Making the perfect Spidey suit

Spider Ham no longer dose spidey suits he stopped around 06 07.
 
Hi folks. Been missing for a while, due to family stuff (kids sure take up your free time!). But I am back and now seriously looking at making my own pattern / suits as much for my three boys as for myself.

I'm sure this has been asked before. In fact I may have even asked myself a while ago. Does anyone have a copy of sony pattern files that were circulating a few years back? I have the thermal scan versions which you can get on eBay, and have put a lot of time into creating 3D web layers with illustrator on top of them, but the thermal scan is missing so much of the brick pattern, that it makes it next to impossible to alter the colours successfully.

I did find a guy back towards the end of 2007 that had the sony files, and was basing his designs off that. He had agreed to share them with me, but attempted transfers failed, and I have been unable to contact him since.

As I understand it, several people used these Sony files as starting points for their own work, and I am hoping to do the same.

Does anyone know someone that might have copies of these files?
 
I know how you feel I have been trying to get the sony pattern for a while. If other people were able to start with it then I wish we could get the same opportunity. My fingers are crossed that someone can point us in the right direction.

good luck finding the sony print file... I wouldn't mind one myself I could also use a CAD file of the 3D web pattern for spidey now that I have access to a CNC machine, the guy I am in talks with as told me he can re-size the web file to fit children for the parents that want to make mini spidey suits. But no one is willing to make a trade for the file or sell one.... This has turned more into a show off/Sellers thread then information sharing...
 
A shame indeed if that is the case. I know there are people out making suits purely to make money from it, but there are definitely some others here that are just genuine spidey fanatics and are just into making suits for other enthusiasts (and only take money to cover the hours of toil and materials they put into making suits)

Hopefully there are still a few of the latter still reading and posting here. Just hoping for the same starting point as some of the folks with a few years experience on me!

Hi Hype guys and gals, long time lurker, just want to say outstanding work to all you guys, I am a big Spidey fan and own several suits including one made by OVDH, an alien symbiote and a Spidey4fun red and blue. I recently ordered a Scarlet Spider body suit from Brad along with a buckle and some over sized spiders for the shirt, I will be making the web shooters, shirt, and ankle pouches myself, it will be my first venture into prop building and I am very excited to share some pics with the board ( if I'm allowed to post pics by then, I think i am prohibited from that now as a new member ). Thanks and may you're Spidey senses always tingle.

where'd you find the pic?
maybe it was posted by the maker itself
otherwise, search the thread for that pic (I know...) you'll find it's maker
 
I'm pretty sure that's an OVDH (Ollie) suit and you won't be getting one of those anytime soon. Ollie just fell off the face of the earth and took some people's money about 8 months ago. (Sorry if the time frame is not exact)
I hate to sound like a broken record but it seems like no one on the board want's to help get people like myself and Irish-Spidey going with making a costume. I know its asking a lot but somebody point us in the right direction.

I spent two days last week hand drawing a mask pattern on red lycra and sewing it. That's how desperate I have become to make my own suit.

Yeah you wont be able to purchase one of these since Ollie left the boards awhile back..Nobody knows where he is or where he went. Ollie doesn't make these fasinating suits anymore. Because I requested one also a while back and was told that the guy that made these suits which was Ollie had left this board..I would recommend you go with Spidey4Fun.com. Brad has the best quality suits out there and afforable.

Go here for a kick a@# Spidey suit, Brad is great to deal with and a really talented dude, definitly the most bang for you're buck. I was one of the guys who dealt with Ollie and I was lucky he finally came through with my suit, my buddy Gundam was'nt so lucky, I think it's been 2 years for him waiting for what he was promised.:csad:

My molds, printing methods and general suit construction techniques are most likely different to Ollie's methods. I've never seen an Ollie suit in real life, only in pictures so no I cant make a suit the same as his.
 
Hey forum,

I have been planning to answer some of the recent question for sometime now but wanted to wait until I finished the costume before I posted anything well...
There's a lil 4 second clip and that's all I got,

I was rushed to put in on because of loosing light and then lost all the pics form the digital camera so I have to put it on again. It took about 2 hours to put it on and I learned a whole lot from it, I had to adapt some things on the mask aswell and learned some important things from that. Stay tuned.

Hey Gundam.. I've been meaning to ask. Can I get get some close up pics of Ollies lenses? Are they steel mesh? 1 layer? Any description would be appreciated.
