Almost Done With Hobie’s Guitar! This Is My First Time Making A Prop Out Of EVA Foam, And I’m Really

OMFG I AM SO EXCITED TO SEE HOW THIS TURNS OUT

Y'all the sketching is happeningggg I don't wanna do the pins though they take years of my life😒

((Credit to @spideypunx for the reference thanks for letting me use it hun it's awesome))

I’ve been working on an upgraded version of Spider-Punk’s pants, and I’m so happy that I got to debut them at Rhode Island Comic Con this last weekend!

Shoutout to @hobiesdump for helping me figure out what some of the patch designs were! Couldn’t have done it without ya :)

A Spider-Punk PSA.

A Spider-Punk PSA

I’m leaving TikTok, here’s the last thing I had to say on that platform.

Don’t give up the fight. Do not comply in advance. And remember, what would Hobie do?

Video transcript (or at least this was the blurb I wrote for it, so there may be some minor differences):

[replying to a comment saying “Did you make the guitar that’s so cool what?! Could you do a video showing that off because I actually love that so much :0 /nf”] “Yeah, sure, I’d love to! In Across the Spider-Verse, Spider-Punk’s design cycles through a bunch of different color palettes and textures. One of those is newsprint. In the movie, the newspaper clippings seem to be random, there’s even coupons and stuff. But I thought it would be fitting to use clippings from articles about protests and other political news, to sort of pay homage to Hobie’s politics.

So we’ve got everything from the Freedom Riders, the AIDS crisis, the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, the Stonewall Riots, Stop Cop City, the Me Too movement, Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire, the Kent State shooting, the killing of Freddie Gray, and so on.

The neck of the guitar is made from photos from those news articles, including the Gaza solidarity encampments, the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests—that’s the Minneapolis precinct burning, and the 2017 Women’s March.

The guitar strap in checkered black-and-white has meaning as well, the pattern is known as “two-tone” in ska, the music genre, and it symbolizes racial unity, black and white together.

You can turn the tuners and flip the switch, it’s fun to fidget with!

The stickers and their placement is all based on the official character art, and those I got from this post by Jake Panian, who worked on Spider-Punk’s design for Across the Spider-Verse.

And I did the same thing for the spikes on his mask. UnitedHealthcare CEO getting shot… Yeah, this was a really fun project, and I’m really proud of it, and I’m excited to show it off!”

A closer look at the newsprint guitar I made for my Spider-Punk cosplay! This was really fun to research and put together, and I hope you folks like it too :)

Noir: “Can you take that down? This is very inappropriate.”

Hobie: “Suck my dick from the back!”

Noir: “Oh lord, I haven’t done that since 1912…”
