    Custom Spiderman / Suit redesign

    So Captain Amego got me started a while back on creating my own Custom Mego Characters. This was the first suit I designed...



    The head on there is an original head. I have an altered Sculpt with larger eyes, but currently it is packed away in boxes after a move. What do you guys think?

    I really like the spider and how the suit came out. Suit looks great over all.

    are these silk screen suits?
    if so do you sell them?

    if you can play with the design would look even better if you can match the webs on top of the spider on the suit to the design of the webs from the mego spidys webs in his head. This way if you paint the head -it would match up perfect with the suit.

      Yeah, pretty much all my suits are are silk screened. I had wanted to learn how to do it for a long time and this project was the tipping point to get me to learn. But yes, if anyone is interested, I would certainly be willing to sell them. I plan to make new screens for it though and I had a new idea on how to improve upon the design. Currently I am planning my wedding so I am not sure when I would be read to sell them. I will update the post however when I am at that point

      As for the painting of the head, I would love to paint the webs on his head. I have thought about it in the past but never really tired because, while I have a steady hand, it just seems like a really daunting task. Would be interesting to try though...

      Anyway, thanks

          It is not hard to do to paint his head - The lines are there already.

          if you are going to change the screen anyway - maybe you can line the suit webs up top, to match the bottom of the webs on the neck.
          this way the head flows right down to the suit. Congrats on the wedding by the way. yeah maybe if you have time after. It would be great. I would be willing to take a few. Here is a pic
