Spider-Man 2099. Our first complete custom. What do you guys think?

jamesmruddy · 09-06-2010, 04:37 PM

Dang that looks great. Once again Hasbro really needs to hire the talent here. At least pay attention to whats being done.

Freaking sweet!

Xcaliber037 · 09-06-2010, 06:08 PM

Thanks guys. The red fine lines were tedious but he was a lot of fun to make. He's going up on eBay soon if anyone is interested. I'm spiderman037 on eBay.

Looks good but you forgot his webs.

Galaxy Ranger · 09-06-2010, 06:48 PM

Awesome job!!! This is one custom I have held off on because I don't think I'd be able to pull it off! Well done and I am jealous!

ludovicotek · 09-06-2010, 06:53 PM

Sweet. Came out great. I love it.

Xcaliber037 · 09-06-2010, 08:47 PM

Yea you know I thought about his webs but his recent appearance in shattered dimensions he didn't have it so I kinda went with it. Looks a little cleaner than having mesh hanging on him. I don't know of a meterial loose enough to really get a good web representation. My wife and i think possibly tadded lace. Any suggestions?

I'd say that would be a good call.

Awesome!

Morzilla · 09-07-2010, 09:26 AM

awesome work!!!!!

Xcaliber037 · 09-07-2010, 11:39 AM

Alright guys. I'm gong to Joan Fabrics to see about the webbing. Since it's for a Spider-Man figure do I still get to keep my man card? I'll let you all know if it looks good or not. I was never really a fan of string hanging off a figure.

irondestro1975 · 09-08-2010, 02:05 PM

AWESOME....love it

Iron Man · 09-08-2010, 03:29 PM

I love the colors!

scottmurdock · 09-08-2010, 04:32 PM

*high five* What kind of paint did you use?

Xcaliber037 · 09-08-2010, 06:15 PM

Thanks! All testors model masters acrylic. We had to use a lot of thin coats to get that shade of blue. Currently trying several cuts of fabric to get a proper web look. Soon as that's done I'll upload picks then it's off to eBay. We have bills to pay!

Xcaliber037 · 09-09-2010, 08:07 PM

Quick update: the material we found Rocks! It's kinda hard to work with but it turned out awesome. I think you guys are going to like it. I'll have to wait till Monday for the Canon rebel I borrowed to take good pics.

scarecrow · 09-09-2010, 08:24 PM

You knocked it out of the park. Fantastic job on your first custom, man.

SlayerDave · 09-09-2010, 09:32 PM

That is awesome, nice work.

Excelsior07 · 09-10-2010, 10:18 AM

The colors are amazingly spot-on! Congrats, can't wait to see what you did with the webs.

Xcaliber037 · 09-13-2010, 02:20 PM

Hey guys. Camera is on its way so look for updated photos with the webbing this evening. Thanks again for all the compliments!

Xcaliber037 · 09-13-2010, 07:11 PM

Here ya go! What do you guys think? This is the best material we could find that even resembles a web at this scale. I personally prefer it without them but it's starting to grow on me. Either way it's not for me. Enjoy and It'll be going up on eBay soon!

Xcaliber037 · 09-15-2010, 07:22 PM

Ok Spidey is up on eBay! Item number 120622224108. Thanks again for all the compliments!

Xcaliber037 · 09-23-2010, 03:47 PM

I just turned international bidding on for those of you not in the states. Good luck guys. Hate to see him go but someone will give him a good home with lots of shelf space to roam.

Morzilla · 09-24-2010, 05:59 AM

Congrats on the webbing, even though I agree with you. He does look a bit better without the webbing, I found one (Toy Biz) a while back for like $.25 cents and this one doesn't have any webbing but it still looks good. Although the webbing does give him a bit of more authentic!

Good luck on the sell and hope to see more!!!
