Making the perfect Spidey suit

Not open for further replies.
Here's something to spark some fresh interest maybe.
At one point I was considering Silk screening these prints (and still might one day) but then I learned that the costumes for SM 3 weren't printed this way.

I remember I was literally days away from buying all the equipment and inks after doing months of research and then I learned that it was used for the last move...

Silk screen method is however the best method for boldness of color, up close the costume just shines compares to other methods. It's just too darn fickle to produce. Here's a guide I produced at the time.

 
This is part most people dont see. Getting the colours right isnt as simple as you'd think. The colours you see on the screen of your computer is rarely the same as what is printed. This is the part that adds to the cost when creating new costume designs. Nice picture.
For those of you that has actually made a suit and I mean starting from scratch mastering photoshop to get the right colors for a spidey suit, I give you guys alot of credit even if your colors didnt come out right the first several times.

Oh my god, Spidermilk
I think it's just disgusting how you're being treated in this thread.
It's like you're a nerd in highschool with all the popular kids messing with ya, or something.
It's not like you're gonna sell them your blood, sweat and tears right?
Anyway... I hope things will work out:)

I agree. I come to this site to get ideas and solve problems to make my own suit.
I don't troll the boards just waiting for someone to put in the hard work and then get daddy's credit card.

Chill out guys :grin:
 
First of all and foremost, I would like to appologize to the Board and its members. I will try my best to make it right between the 2 board members who I owe things to and never delivered... I also want to deeply Apologize to Taylor, Who I considered a friend until this happened, pls forgive me, I am trying my best to recover from my recent loss, I had everything I owned pulled right out from under me, I had my bank account sucked dry,
I really never meant to take anything from you, I never saw this coming.

My ex fiancee took me for everything, Vehicles, Money, House everything took my son from me, My job was took from me. Destroyed my projects I was working on. I had everything tore from me..... I know you guys Don't like stories but pls bear with me let me explain, I know its long over due but pls just open your minds and heart and listen.




I was engaged for almost five years, was suppose to be getting married
December 31st my birthday 2008. I Came home work,
Placed my key in the lock to open the door, but it would not fit. Like a
Idiot I tried about 3 more keys thinking I was just stressed out from a
long days work. I thought my mind was playing tricks on me, so I called my
fiancee and she told me I would have to wait til she got home, to fix the
problem. I waited for 2 hours out on the steps. I would have just tried to
slide my card in and unlock the door but it had a dead bolt. Finally she
came home she told me to unload the back of the Explorer so while I was
walking to unload the vehicle she came up the stairs and unlocked the door
and went in. I went to open the Explorer door and it was locked, so I went
up the stairs to find out the door was locked again. I knocked on the door
she came to the door and said she was sorry, it was over, that she had
found another guy, and she had changed her whole life. Now by this time I
was tired dirty from working, hungry and sleepy. I went back to my car and
called her phone, during the conversation she said she had a beep. Next
thing I know 3 Police cars pull up, I didn't think much of it police was
always there at the complex over our neighbors and things but this time
they were there for me..... Now where I am from, You just don't do that.
Anyways that night I lost my fiancee, my little boy got took away from me
and my whole life was destroyed, all I had left was my job. I slept in my
car that night and went to work the next morning I noticed my boss was
laughing at something when I told him, It was like he didn't care we had
been friends for 5 years best friends.. So as the day grew darker with hurt
for me, I decided to pull up our clients phone contacts, from the company
phone, to my surprise my Fiancee's number was on there. I quickly closed it
out, and my phone rang it was a mutual friend of mine and my Fiancee she
told me my boss was trying to have an affair with my Fiancee, long story
short, I worked all those years in vain, for nothing, I had the police the next day go to my apartment so I could get my clothes Championship title belts, Trophies, and my Spidey projects, Only thing I got back was my Clothes and only half of them the rest of my pants had the crotch cutt out she literally took scissors to them. My spidey projects had been destroyed, all my hard resin frames had been broken. My Title belts had been took to the train tracks and ran over cut into. The worst thing was having my 3 year old screaming daddy as the cops took me out the door as I was going out the door I asked the cop with tears in my eyes if I could tell my son bye and that I loved him. He said yes I could, But Melinda would not let me, the cop looked at her and Told her it would be in her best interest to let me see my son and tell him bye. That was the last time I would get to talk or see my son for 172 days. Worst thing about it I went to the bank and she had took everything from me all was in the account was $1.05 She had went and drawed out all the money that I had had for projects, everything. The next few days I would end up losing my 2003 Ford Explorer, Dodge Daytona, Chevy Camaro. I had to start from the beginning with nothing, The next day I went to jail for class 6 felony unauthorized use of a vehicle, They were my vehicles, but where her name was also on the titles, thats what killed my case. All my ebay accounts had been destroyed all my feedback was gone, my msn messenger had been messed up she had killed every contact info, I had.
I spent 8 Days in jail in maximum lockup because of where I have pro boxing license, thats where they sent me by the time I got out I had nothing. I had no cars no nothing no family around the area, I slept out on the streets for 3 days, I was determined to stay in the area on account of my Son. before I went to court, I stumbled on a way to prove I was innocent of everything, I went to the DMV and had the carbon copies of the titles pulled up to each of my vehicles, showed when I first bought them, they were in my name only then. After $4,600 in lawyer fees, which I had to take and borrow money from credit union just to pay lawyer fees, I was found innocent. I never deserved this, now I have to back pay child support, even tho I lived there, she said we never lived together. I know this is a boring thing, but this is what I went through, I loved this site, I loved sharing all the info, I had learned about making the greatest costume of all, I loved the hobby, I lost some of my best buds cause of this, and if The board decides not to forgive me I understand and I will still refund your guys money might be in payments, but im not a dirty person. But I guess its all my fault. (I tried to make a who-re into a housewife).
Now I have to Start a Whole new career, I have had 14 years in Martial Arts, I am a
former pro boxer, I thought about writing a book it would be called Who the Hell is Ernie Shell.

That sure is a different story from what I heard..

! I thought you were dead and gone forever !:wow:

Quite some time ago I was talking to one of the guys you sold to but never delivered...
He said that he got on MSN one night, and you were on.. so he tried to see what was going on. Upon trying to talk to you, he was told that "this is Ernie's brother, Ernie is dead. He was shot in a gang shooting."

He sent me the convo... I think I've got it around here somewhere.. I didn't want to say anything cause I wasn't sure about it. But I guess now we know!
 
That was my ex she and her bf had all my computer info, They had access to my accounts... This is a new 1 to me tho....

I have had some requests wanting to see the Symbiote frames... and some more on the printing process I went through..

That really sucks dude...But you guys wernt even married.. how did you allow her to get acess to all your accounts and everything even if you were living together, could you imagine if the both of you would have gotten married without her telling you that she was sleeping around with another guy and then years down the line you end up finding out that would really suck.. but like they say what ever is hidden in darkness will be exposed in the light...I know that Long term relationships or long Engaments dont last long because then you get tired of each other and end up breaking up I dont know Ernie maybe she just got tired of you or something..Im sorry to tell you this but I remember when you displayed a photo of or EX Fiancee about 1 year ago around this time of the month posting this comment:

"Well I can prove im not sleeping with any board members.
melinda69ev0.jpg
here is what im sleeping with. lol

34C Trust me very nice."

with a photo of your Fiancee which im sure you took out I would have too
but that girl looked like a W*O** no affense...Im terriably sorry for you and all your looses including your Spidey projects if you had any or if you were using someone elses and displaying them as your own which was exactly why alot of people had doubt in you because you were displaying photos of Spidey projects that other people had made..I just wish you would have been more alittle more clear on what was going on because the last comments you posted were very unclear when you told me that you were working on my order and stuff which was more than a year.. You know Ernie forget about my $250 that I paid you for my order 1 year ago..just make sure that when you collect other peoples money you make a commitment to give them what they ordered and not walk away leaving them empty handed without a email or note.... because what ever you do unto others it comes back to you 10 times harder..Take care buddy and I hope you gain back for your looses and find a girl that is not going to use you for your stuff and likes you for who you are and not what you have.

Hey is any one else having this problem? It could be something to do with the server maybe.. Speterman3 do you think you could post or send me a screen shot of the x? thanks

Yep..red X on the PC.... but just to confuse the matter more.. I can see them on my PDA. Weird.
 



So here it is, in this photo was some of the many different routes of printing I experimented with, many different types of Lycra and Spandex blends with different inks and printers.
 
Hey Man I Appreciate that but at least let me try to make it up to you.

I only had yours and Taylors project that wasn't finished. I tell you what I am the only one who has some of the screen used material they used in the film let me send you some of the stuff to show you the visibility, how clear it is. You be the judge on it. I will regain the respect of the board back, I owe it to my brothers.

I let her steal my heart, then my wallet.... I lost my license on account of getting 18 offenses, I was trying my car I had built out, it was like the Knight rider car back in the 80s, I was going 125 in a 55mph... I was just trying the engine just to see if it was tuned right... anyways where I had no license I Bought a Camaro and had to put her name on the title with mine, same as the explorer and the dodge. That's how I lost my cars... Next Mistake I made was we had a joint bank account for Ebay.... That's what happened..... Anyone heard from jester? I owe him a good a$$ kicking.... lol Nah I love how he used my face shell in his awesome project.... Hey Jester Did you give me and suitmaker any credit on that shell? I guess I have alot of reading to catch up to lol......

Your stuff looks great man, but if my memory doesnt fail me, only parts of the costume were silk screened. Arms, chest, thighs in sections etc....

Interesting how the webbing looks a solid grey color!! Only looks dark on the sides due to the shadows.

It's for the eye pieces:)
 
Yes I know... It has great vision... and I recommend using this without plastic lens, it never foggs up and it contributes to breathing. This is not a metal mesh of no sort. its very grainy, it bends and contours perfect for the frame..
