Homecoming Marvel's Spider-Man Costume!? - Part 7

[UltimateMarvel]

That costume design is exactly what I wanted since Spidey became part of the MCU. Pure perfection.

 

[Abudefduf]

Because they had to differentiate/break up the design from this:

....Oops, I mean this:

Stripes are a great addition to the design anyway imo.

I dunno. I think it already looks different enough from the previous ones even without the addition of the stripes.
Nah, this is probably just MS being MS, with their weird hate for simple and clean designs.

Can anyone please tell me where the arm pit webbing rumour originated from?

He was lanky and tall. He was comic book Peters height too. What do you mean weird?

That's the problem for me. I see Spider-Man as athletic looking lean body with average height.

Lanky and tall not the way i see. Actor is 1.80 m and he looks even taller due to his lanky body with long torso etc.

 

[UltimateMarvel]

Yeah, Garfield's physique was perfect for Spidey. He's basically modern 616 Peter.

Tom's physique matches Ultimate Peter's. t:

 

[Johnny-Oh]

Tobey's physique was 616 Spidey while Tom's is Ultimate Spidey

 

[harryoscop]

Tobey's physique was 616 Spidey while Tom's is Ultimate Spidey

In the suit, I'm not so sure about that:

Spoiler

Garfield is a lot closer to how Spider-Man's physique was drawn in the 616 from the 80s (McFarlane) to what we have now which is lanky and muscular, also helps that he's 5'10 which is comic Peter's height. Spider-Man looked bloated in SM3 and kind of stocky in SM2, he looked the best in SM1 imo.

 

[Spider-Sonic]

Are people seriously saying Maguire's build was more 616 than Garfield's? Wow, people will say anything to disregard Garfield's Spidey even when it doesn't make sense.

This 100%.

Here.

Great, thanks.

 

[PeterBenParker]

Wow, people will say anything to disregard Garfield's Spidey even when it doesn't make sense.

That's almost signature worthy. Yeah, Garfield's build was perfect for what I envision of Spider-Man and Tom's is quite good for the younger, Ultimate take.

 

[ernesth100]

Its sad Garfield gets hitted on the most. Cause he was the middle ground. But he'll always have my thanks for. giving me my Spidey fix.

In what world does Andrew's Spidey look like this:

Also wtf is that in the right picture Anyway I'm glad Tom doesn't look like slenderman, his physique is perfect for the new Spidey and he looks great in the suit even if it was completely CGI

 

[PeterBenParker]

And yet they still didn't get the front emblem 'comic book accurate', even the back logo isn't this:

Spoiler

It's more like this:

Which is fine, but not as good nor iconic as the big tick-looking design.

 

[harryoscop]

That's the point, Russos & Feige wanted the classic Romita design because that's the era they grew up with. I personally prefer the Ditko crab back spider to the tick anyway because I prefer Spidey to look less-friendly and more odd/weird

Also, front spider is the closest we've gotten to the comic version.

 

[Nicko-Ray]

@PBP, it's a blend of both!!! I like that it isn't exactly dead-on. It's really close.

I just love how the suit is so different from past series. Even the material. You can see it in the scene where Peter/Tom is on the floor. The costume designer said they wanted to suit to look less like the past movies and more of a "felt"-like fabric. I love changing it up like that.

Marvel's costume designer proved what I had been saying for years, that you can make a Spider-Man suit without burrowing elements from Raimi. Every time I use to bring this point up, people would say dumb crap like 'It'a Spider-Man suit of course they're going to be similar" argh, it's making me angry just thinking about it! It's like they were purposely trying not to see the finer details of thr suits like raised webbing and material, but nope, they atributed these design elements to the fact they're both Spidey suits, which was and is complete bull.

That's my gripe with the MCU suit too; both the back and front emblems don't really compliment each other.

They should either have:

1. The front MCU logo with the bold round tick
2. Or, replace the front logo with a more curved emblem to compliment the curved back emblem

The curved emblem could be more like these two:

So, option 1 would be this:

And option 2 would look like this:

Eh.

Also,front spider is the closest we've gotten to the comic version.

Close, but still so far.

Eh, they don't really fit together as well as they could have.

The material is also an issue I have with it. As much as some disliked the past series' textures and designs, they were done with the purpose to make the suit 'pop' and look natural. The CW suit just looks really animated.

Using Harry's image again as an example:

There's not really anything in the red to make it stand out, and the webbing is another complaint I have. You can see in that image that the black of the webbing isn't entirely filled in and it's far too thin, making the focus of the suit just a CG red and blue fest in action. He looked really animated against Cap, Bucky and Falcon.

The first TASM suit had the right idea as far as being something different. It was CGI in action just like CW and the previous suits, but it felt real (just like the previous suits). It rippled, the colors gave it oomph, the textures (as much as some disliked the basketball design) complimented it well, etc. etc. Everything about it worked.

The CW suit is apparently a physical suit with CGI added on and it really shows. Hopefully in Homecoming they actually make this suit for Tom to wear as opposed to giving him a SFX suit so they can edit it with CGI to match this design.

That's my gripe with the MCU suit too; both the back and front emblems don't really compliment each other.

Do you have a source on how the suit was made? I'm really curious to know how they went about Spidey's suit. I do agree that the CGI is very conspicuous, and can be really distracting and jarring in a lot of shots. I don't think there was one shot where it looked real or convincing, even when Peter/Tom was lying down after [BLACKOUT]having defeated Giant-Man[/BLACKOUT] the body looked extremely CGI.

It's sad in a way, because we've had real, practical suits in Spidey's previous 5 movies, yet we've resorted to CGI now. Spidey doesn't feel as tangible anymore, like he's still just a 'fantasy' within the MCU, filled with real heroes.

I think a lot of printed textures are getting over-done on some superhero costumes, so we wanted a simpler texture, more like a high tech cordura- something Tony Stark would have created that would be very sleek. I also wanted a fabric that was a little thicker for battle, less leotard-like as used on past suits, and that presented its own problems such as more wrinkles. With a short research and development period, that was our biggest challenge. There is a bit of CG help there, but there is definitely a physical suit and not a total CG character on the screen. As far as the details, we wanted the suit to have a retro feel, but it is still a Tony Stark generated suit, so the banding, boots and arms brought him a more modern, sleek hi-tech feeling. As for the color, we wanted Classic Spidey, but slightly more muted, but not dark. He is young and vibrant and new in the story, so we echoed that in the color.”
