dude, after i get my suit and am able to really figure out how everything was sewn we should actually make our own. ya know, kinda how we're supposed to... what do ya say? start from scratch and everything. learn photoshop, make our own print, FREAKIN' EVERY STEP just the true fans on this page. i wanted to make my own but gave up when i found out someone else would do it for me. i want to have the pride of knowing i made my own suit, even if the first one does suck some anus

 

[spidey86]

That would be awesome. Except that i have no skills in costume making at all.

i asked for a refund and he responded to the e-mail real quick and said he's still mailing it out this weekend. he was in school all week. i guess we'll see...

I have a spidertim suit and it came to me after 2 months. Honest to god. I've heard before that people had problems, but he came through for me. I dont know how to help other than offer sympathy.

Well I hope it actually comes soon. Here's hoping. And I'm not sure if maybe it's just my internet but spideyplanet.com isn't working anymore. Can anyone else confirm that? And if it is that upsets me greatly.

Nope, it's shut down for now.
My guess is he just didn't pay for the domain, considering it's down at the first of the month. No sense in keeping it up if he's not taking orders atm.

I'd like to let everyone know that he is not pulling any scams though. I just recieved a package from him a few days ago. I've worked with Schuurkes for awhile.. so, don't worry or complain if you have orders you've already paid for; you'll get them.

Really depends on what you are capable of doing yourself, and for the things you can't do can yo find someone who will make you a good deal.

I think that once I'm done with both of the costumes I'm working on I'll have probably about $1200 or so invested into them total. Some of that is due to good timing.

That's a really big question.

First, do you want the traditional spiderman costume or a variant (like Scarlet Spider or Black suit Spidey? just to mention a few)?

Second, do you want a comic-style version or a movie-accurate replica?

Third, do you want raised webbing or printed webbing? If raised, do you want tulip paint or urethane webs?

Are we adding a face shell and custom lenses?

*pant* *pant*


Anywhere from a few hundred for a cheap one or a few thousand for a movie-accurate one with all the trimmings (best lenses, faceshell etc).

I want the traditional costume much like the one from the film and raised webbing, how much would it cost if I wanted to make one myself?

If you want to make one like the movie's, yourself.. It would cost you upwards of $3000, just to get an engineer to CNC the molds for the webs. That's not including if you have to commision someone to make the pattern in a 3D program, for the machine to work off of. That's also not including molds or patterns for a front spider, back spider, and each of the lenses frames.

Then your next big step is making a photoshop pattern with the correct coloring, muscle shading, brick work, and web guide-lines. You'll need to find a big dye-sublimation printer who can print that off onto fabric for you. Which runs a few hundred bucks a print.

Once you get that far, come back for the rest.

If you don't want to DiY, and you are happy with it being a great costume that isn't 100% movie accurate, you can definitely spend less than $1500. If you can do a mix of buying and doing easier things yourself you can come in under $1000.

You're exactly right They shut me down, because the bill wasn't paid. Doesn't come at a very bad time though, because I'm working on a new website. Problem is however that they shut down my email as well, so if anyone needs to contact me use my old one [email protected]

Since I know you're still in business. Can I reserve a kit?

All i got was an auto reply

"Out of Office AutoReply:

Please send your e-mails to [email protected][/SIZE][/I]"

 

[Schuurkes]

That problem is now solved.
