain a child at heart. I have loved spidey since I was 5 and have always wanted to be like spiderman. Now that I am grown up, I am gonna be SPIDERMAN, DAMMIT!! LOL

Most importantly, for the record, I do not charge anything to make spidey appearances. I do it for fun. Thus the name, Spiderman4Fun.

Oh - BTW - the trim around the lenses and the chest spider are actually green. LOL

:spidey:

[SpiderJack]

Tim, I coulndn't have said it better. I too am in law enforcement, and have found the profound joy that you see in the eyes of the kids you meet when dressed as their favorite superhero. There's nothing like it.

BTW, my new suit is finally finished but the weather hasn't been the greatest around here in Ohio. So as soon as the sun breaks I'll have some pics. Hopefully before the opening of the movie. LOL

:spidey:

Hey watch yourself tim, my dads a cop. LOL, they make pretty good pay actually, not that of a plastic surgeon, but not so low that they are forced to live on the street.

I have to agree with tim here. Why do james bond fans pay thousands for a grappling hook watch that doesn't work?

Why do fans of rock stars pay hundreds for something like a beer can from the lead singer?

I myself have a spidey costume. It may not be the best of the best like these guys', right now, anything is fine for me. and when I get old enough, I will buy one of their costumes. Could be tims, spiderjacks, spiderhams, bobby c.'s, yetters. But the whole point is, we do it for FUN. Because it is the character that we idolize because of his bravery and because I think we all share his message, "with great power comes great responsibility".
And no, we don't think we will magically get his powers.:spidey:

P.s., green around the eyes and spider?

EXACTLY! In the PIC it may look a different color but it's BLACK as are my lenses! Just as the movie lenses are! And I'm 5'7''. Why do you ask?

[EvH347]

Hey ya'll...been awhile since I've had time to do any of this, but I wanted to show off what I've been building (working on). I may not have mad suit design skills, but I'm pretty good with computers and a solder gun. It's a MAME cab, but you can bet that it's got Spiderman on it. :)

And just to keep on topic...a new pic of me in my old suit.

[SPlKE]

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but if I have plain spandex how am I able to add a brick pattern onto it? Do I have to use a cpecial dye type technique?

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Blaze,
you look great in that suit, I hope you enjoy it.

Tim,
I second that, it couldn't be said any better.

Bob,
That glider is the bomb! That is really amazing! great job!

Evh,
That cabinet is awesome and that picture of the old suit looks great! My all time favorite video game is Marvel Vs Capcom. I didn't know they had just a Marvel game that had Venom.

[Bob C]

Thanks Larry to bad I have to auction it. but You remeber the car . still here , no more clay ! rooms finished .no more styrofoam.

[Spider-Ham Hype]

YEp that is definitly an awesome display piece. The room was cool then I'm sure it's better now. That was a crazy amount of styrofoam. Ever think about doing the whole GG suit?, you got the helmet and glider all you need it the suit. That would be a great display.

[Bob C]

I am GG out . I have a buyer for the glider , I will keep helmet .
and I am sticking with the bat.

[Spider-Ham Hype]

I know what you mean that GG suit would take a long time and be a head ache. That helmet is awesome btw

[Drkepoch]

That's sweet EVH :) Nice shot of the old suit to. Drop me a line sometime.

[Socrates]

Damn Bobby, I wish I could have the glider.:( And have you ever thought of making the web-shooter props?:spidey:

Well, now I'm thinking that the color is sort of flat metallic black, that's why it has that gun metal sheen. Oh yeah, I just knew you had that Toby Maguire physique going on there.

Spider-Ham - I was wondering whether you used fabric 3D paint for your Spidey 2 suit, it looks too neat ! ;)

PS : Can someone over in the US help me get Tulip's 3D fabric paint in a Jones Tones bottle ? Thanks. What's the diameter of the Jones Tones bottle tip ?

[blaze269]

Thank you Spider-Ham! I appreciate the compliment! Especially when it comes directly from the maker. You did an awesome job! I just went to a gaming store today for a little bit. It wasn't busy but had a blast. They are supposed to get the SM 2 game in tomorrow and I am going back there to help promote it. There was a little boy today that couldn't keep his eyes off of Spiderman. Then this girl who was staring away and finally said "I'ts hot in here." and went back outside. Go figure......It was really cool inside and she goes outside. I think she was getting hot not anyone else. LOL
Lastly, here's a lil something that Spolen23 did. Thanks a million for those awesome pics you did!

[Xeno]

Blaze, you look totally awesome in the 2nd pic, kind of Spidey swinging out opf his own apartment. :p

[Socrates]

blaze269, I can't quite put my finger on it, but something is kinda odd about your suit. I'm not sure what it could be, but I think you're wearing a muscle suit, that could be it...am I right about that?

[Socrates]

Hmmm

[Xeno]

It only looks that way because Spider-Ham's suit are custom made to have muscle shading.

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Xeno, yep I still use the 3d paint.
Blaze, I'm glad you like and and glad your having fun.
Zero, Yes it does have the muscle shadin on the suit.

[Xeno]

Ham, what's the diameter of Jones Tones bottle ? Oh yeah, has anyone used Plaids 3D paint before ? Oh yeah, how did you get your Webbings so neatly done Spider-Ham ? Oh yeah, what colors do you use for your webbings ? I am thinking of mixing Sequin Mettalic black with Sterling silver.

[spolen23]

Hey, no problem. I love doing it. I used to do visual effects for film and television. If anyone has some pics, i would be glad to do it for you. It is one of my talents. I wish I could make suits like you others, I enjoy being creative.

[Spider Tim 7]

Great job on the pics Spolen23.

[Andrew]

I'll have to keep checking back to that link to see if they have added some more cosumes.

[Robin31684]

Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone that has gotten a costume through this website ( http://hometown.aol.com/spidyfan43/index.html ) has any pics that they can post for me (besides the ones that are already posted on the website). I'm just really excited to see my suit in action and have heard that the pics on his site are a bit old and he has made improvements. any help would be awesome! Thanks again, guys. nice pics, blaze.

-Chris

[Luthor Kain]

How is the latex webbing on Spideyfan43's costume? Is it really strong and it won't pull-off or crack after you wear it more than 5 times? Thanks!

[Zendragon]

Hey... for those of you who wear your Spidey suits at various events...does anyone carry a web bag or something to store there belongings? I need something for a little cash and a small camera, maybe a room key.

Spy-D and Myself recently went to the Spiderman 2 Premiere in LA and wanted to post a review of the premiere and movie with pictures of the Premiere.
I made a Spider-Man 2 suit for myself and an Alex Ross Spider-Man suit for Spy-D for us to appear at the premiere in. The response was amazing! Media and fans were stopping us everywhere to get pictures, film and sound bites. Before the celebs arrived we were asked to go down on the RED CARPET to do an interview with Jimmy Kimmel Live. They sent Uncle Frank dressed as “Uncle Spidey”, which was hilarious. After we talked to them many of the other media outlets asked us to pose or interview us; many were national and international media.
We were ushered back to the bleachers and the celebrities started to arrive. The entire cast was there and several spotted us and acknowledged us. First Alfred Molina pointed us out, waived and gave the thumbs up. Next Rosemary Harris also saw us and was very nice in her complements of the costumes, she also gave us the thumbs up. I was able to move further down in the bleachers so I could get closer and Kirsten Dunst was next in line. She saw me and said “Cool Costume!” I responded “Thank You!” Last and certainly not least, was Sam Raimi. At that time I went to the front of the bleachers. I got his attention and when he saw me he did a double take, I’m sure he wasn’t expecting to see Spidey in the stands. He then said “Cool Costume!” I said “Thanks!” then he started to walk closer and said “Did you make it?” I said “Yes!” he said “Cool!” then asked, “What’s your name?” I said “Larry” then we shook hands. Then I pointed out Spy-D and his suit and Sam’s eyes got wide again. He was also very complimentary of that suit as well. Then they shook hands. Sam Raimi is truly a class act and I can not say enough about how cool he is. When some celebs won’t even look at the fans he went out of his way to shake our hand. After that we went to the theatre to see the film. We watched the entire movie in our suits.
I can not say enough about how great this film is! Mr. Raimi has again raised the bar for what a comic book movie should be. It really is a much better film then the first in every way and I loved the first film. The opening credits start out with paintings done by Alex Ross that emphasize some of the key scenes from the first film. And they are great! They show the scenes in a different perspective and add a new twist to the scenes with an amalgam of Alex Ross style classic Spider-Man and movie Spider-Man. This movie is much more fun then the first in all aspects. It doesn’t feel as stiff as the first and it has much more interesting filming and camera work and many scenes are classic Raimi, which work and work well! There is way more Spidey and him doing Spidey stuff. The mix and balance and quality of the story is perfect. Every performer gives a fantastic performance. You could not ask for a more talented or better group of performers for this film. Bruce Campbell’s cameo is great and hilarious. This movie pays homage to the comic in many ways and has many cameos and references to other characters in the Spidey and Marvel Universe. The action scenes are great, and the CG works. The interaction and drama between the characters is brilliant and could not have been better. The emotional aspects of this movie are beyond anything ever done in a superhero film. The plot twists are completely unpredictable. Like all great movies it has layers to it and really has a positive message that everyone can learn from. When it’s all over it makes you wanting more and wondering what is going to happen next. I can not wait to see this movie again and can’t wait to see what they do next in Spider-Man 3. I wish I had 8 arms so I could give it eight thumbs up.

Thanks everyone for the compliments! It's great to hear we made it on tv in Scotland. Others said they have seen us on tv in UK and on Extra, Access, ET and many others. We will probably be on Jimmy Kimmel which will be cool.

[Wams]

SPIDER-HAM IS THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!! :cool:

[mattlear]

Hey all,

I've been reading the forum (lurking) for a while, and I have to say "fantastic job" to all of you on the suits you've done.

For those interested, the NY Daily News had an article in an add-on section about Spiderman 2 and Tobey Maguire.

I figured some of you may want to check it out.

Daily News Spiderman article (http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/index.html)

Keep up the good work!

-Matt

[EvH347]

That's awesome Larry. You had to be nervous with all that attention and then going down the red carpet. Oh man, that had to be so much fun.

I can't believe that you fellas watched the whole movie in your suits. I remember how hot I would get after just being 30 minutes in your suit. And the funniest part was looking at my arms after peeling it off. I actually had web lines imprinted on my skin. I looked like I was still wearing the suit! :D

[Germanspider]

@Larry: Great... amazing... fantastic... i´ve also seen you on german television... i didn´t know it was you in the suit but when i saw the scenes i´ve told a friend of mine, that i know the guy who made the suit.

Yes, I saw you chaps on TV here also. I honestly thought it was a promotion or something, those costumes are absolutely incredible.

[Drkepoch]

Spider-Ham, those suits are awesome! The Alex Ross version is my favorite. It's so cool that Raimi actually stopped to shake your hand.

Keep up the great work ;)

EVH347,
I actually wasn't nervous, I think because I had prepared myself mentally for a long time, I knew if we went there like that we would get a lot of attention, and I told myself for a long time to just stay cool when it happens. But I still never thought we would get to the red carpet and never thought we would be seen by so many. I just remember thinking how cool it was to be on the red carpet being interviewed by Jimmy Kimmel and the rest and I didn't want to do or say anything that misrepresented spider-man, marvel or sony. Especially because I was really just a fan not an appearance person.
Yep we watched the whole thing and it was great. I really never got hot at all in the suit and actually when it the sun started to go done it was starting to get chilly. I have definitly had web lines imprinted over my body before it's an odd thing to see, but I have been able to find a more flexible material and haven't had that happen much any more.

Thank you! very much! that is really cool we got on German TV too, what type of show was it?

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Thanks Man!

YEah Sam Is a real class act, Spidey fans are very lucky to have him at the helm.

[Spider Tim 7]

WOW!! I'm at a loss for words.

It does make me wonder why the hell I moved from LA to NC. LOL

Oh yeah...to attend UNC. I actually used to work for Sony Pictures in the post Production facility off of Overland.... Sigh... LOL

Awesome job guys, my mask goes off to you.

Congratulations Spider-Ham and Wams, how are you going to top this? We have to wait another two years til Spider-man 3.

[spiderfan09]

Great job spider-ham, you have always had one f the best suits, you deserve it all!!!

[Orcinus]

Fantastic appeareance.

On Thursday night / Friday, Spiderman opens down here and I plan to go suited to the local premiere :) Got tickets #1, #2, #3 and #4 for me and some friends.

I'm killing myself in the gym in order to be in shape :P

[SpiderManYetter]

Ham,

I AM SOOO JEALOUS!! Congrats to you and Wams in being there and hyping it up for all of us. When I was in the first movie and spent time w/ Tobey and Sam Raimi it made memories for a lifetime. I tried like hell to get to the red carpet and here you guys did it dressed for success!!

[Wams]

It was fun being usherd onto the red carpet to talk to the media and take pics.
We were the stars at that momment.
It was just as exciting as when I was on the set of the first Spider-man movie as well. That day was the first day they filmed the Spider-man suit and I was there to behold the magic.:D Words could not describe how cool it was to see one of my childhood heroes right in front of me. I got to speak to John Dykstra and briefly to James Acheson. Later that year I got to speak with Mr.Rami on two seperate occasions.
Mike hill went on to tell my story to Spiderman Hype as one of there very first discriptions of the suit.
Ooooh, the good ol days.:cool:

Wams

[blaze269]

That's absolutely awesome that you guys got on the red carpet like that. When I first saw the other thumbnail pics I thought it was thee movie suit until today when I read this. Ham, Wams, you guys rock!

[SpidEMC]

Hey what can I say. This Knight salutes you and all your efforts and hard work. It blows my mind that you guys have such class to handle the media like that. I wonder who will be doing my character's suits and showing up out of no where if we go to a true Movie for my novel. Only time will tell.

But this section of the board definately goes to Spidey- Wams, and Ham what a combo. Keep kicking butt, and hopefully we will see you guys at a major convention some day.

[Bob C]

EXCELLENT JOB YOU GUYS!!!!!!
suits look fantastic , the rush must have been great .
but who the hell is that beutiful reporter ( not jimmy k)?

[Xeno]

Wow !!! Spider-Ham, totally awesome !!! :D That must've been a once in a lifetime experience eh ? Oh yes, can someone please tell me the diameter of a Jone's Tones bottle tip, I got a bottle, just need to know the diameter before I cut the tip off. What are the colors most of you use ?

[Socrates]

Spider-Ham, you are so lucky. I can't imaging how cool that musta been for you. And your suit is so awesome, keep up the good work!:D

[spolen23]

Bob, am I mistaken or have we not seen your suit yet? You are doing it with Wams, right? No offense, but I keep forgetting who the other guys is. We want to see the pics!

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Spider-hunter,
If you don't mind please take your post of the auction down.

[Zendragon]

I don't want to over-shadow the premiere posting, but I was hoping that someone could help.

for those of you who wear your Spidey suits at various events...does anyone carry a web bag or something to store there belongings? I need something for a little cash and a small camera, maybe a room key.

Thanks guys!

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Wow! were do I start? Well I guess I can start with saying thanks to all of you and your great feedback! It was an amazing expereience, I'll never forget.

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Zen,
We were lucky enough to have someone with us to carry our wallets and take pictures. It helped out a lot becuase there is no room in a spidey suit to carry anything.

[Spider-Ham Hype]

Bob,
Thanks, yep it was a rush. The reporter was from Australia, that's about all I know of her, her and her camera man were very nice.
Xeno, I just use a standard Tulip bottle.

[SPlKE]

Zendragon I often wear shorts under the trousers and put small things in there, but a wallet bulges out. I also made my own utility belt outta funky foam that goes under my suit and made lots of foam type pouches to store cash and room keys if i'm at a hotel. Camera though I have to get someone else to hold normally.

[SpidEMC]

yeah its tricky work with the cameras and stuff liek that. You can make a small web ball and tight nitched so that you can carry stuff in it, or even go to a girls store. I know doesn't sound right but they have some netted looking typs carrying bags taht could represent a web or sorts. Just a thought.

[Rising Spider]

hey spiderham u have the best suit i've seen.. i'm curious though for the brick/honeycomb pattern is it silkscreening? and if so, do u make up the whole suit first, then get it silkscreened? then apply the raised webbing?

[Rising Spider]

one more thing to airbrush the shading on, did u go out and pay top dollar for a professional job? or even go out to a toy store, and grab an airbrush for a model car kit, or something.

[blaze269]

Spolen has done it again........ Some amazing pics. This is one of my favorites that he has done.
http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/Blaze269/Spidey911.jpg

[Bob C]

Fantastic Job !, but disturbing.

[Xeno]

Does anyone know the diameter of the Tulips or JonesTones bottle ?

[Xeno]

The tip of the bottle I mean.

[spolen23]

Thanks, I enjoy doing the pics. Anyone know where that line is from? I kinda took it from somwhere and modified it a bit. I am pretty sure the people on here will know for sure where it's from.

[spolen23]

Ok, have some bad news on the webshooter front. If you didn't know, Diamond Select had made some replica web shooters that were for display only. You can't even wear them and things didn't work on them. Kinda just here they are.

http://www.spidermantoyvault.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=139

Supposedly, a company called Factory X was going to make web shooters that you could wear, take things off, buttons work and it was supposed to be waaaay cooler. I just got off the phone with someone at the company and they said that they will not be making anything for Marvel. They said that they did not want to purchase the license. I said, "I guess you didn't want all that money!" She laughed and said that the price was too high for a startup company. Guess someone else will have to make them for us diehards. Bobby C, isn't that something you could sculpt easily??

[Bob C]

I have seen one of the most fantstic webs shooters by a board member , everyone will see soon . he is in the works

[spolen23]

Really, can you go into any detail? Anyone seen these?

The man gets the prize! Good job! Ok, I am off to see the 12:01am showing of Spiderman 2. I am excited!! I will report back, although I'm sure most of you will have seen it by then.

[blaze269]

Just got back and I have to say that movie kicked some serious @$$!!!! I can't wait to see it again tomorrow. Maybe twice more tomorrow.

[spolen23]

I just came back also, it was AWSOME!!!!!! But, I did get a ticket on my way home, even that didn't spoil my mood. Stupid Cops!! (Sorry I know some of you are cops on here)

[LarTheLad]

im up a little later then usuall and saw something about webshooters and i have this link saved in my favorites http://www.retroprops.com/ It looks like this company could possibly make the 70's style version of the webshooters. I thought I had a link for the 2000 style ones, but i think ive only really seen pics, not any prop companys which might make a 2000 year style pair of webshooters. I'm pretty sure they are only props and that don't truly dont work. At least though, you'd have a pair of webshooters to wear, if you so wanted too. I just thought I'd pass on a tidbit of info to you Spidey Fanatics :)

[torchdiver]

Well, watching spidey at the MOA yesterday made me realize I have a very looooooong way to go to get into really good shape. I'm better than I used to be, but there is still more to be done.

I'm trying to train for a marathon, which will help, but I've beey way too busy: 2 part time jobs (one's actually a volunteer thing), a father, and full-time employed.

Anyway - go spidey!!!!!!

[SpiderManYetter]

Hey Thanks Torch! My legs are trashed!!

[Orcinus]

Well... Spiderman opens tomorrow here in Mexico

I'm gonna go dressed as spidey to the opening =)

Have fun! :)

[spolen23]

Hey, Larthelad, thanks for the link. Very cool site! If you click on links they have the 70s and the movies webshooters, also they have the eyes and the spider from the first movie. I tried calling the prop master from the first film. I found his name in the credits and got his number, maybe he can tell me who made the original ones.

hey man, not sayin' I'm gay or anything, but you shouldn't throw that word around like that, or use it in that mannor.

[torchdiver]

Oops - I was wrong. That didn't come from a Happy Meal or Kid's Meal, it came from a Kelloggs cereal box. I looked at the one we've got at home - it had Kelloggs on the bottom.

[tengu17]

Hi! I've not posted here in a long time. I must say that I am VERY impressed with all of your work!! The movie costumes look incredible. I've made a couple of costumes myself but they are more of the comic type suit. pictures of my suit are waaaaay back in the first few pages of this thread,"if they're still there", I haven't checked. Anyway I was wondering if anyone would tell me what you're using to make the raised webbing on your movie suits? I'm considering making one "a movie suit" but I can't seem to figure out how to get the webbing right. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

PS: Does Spidermanyetter still post on this thread? C-ya!

[SpiderManYetter]

Hey Tengu - Still alive & kicking!

I'm speechless (and envious!)...that suit is a true work of art

I salute you Yetter and Bob C...yet again AMAZING work!

[EvH347]

First, it's an amazing suit. Very impressive.

But, it's also for sale...already?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2254102588&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT

Also, am I the only one who sees pieces of web missing? There appear to be 2 to 3 pieces on the front that have fallen off already and the one piece going lenthwise across the back. The webs are incredible, but if they pull off so easily, I'm not so sure I'm sold on them versus alternative methods. Anybody else?

[spiderfan09]

great job you two!!!

Also, am I the only one who sees pieces of web missing? There appear to be 2 to 3 pieces on the front that have fallen off already and the one piece going lenthwise across the back. The webs are incredible, but if they pull off so easily, I'm not so sure I'm sold on them versus alternative methods. Anybody else?
no, i saw that too

[spolen23]

WOW, great suit. I love the shapes of the webs using the molds, but am I wrong, it doesn't look like it is very strong. I noticed a broken piece on the front, will that start to happen to all? Can you fix whatever tears? It's kind of the same thing as my Blockbuster Statue. I have seen some that have the webbing broken and once it snaps, you are kind of screwed. What about the eyes? Is it the pic that makes it look see through or is it really like that? You should find out how Spidertim made his eyes white.

[SpiderManYetter]

A couple of things about webbing. A) It can only stretch so far and that stretch depends upon the type of material the webbing is made of. Sizing is critical. B) The movie suits were constantly under repair. They were always gluing & re-gluing broken joints and snags. It's just the nature of the beast. Printed webs would have made a much more durable suit.

[spiderman5080]

Spider-Man 2 was amazing!!!!!!!

Ive seen some great suits here, and im curently working on mine. I was planning on sculpting my webs with oil based clay. So I recieve it the other day, but the clay is to hard to flatten even after heating it. Anyone have any suggestions? Ive heard of urathane sculpting, but dont know what that is.

Thanks

[spolen23]

Bobby C told me that someone is working on some webshooters that will blow our minds, anybody know anything about this? I have a great idea for working webshooters (not web fluid obviously) but shooters that could shoot water pretty far with the press of a button, anybody good at fabricating?? I will try, but it will take me way too long to get up to speed on the learning curve. I spoke to the Prop master from spiderman 1, he was a very nice guy. He told me that he would let me know who fabricated the original webshooters for the movie that were not used. He was upset that they didn't use them also and told me the whole story about Sam and how he didn't want them. Anyway, if you are handy and know a thing or two about electrical devices and fabrication, give me a buzz, we might be able to do something really cool.

[blaze269]

Well I made the local newspaper yesterday. It's only one that comes out like once a week or so though. They had me on the rooftop at the theatre. Things went great and saw the movie again as well.

[EvH347]

I saw Spidey 2 yesterday and I'm definitely going to see it again. It was awesome! It got me inspired to churn out some new Photoshop magic of my old suit again...I love doing these. :D

Hey Superhero Bro's

Im making a Fan film based on a script we've put together called
Batman: Caught in the Spiders Web and its basically about how Peter Parker goes to gotham on a job for the daily bugle and when he turns into Spider-man he keeps getting in batmans way, in the final sequence Batman has enough and the two batttle, but by the end of the movie they team up to fight Two-Face scarecrow and the joker. Were in preproductions now and we start filming the first week of August. What i need to know is this:

I had a Full latex Batsuit made, very nice, one of the best out there, but for spider-man all i have is a Spider-ham movie 1 suit that doesnt fit my actor at all. I was wondering if there was anyone out there that i could rent the costume from them for about 2 week to film with? Please help me out guys!


Thanks,

The-Spider

[Glsmatt-Spider]

I'm almost finished making my suit. I still need to apply on the back spider which I created out of foamies. Anyways, the color red does not match the red color of my suit and I was wondering what should I use to paint the back spider? Would acrylic paint work or what can I use that would make the color permanent??

[blaze269]

Here's one of me on the roof at the theatre this week on opening day.

it seems to me something is gonna happen here.

[Spider Tim 7]

Bro - you should have said somthing a year ago - I would have done what it takes to make it better - lots have changed since then and I have gotten so much better.

Anyway, I wanted you guys to know that I have started a Spidey Suit Drawing for this coming Halloween. I think it is a cool idea inspired by various others and so now I am gonna give it a try.

My suggestion is stay away from everything but latex based paint. I've had foamies melt away from spray paint and oil based paints. Most paint or hardware stores have a color matching system. Take a scrap of your red material to the store and make some latex paint to match it perfectly.

[spiderfan09]

Oh boy, I would love to win that. That would be the only way I could ever afford one of your suits. I will ask my mom.:eek:

[spiderman5080]

How are the webs for the movie suit sculpted? Oil based clay? Urathane(however that works)? Or something else? Ive tried so many things.

[<Mr.Spider>]

I know this is a little off topic but has anyone ever thought of doing a villian costume...I'm working on a doc ock harness based on some of the drawins in the "caught in the web " book...but I wanted to ask..what do you think the best clay would be to work with? oh and do any of you guys wear "skull shells" under your masks?jus...just one more thing...how do you post pics?..my rules say im not allowed to post attatchments.

Spidey Suit Drawing (http://hometown.aol.com/spiderman4fun/raffle.html)

Hey tim, whatsup!
Sorry dont get me wrong, the suit isnt bad at all! I just want something even more expensive now, something that looks really almost exactly like the original movie costume, and i know i will have to spend LOTS of money more for that...
Once again, dont get me wrong, your suit is great!!!

[spiderman5080]

Can anyone explain how the digital print process is used to print the brick pattern/ muscles? I heard somewhere spider-ham uses it. Anyone know where it could be done?

Thanks

Yeah, I have made many doc ocks, In fact, I am just starting a new one

[Spinedoc]

(Used to post on here under CBanks66, but couldn't get my password to work or be reset.) I saw Spider-man 2 for the second time yesterday. I saw it at the drive in in Kent, OH, and there was someone in a spider-man costume. I am trying to figure out who it was based on these forums and German Spider's site. I've narrowed it down to SpiderHam, EvH347 or Fernando. Someone fess up! It was a great costume. I'll try and post the pics soon. (I should have just asked, but there was a line and I didn't want to hold everyone up.)

[blaze269]

I made the front page here. It just came out today.

Blaze, what a great photo. I also enjoy dressing up for the kids. I'm sorry that I missed "opening day" opportunity here in Lakeland.

[SpidEMC]

All in a good cause. Wal-Mart in my area was having a DR Pepper Promotion, with Spiderman also in the store. One of the guys that works there knows me, and was begging me to go in the manager's place of being spiderman. He said he was out of shape and the costume was terrible. So what can I say I love this stuff. We raised a very good amount of money for the Childrens network for Handicap Kids. I enjoyed it and stayed 3 hours the customers were thrilled. I love to give my time to charity it really makes you feel good on the inside, besides wouldn't the real Spidey do it if he had time to. It's the holiday so I might was well have a blast.

I better get back to Knight Seeker that is more of his kind of pose, I am so much not Spidey anymore, but oh well gotta wear the spidey suit once in a while :)

is there a tutorial on how to make a spider-man costume?

for fun i think im just going to make a t-shirt and wear it underneath my jacket like i was wearing the suit under neath. i found a good logo shirt but it has no webs and i was thinking of useing felt paint to add the webs on it.

[Fanged-Hunter]

Long time, no post, folks! Just a quick glance makes me say "The costumes are still goin' great and this is the strongest post I've ever known!" Keep up the great work you costumers. Unfortunately, my work on a Spider-costume has ended. I've been pulled into other costumes but one day I'll get back to it.

Spider-Hunter, and Mick, special "hello" to you both :P

[SpidEMC]

Hey Great Pics Orcinus, I know everyone at the theater had a great time with you there, made the expeirnce even more true to life

[Orcinus]

spiderhunter - yes it's my first "movie style suit".

Now thanks to lots of posters I have been getting, I am about to start design and manufacture of a "close to real one" suit.

First I need to *train myself* I understand it.

Second, I'll get the best lycra cotton fabric I can hold to. I want to try to make this time on lycra-cotton.

Third I need to have it screened, and I've got a friend who can do that job.

Fourth I'll have my seamstress do the body suit with all the care in the world.

Fifth I'll need to develop technology to make the webbing close to truth. My current paint technique is cool as it is very resistant yet I want it *raised*.

:)


Wish me luck. I'd rather buy a costume from spidermanhype yet with 20 dollars a day wage I can't :(

[spiderman5080]

Ok so from what I understand to make the webs you have to sculpt with oil based caly, mold with silicone, and cast with urethane. Is this right? If so how do I get the clay flattened out? I tried a dough roller, but the clay would just stick to the roller and make a mess.


Thanks

Hey gang... went to Vegas about a week and a half ago and picked myslef up a little souvenir. It's a sickness I swear.....lol
http://home.mchsi.com/~byetter/DSC00188.JPG

[Anakin]

Yetter,

Nice tatoo...you're scarred for life now!:D

Talked about the same kinda thing with a friend of mine...he said...

"You can't do that you'll grow out of it and feel ashamed of your Superhero tatoo in a few years"

My response...

"Grow out of it? What am I 12 years old? I'm 26 years old...I'll never grow out of it..."

Strange how some people can't see past Comic Book characters being for anything other than children.

I hope you can wash that off with soap and water after a day Yetter.:eek: Its gonna suck If they change the logo for the next movie. LOL!!!!!;)


Wams:cool:

[SpiderManYetter]

The only way this is coming off is if I lay my bike down again wearing a wife beater.... lol. Thought the logo was too cool and would make a great tat...besides, it's got sentimental value. Bobby scored an orginal spider from 2, I scanned it, you see the results...O.K. maybe Im a little quirky but it makes a great convo piece.

[SpiderManYetter]

Not sure who the actor is but thats a HAM original...

[blaze269]

I want to get a tat on somewhere like my ribs or something. It's going to be as if I have been cut and inside the red and webbing are gonna be showing. Or since the location would work, it could be both the blue and red showing.Nice lookin one you got there Yetter!!! That would be cool in the center of the chest too. LOL

Hey you stole my idea Yetter :D hahahahaha.

Actually I was thinking about having the Knight Seeker Tat of the Icon done on my lower back where I had my surgery done almost 2 years ago. The Icon is way cool also.

What's next Yetter? It's a great Tat but you know you can't stop there. Hmm perhaps web markings on your hands or feet ;) the wife will really love that :eek:

Hey kid! I'm not one to tell someone to NOT listen to their parents (and this is coming from a 34 year old teacher). Don't EVER give up on liking or loving stuff like this! I'm 34 and love it and always will. NEVER lose sight of the child within you...that's what makes life more magical.

Holly crap! You mean that there are TWO of us Spider-guys in Kent Ohio? I was doing the gig down at the Kent Plaza Theater that same day! LOL But WOW what a great suit. Whoever it is I'd love to get with them and compare the suits. So if the owner of that suit is lurking on the board get with me PLEASE!

BTW, here's what my new suit looks like. I'm still waiting on the pics from the movie premiere night at the theatre. But this is one with my friend in from California. He's a huge Spiderman fan and about died when he saw the suit. As you can tell from his expression. LOL

I couldn't agree more. Heck I'm a 38 year old Detective. And I love to play around. I'm active with local community theatre groups and as you can see I'm not afraid to dress up and have fun. Always keep your dreams alive. Heck it helps keep me young. LOL

[torchdiver]

I saw Spidey again at another of our local malls (not the Mall of America this time).

I brought my kids, and they thought it was great. They are thrilled to have an "Official Autograph" from Spiderman.

Radio Disney was doing their monthly program at the same time, which is for kids who are in the Simon Kidgits Club. It was a bit slower than the MOA, and there were actually times when there were no kids in line.

During one of those (rare) times, he and I actually had a conversation. It actually felt kind of wierd to just talking to Spiderman. Unfortunately, my kids were too busy to notice that he and I are friends. Oh well, maybe next time he's in town.

Take a break Spidey, you've earned one.

[<Mr.Spider>]

hey guys I've got some pics of my suit but I don't know how to post them...any advice?

[SpiderManYetter]

Thanx Torch! After Sunday... I was hurtin' something fierce. I train for this stuff but sometimes it takes a toll on ya. Its like doing squats all afternoon. It was good to hang with ya at Maplewood. Wish we had more time to chit-chat. Hope it was special for your kid's.

<Mr.Spider> you need to get yourself an online photo hosting site. I recommend

Photobucket.com

It's free. You just create an account, then "upload" your pictures to their server. Then you just use the photo tags that are created there and paste them into whatever forum you want. It's really pretty easy. Good Luck and I look forward to seeing your suit.

[<Mr.Spider>]

I just rembered that these people took pics of me while I was at jacon...these are the only 2 pics so far cause I didnt have a camera at the time but I can post the links for the pics so...here.
www.risingsun.net
go to jacon 2004 photos near middle of page
the go to saturday misc....then click on pages 341-408...and I'm at the bottom

this'LL have to do until I get proper pics.
photobucket says they're under maintenance so I cant sign up yet.

[torchdiver]

Oh yes, SpiderManYetter, my kids had a great time. I did too, actually. Let me know next time you're in the area.

[spolen23]

Has anyone downloaded the new spiderman movie on your pc? I have heard that it is already on the net. I have some leads on where it is :)

[Orcinus]

Has anyone downloaded the new spiderman movie on your pc?

If I could, I would rather not do it. I have 5 free tickets to any movie of my local cineplex and I prefer to use them watching Spiderman 2 on a THX-equipped theater than the tiny screen of my PeeCee watching a blurry screener.

Next Saturday and Sunday I might collect 10 more tickets ;)... the local cineplex asked me to assist and they appreciate my services with lots of tickets XD

And then, I will buy a couple original DVDs... because it´s worth every penny you invest on them, specially because of the behind the scenes stuff.

[Drkepoch]

I don't know if I speak for everyone, but I would never do that. It's illegal, and if you don't support moviemakers, they're just going to stop making the movies that we love.

Spiderjack, that's a nice lookin' suit. Keep up the good work ;)

[Germanspider]

I wouldn´t... besides it´s illegal, i like to see and listen to original movies in cinema with THX or DVDs at home with dolby surround... what the hell should i do with an illegal copy in a poor quality?

I´m working for my money... the moviemakers also do it... so they earn the money i pay for cinema or a DVD... and that´s the way it works all over the world.

I can't say i'm against the whole movie on the pc thing, considering i've already seen it at the theater a couple times, and i still plan on buyin the dvd when it comes out to dvd, i just need something to tie me over, i did that with the first spiderman. I've seen that movie a total of 32 times now. Because i had it on my computer, but i still bought the dvd, then the collector's set. I'm still waiting to purchase the deluxe dvd with the 3rd. Disk. As for tips about the costumes, I've asked a couple people now. And haven't gotten a single reply so i gave up. Either they're just not seeing my message, or they don't want to give up their secrets. :mad: it's all good though.

[SpiderJack]

Rising Spider -

I've looked back a few pages now and I can't see where you've posted "anything." What's your questions about spider suits? Maybe I can help.

Heh...there only basing the characters off of stuff they've seen. I'm sure they've seen the cartoon that was on Fox for both characters. I would've said something by now that would have got me a nice big slap in the face to them. You need to talk with them both and try to make them understand that millions love both characters. And that liking them does not make you a baby. Batman is a character that is very brutal. And Spider-man is just like everyone else, how could somebody not like Spider-man?!?!?!:D

[Orcinus]

So what's the best fabric for a movie suit?

Lycra Cotton or Lycra Poly/Nylon? :)

I'm thinking my next suit (movie-style) should be done on hi quality lycra/cotton blend... then have the texture printed on it...

[SpiderJack]

Yetter,

Have you posted any new/finished pics of your suit yet? Or did I miss it?

And Bobby C., could you email me a quote on webbing and the suit kit too. Thanks

I believe the recommended one is Cotton Lycra, but I'm currently using Nylon Lycras as it has that nice sheen to it.

Spider Jack, AWESOME SUIT !!! Where did you get the silk screening done on your suit and was it costly ?

Bob C, can you e-mail me as well ? xeno_kenobi@hotmail.com

Tim,

Thanks man! Couldn't have done it without your help. *wink-wink*

Xeno,

Talk to Spider Tim 7 about silk screening.

[SpiderJack]

Tim,

Wait till you see the pics from the movie opening. It was a blast. Now, if I can just get the manager to email them to me LOL. I've called her everday since the opening. She keeps promising to email them. Oh well, should have brought my OWN camera. I was so excited about the appearance I forgot to bring it. LOL
