    Heres a guy I never thought I'd make, as his design is like the 90's incarnate, but the more cool customs I saw of him, the more I wanted to make one myself. He was actually a lot more work than he looks too.

    Head, Shoulders, Torso down to the belly button, Elbows, Half of the gloves, and Hands - HML Black Spidey

    Biceps, Forearms, upper half of gloves, Torso below the belly button, crotch, and legs - ML Mr. Fantastic

    Feet - Dr. Strange (cause they were bigger than Mr. Fs)

    I knew I wanted to use Reeds lower body because of the great 90 degree hips he has, but for the life of me, it did not want to connect to Spideys upper body, so I had to bust out the dremel and bisect them both at the belly button. Once they were connected, the arms looked too big, so I mish-mashed parts around under they were short enough. Sculpted his sweat shirt parts, eyes, belt, web shooters, and straps on his ankles, painted him up.

    Great work I really like the Scarlet Spidy design. I think your work makes him feel a bit older than the comic version but that isn't a bad thing at all. Great work! I'm a 3.75 guy for G.I. Joe/Indiana Jones crossover display purposes mainly so I hope they eventually do one in that size (Universe I believe is what they call it)

    Web of Kain was my first spidey story set I read, and I always thought that the scarlet spider was cooler than SM himself. Great work!
