So if you read the novelization of the original Spider-Man movie, he got his suit tailor made by the same guy who made his wrestling suit. This means that during the entire rami trilogy, there was this one tailor that knew who Spider-Man was. Yet he kept silent, respect.
Some cosplayers have made their own movie quality costumes, so I never found it hard to believe that someone going out every day to be Spider-Man would put significant effort into making a good costume.
@@kijimunaa true, you wouldn't expect a 14-17 yr old kid to be able to lay down 1k+ dollars in a suit. I'd expect something like how miles' suit was originally, either being a cosplay suit or normal clothes and just the mask.
Given the plethora of different costumes he's made over the years, I think Peter Parker just has this fashion designer side to him that he wasn't necessarily able to flex when he started out due to a lack of resources. Or maybe the spider just passed on an innate knowledge of how to spin a thread or something.
I feel like this particular costume fits a Peter Parker who’s just starting out. He was making an original suit with no reference so it would make sense to look a little wonky and unprofessional. He’s even canonically known for having a crappy costume lol. But you’re right, there are cosplayers who have made movie level suits, but I feel like that fits an older and more experienced Peter
At least in the original comics, he would frequently have to re-sew his suit after fights so we can maybe guess his original one was crappy and he got better and better at sewing
If the comics took place in the real world I kinda wonder how DIY and crappy it looked swinging around in the beginning? And if over the years it started to look more professional like Hollywood does? Especially with him being a science wiz crafting this suit gave him more ideas over time.
You'd think after resewing rips and tears in the costume it would start to resemble a patchwork monstrosity. Just so many stiched up seems. Not to mention the material he would have to get for parts that were just completely ripped away. Gotta imagine after a while it would start looking like spideys suit of many colors.
@Cheeki Breeki Well to be fair in the comics it's a multipiece outfit ao there's more practicality. In later movies they give him sneaker like soles that are still less clunky than real shoes so he's not running in what's basically his socks. Why fingerless?
haha thats actually hilarious bro. i entered crippling depression and havnt smiled since 2 years ago. your comment savde me ` 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 thanks man 💪I
It's funny but I've been wearing a (homemade) Spiderman mask (when I go to places that say wear a mask - fortunately since moving that is not many places). Usually no one bats an eye but I did have the clerk at one store tell me "doc ock went that way". lol. Nice to see that even during a crisis people still have a sense of humor.
Soda 🇵🇷 Take nylon 6 and 10. Put nylon 6 first in a cup then put on it nylon 10. Then you should use a tool to grab the liquid because it is a toxic chemical. And yes a tool.. cause when you grab it it turns into solid. It can hold heavy things like a real spiderman web. Have fun.
Spit 5 times in a bowl, add a little amount of water and go camping in somewhere with a lot of spiders squish one spider then add it to the mix and there you have it web fluid you can use to web up shit.
2 things: First, I have a theory on how Peter is able to put together such spiffy looking costumes from whatever material is available to a 15-year old kid with no budget. Basically, Peter has super-human sewing abilities. Much as the Spider's compound eyes translated into "Spider-Sense" for Peter's human form, the Spider's natural ability to make intricate patterns with its webbing translated into a natural super-human sewing ability for peter. So, with just scrap laying around the school gymnasium and what Peter knew Aunt May wouldn't notice missing from her sewing kit... BAM! Multi-million dollar superhero suit that would have taken a team of the best fashion designers months to perfect. Second, for more comic book authentic eyes, I recommend using plastic knitting canvas. When it's close to your eyes, it's pretty easy to see through. It's easy to cut into the shape you need, and cheap if you mess it up. Also, because it's got holes in it already so it's easy to sew to a costume. (It's also easy to hold pieces of it in your eyes like dual monocles for characters that have solid-color non-human eyes.) You can even get it in just about any color. I've used blue for an Optimus Prime costume, White for a Scarlet Spider costume (appropriate for Spider-Man too, of course) and red for a generally demony thing.
Actually that’s about right my grandfather was actually good friends with the person who gave Stan Lee the idea for Spider-Man. Now however I can assure you the Spider-Man you know of has fallen very very far off the beaten path of its original conception. But Peter doesn’t just have a spiders abilities he has their natural instincts as well from Webb spinning to creating very intricate and complex designs. Which yes translates into sowing and also increases his intelligence ten fold. A lot of people think the original Spider-Man was weak but no Peter was just a boy when he got his powers and as he got older he got stronger faster and smarter. And he obtained whole power sets that they never used for him to this day. Spider-Man is supposed to have a healing factor rivaling Wolverine’s. His strength surpasses hulk’s in his full prime. His sight is better than an eagle pin point laser accurate. And yes he was supposed to have organic webs from his wrists and his ankles. His suit wasn’t just scraps either he actually made his suit from his uncle Ben’s old Vietnam army uniform it was very durable. And when torn Peter used his silk to repair it making it ten times stronger. And his lenses were military grade goggles.
Fun fact: The original script for the Sam Raimi Spider-Man movie actually explained how did he made the suit and it's almost identical to yours. By buying two body suits (blood red and midnight blue), cuts them and stitches them together, cuts out large oval shaped white mesh for the eyes and glues them on the mask, and uses a marker to draw the webs and chest logo. No million dollar bodysuit, no sharp, slick lenses or logos, no silver webbing, just directly from the comics and practical. Why was that cut?
I love how someone actually made a video on this. As a kid who wanted to draw a good spider-man, drawing the details with the infinite lines always got so tedious! After learning that drawing straight lines are hard and sewing them in on an actual costume is impossible for a kid, seeing all those expensive costumes in the movies were so confusing.
Spiderman homecoming did it best I think. Before Tony Stark gave him the high tech suit, he just threw together clothes he had like a hoodie and jogging pants. The eye lenses he made were pretty high tech, but considering Peter Parker is pretty much a genius and can make his own web fluid, it makes sense.
Probably the only flaws I have with the homemade suit is peter didnt cut out the pattern on the red parts, had fingerles gloves and didnt draw the web pattern on the suit. Other than that I think the homemmade outfit is the best mcu spidey suit
I have watched this so many times and yet I have no desire to actually make a suit. If I went cosplaying, I'd probably take the easy way out. 1. Buy red boots, gloves, and balaclava. 2. Buy mirrored goggles. 3. Use sharpie to draw webs on mask, gloves and boots. 4. Draw spider on old sweater chest, with no webs. 5. Sew on blue fabric for the back and add red spider. 6. Go to a Con and say it's based on the 60's Spider-Man cartoon.
In The Amazing comics Peter did say that he was "bad" at sewing. But he did learn eventually, and he did made some decent bucks from his TV show so I'm guessing he had access to halfway decent materials. I rewatched Spider-Man, and noticed that there was a large time gap between the wrestling match and getting his new suit. Probably a few months since it shows him graduating high school. He definitely took his time to work on the suit. I mean if a cosplayer can make a decent looking costume within a tight budget, imagine what someone with Spider powers can do. In TASM, Peter orders a plain textured wetsuit and sports boots online and it's briefly shown to paint over it with homemade stencils.
That's honestly super humbling and cool to hear. I never thought I could have such a big affect on the fandom but I've seen dozens of suits built with my method over the years!
@@GodzillaMendoza you’ve helped me out so much man. I made 3 homemade suits using your design and now I make lenses for all my suits using your other video. I strive for comic accuracy on all my suits and I wouldn’t be able to do any of it without your videos.
Man, to be young, enthusiastic, and poor again lol. I made a Scarlet Spider from scratch years ago (using sunglasses for lenses, too!) But nothing will compare to the time and effort I put into my Boba Fett costume. Watching this video brings back some serious memories. I really respect the amount of work you put into this costume and video. The Korn music takes me back, too.
I remember my grandma sewing me an entire spiderman suit from scratch when I was young. I appreciate how much effort that must have taken a lot more now that I've seen this. Especially since she sewed fucking raised webbing into it.
Agreed, just buy a hoodie, rid off the sleeves, get one of those complete red suit, get a sharpie(to draw the spider emblem), and push the lens out of some sun glasses.
@@Midnight_Narrations But there is also an official webcomic linking Amazing spider-man 1 with the second, in which they do not show Gwen Stacy making the suit at Oscorp but imply that she gave Peter the idea to change his suit, and design ideas. like big eyes and a friendlier appearance were his ideas.
I love projects like this where you have to work with limitations. Instead of it being a professional doing something with all the right tools and in all the right ways it’s an average Joe, putting something together the best way he can with anything he can find. This is why people love Spider-Man and why I love this channel.
it's actually roughly as difficult as this. cutting a hoodie, drawing a specific spider, cutting up a mask, gluing mesh to goggles, etc etc. it's pretty hard.
Somewhere back along the line (anyone can research this) in the comics, it was hinted at that, along with being able to stick to walls, having been granted the proportional strength of a spider, and being able to do whatever a spider can, the spider that bit Peter had also granted him a kind of weaving ability, which gave him a better knack for sewing than he'd had before. Yeah, I know it sounds insane, but I know I read it somewhere.
This was such an interesting video, I never knew how simple sewing was and how making a Spider-Man wasn't as difficult as it seemed. I'll eventually give this a try once I get the resources to make my own suit. Thank you for this tutorial mate, hope this was a fun process.
In the novelization of spiderman 2002, they say that he met up with someone who worked for the wrestling place he went to and got a suit designed for him.
Bruh, hats off to you. I have a sewing machine and a mother with knowledge of making clothes, and I still feel anxious over using the darn thing. The fact that you were able to make a Spider-Man suit (and with only a $100 budget) is admirable.
I love how passionate you are about Spider-Man as much as a fellow superfan such as myself. Your videos are great and im glad to be subscribed. Keep it up buddy and greetings from Buffalo NY. Merry Christmas!
In TASM 2, Peter got his suit from Gwen as a gift because Peter’s first suit got damaged and you can find out about this with context or in some deleted scenes
First Video I ever saw of your channel, really useful, Ima make this suit for this Halloween and for San Diego Comic Con and for Spider Man Far From Home
Tim West You'll get a laugh out of this then. My friend and I priced out all the components of the homemade suit from Homecoming. It actually costs MORE to make that one than the kinda suit I did in the video. It also has other problems. My friend said it was incredibly hot in that suit in the daytime after he made it and he overheated multiple times, which he's never experienced in one of the spandex suits. The other problem is that it's baggy which makes it a liability in a fight (bad guys grabbing the hood and choking him) and the suit also isn't as aerodynamic so swinging would be harder. Plus the fingerless gloves make Peter leave prints everywhere that police or otherwise could use to identify him. So basically that suit is less practical in every way except that it's faster to make.
nice work, i never did like the idea that the cinematic spidermen (except for toms) could make such a deadly suit, and they never clarified how they did it.. i wish they had something like yours tbh, would be more realistic.
I just sorta hot-glued my whole suit together and used puffypaint for the raised webbing. A web-backpack, bike pump, refillable air tank, some tubes, and a battery powered hot glue gun does wonders for convincing web-shooters, by the way. You just gotta be sure to have a patch of heat-proofing on your wrists and palms.
Why do people feel like Peter Parker, a person with a genius level IQ and who built his own webshooters, wouldn't be able to sew? LOVED THE VIDEO BTW !!!
So Excited im pretty sure that he said in his ultimate Spider-Man walkthrough that he thought that it gave the impression that Pete wasn't smart enough to make his own costume, so he dislikes it slightly.
Kept going back to watch this video, along with different ones, very helpful! I'm not even done because I don't feel like getting gloves, my procrastination at it's finest.
You're awesome!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for this!!! You are too cool for having done this mine would have been in stage 2 development for years if I even tried to start 🤦♀️
GodzillaMendoza yeah but if you're going to try that, I'd advise using a lot of red nail polish for the web's. it'll probably show up better than red marker.
I think the easiest suit of all to put together would probably be Scarlet Spider. Thinking about that design now, it makes perfect sense that Ben Reilly would build something like that with his limited funds. It's simple, warm and easy to repair. It's basically just hobo Spider-Man.
For the webs on the outfit: If you want it to be simple and easy, I suggest going with the Spectacular Spider-Man route and having as few web lines as possible.
It's really cool that it's actually doable and it doesn't look that bad either, although I believe that Spider-Man's actual costume isn't a one-piece suit, the mask, gloves, boots, shirt and legging are all separate pieces. Which I believe would be easier to sew and all, and it wouldn't require any zipper.
10:45 yeah i guess thats why people would believe an impostor that its actually spiderman cuz of how bad and doable the costume actually would be irl if made diy
My man! Good job, it actually looks really good. Can’t wait if you are planning on making web fluid, but I do have to warn that none of the clouds or compounds are actually strong enough to web around when I did a look around the...(wait for it)... ‘web’ (Da-dum)!
When I made my own suit I used clear plastic and swimsuit insides. (which are white with big enough holes to see through from the inside.) for the cloth part I cut holes big enough to see through and glued the eye pieces on.
