That's really gross...which means it's really neat

This was an awesome idea. Making mine as I type (letting the latex dry!). This thing is already looking great and I haven't even painted it yet! I built a fairly big one to go with a giant spider prop that I have. Can't wait till it's done.

Thanks for the idea and walk-through!

Argh, sorry it took so long but I had to wait to get the finishing details done.


I'm displaying it with a giant spider and web and so I wanted it fairly big. I used 37 ping-pong balls by the end which shows the scale of the thing. I also used fluorescent green paint for the main body since Ill be displaying it under a black light. Since I don't have an airbrush anymore (thanks to my 6 year old monster), I had to free-hand with black spray paint for the highlights. Also, I was leery of dipping the webbing in latex just simply because I figured with my luck I would ruin the whole thing so I just Super 77ed the webbing on.

Ultimately I like yours a lot better but figure this will work just fine for what I'm using it for. Thanks for a great idea. Can't wait to get this thing up tomorrow!

That looks HUGE.. I think it turned out great!!!

Nice I made a crude one this Halloween (2008) in my spider scene, I will now make others like yours noce job. How did the green look under the black light? I put 2" spiders on tons of 2" spiders on mine that really put the finishing touches on it. I cant wait to try your way.

The paint looked great with the Chauvet blacklight cannon. I also glued some smaller spiders on the outside before hanging it (which you can see in the second pic). Halloween was a hit all around this year!

That looks great! The green did very well with the blacklights that i used also.
The latex soaked webbing realy popped off the sack under the black light.

So nasty, so gross, and now I must make one cause that's just awesome. Great job.

man i love this! has anyone put a cheap Skeleton in one for effect? not sure you would see it threw all the latex, but thought i would ask. where does one buy a large anout of latex buy the way?
