Here we have a Marvel Legends Symbiote Spiderman styled after that 12" Medicom Rah Spidey they came out with. The alternate 'mid-phase' head they included kicked so much ass, I decided to give it a shot in a smaller scale. I used a Fearsome Foes spiderman (same body as the McFarlane version with the wall) and sculpted over all the webbing, then sanded him down. I retooled the head and eyes a bit, then got to painting. Base coat black, then it was airbrush time. Wow. No seriously, I didn't know shading with an airbrush could turn out this cool, that is until I saw DD's stuff! So here we have my first 'real' shading job, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The mid-phase head is a He-Man head that's sculpted over partially with Apoxie Sculpt. The whole custom appears simple, yet took me two days to do, hah!

Spider-Man got his black costume in the Secret Wars and Spiderman #300 back in the 80's.
