Custom Spiderman Figure, Suggestions, criticisms etc.

Posted in Custom Workstation

So I'm new to the custom game and really have few figures which I've bought that I was willing to experiment with and potentially ruin as these things don't run cheap.

Basically I was in the process of creating a armored Spiderman from this Marvel Select Spiderman recently repaired. Anyways I started with painting all of the blue to a basic lamplight black. Before I painted the red silver, I noticed the similarity to the Red Lantern design and decided to leave it for now. I added an old fodder batman cape and the arm accessories from an electric red Supes.

Basic Recipe:
Spiderman figure
Paint the blue to black and seal.
Added fodder cape and electric arm accessories from DC Universe Classics Superman Red.

So while I think it looks "OK", it doesn't feel complete especially when compared to some of the other Spiderman customs (see green lantern spidey at figure realm etc.) Any suggestions on what it needs or criticisms are what I'm looking for or it even looks close to a red lantern in the first place or if it might be better to just forget about it and go to armored Spidey. Agreed its not the most inspired figure but perhaps it could be.

Thanks for any help, appreciate it.
