Here's another one of Spider-Man's enemies: Tarantula! I never much cared for him in the comics, but I had to make him nonetheless. Used a Bullseye body and for the head, I modified a head from a 5-inch Zorro figure. When I saw the figure on a flea market, I knew right away that the head would be great for my Tarantula. Though, I didn't think about the fact that Zorro's mask covered his nose, while Tarantula's mask doesn't, so I had to cut it off and give him the nose of a Mr Fantastic, it worked out fine. Those ribbons on the back of his mask are from a 5-inch Psylocke figure. It was a pain to paint him, especially the insigna, but I really like the outcome and think it's a pretty cool figure. What do you guys think? Thanks for looking! ![]() |

Always liked Tarantula - and I'm a sucker for black n red color scheme, Zorro-style bandana and toe blades
Right on Guido!

P.S. The Rose and Chameleon were great too.
I envy you because of your all Spider-man series figures. They are all awesome.
Thanks!

Evan: Those pictures are from The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Master Edition v3.
I downloaded the whole thing from DC++
It has a whole lot of characters in it so it's great to use as reference pictures. But while some characters are great to look at to see details and such, others look like crud.
I always look through all the comics each character has appeared in to take out reference pictures, but those Handbook pictures are always a good start.
And as for somebody saying the character being "Queer" - the guys diehard machismo and the least fruity of spideys villains

You beat me to the punch, EVERY time!
It's still great though!
P.S Where do you get those pics of the characters standing there by themselves?
Excellent job!!
