There is no truer bonding experience than duct taping your significant other 😆

[@pocketfightr9755]

As a fellow cosplayer whom this showed up randomly in my suggestions; I appreciate this video GREATLY. I've been putting off trying to figure out how to do a female to male muscle suit for quite a long time. I've been wanting to cosplay Cat Noir from Miraculous and the Iron Spider suit for some time. Maybe now this will motivate me to do more than just gather materials for the builds.

man, the potential cosplays simply by having a muscle suit

[@ev.8972]

oh, dear lord, I'm here for this content, I ran into the fridge full force when the original spiderman came out ( I was 5 at the time chill). Made my mom think I killed myself but I but learned that I indeed didn't have spidy powers, sad and weird for everyone.

[@rachelmaksy]

😂😂😂😂😂😂❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@RubyEmbers26]

This turned out so beautifully amazing! The legs and pecs reaaaally sell it and you really do look like a stalky, fit Peter. I also appreciate the mention of binder safety. I’m ftm myself and have one from gc2b as well. This is downright astounding! Edit: another thing I’ve found from the spidey cosplayers I follow on insta- it’s all about the face shells! It’ll round out the nose and keep the spandex off your lips and you can take it off with the mask so you still get that Peter underneath! Forewarning, I’m told they’re very sweaty lol.

[@AutumnSun140]

[@rachelg9873]

The unknown underbelly of the jazz community. The illicit and illegal razzle dazzle.

[@Duskkit]

And when I got stuck in buffering for like a minute, it was paused with the captions saying "because I have no idea how to sew". xD Not even a mistake on the part of the caption generator, just a wrong stopping point, but equally hilarious. (The full onscreen caption was actually "suit myself because I have no idea how to sew" but it hardly matters.)

[@nishthajain2793]

Do it

[@xiola]

Word of advice to newbs making duct tape dress forms: People used to just stuff these with newspaper or upholstery stuffing and it works just fine! Sure it's sliiightly heavier, but it's cheap and won't make a mess. Old newspapers are free and plentiful if you ask around! As long as you don't store the dress form in a damp closet (which you shouldn't do with fabric either), there's nothing wrong with this option. Upholstery stuffing is best to get in bulk because you'll need a lot of it; don't get the expensive stuffing from a chain fabric or craft store that's meant for stuffed animals and pillows; if you search a little you may be able to find the much cheaper coarser upholstery-grade stuff in bulk. If you are a person who still collects too many plastic bags, they make great stuffing as well! :)

[@mhschiller714]

10/10, so good! I laughed so hard throughout so much of this video (especially "Too Sexy" in the suit) 😂

[@marendelune5663]

From Mary Jane to Spiderman. That's so fricking awesome! What if MJ secretly was Spiderman all the time?! Mindblown :D

[@MissMoodyMoony]

if you're going to carve foam in the future I recommend getting an electric carving knife. It's makes things a lot faster and gives a smoother end result.

[@danlotroth9231]

Hotbwire cutters are also great, also works on set foamsvas well

Hahaha YES 😂🙈🙈

[@readmachine18]

Rachel, this is honestly one of my absolute FAVORITE videos you've ever made--it's great, you're great, and plz keep doing whatever you're passionate about cuz it's super entertaining! (Also, I 1000% relate about wanting to be Spiderman as a kid 😂👍)

[@1AhsokaTano4]

I've been wanting to do a male cosplay of my own, but I've been insecure because I don't have the pshycial build for the character. This has given me so much confidence! I think I'm going to do it now! 😀

[@britischenadligen3760]

I never would've thought I'd watch 17 minutes of Spiderman related stuff *but boy that was fun*

[@kimkimeree]

All Rachel content is passionate and thus fluffing fantastic! Loved watching you nerd out.

[@buttercupup3687]

I love how you recreated that scene at the end, it gave me all of the childhood nostalgia. My brother and I loved Spider-Man he was probably our favorite superhero and we would dress up like him too (I only did it sometimes because I would have to borrow one of his costumes, and he was more into it than I was most of the time). I do remember I had a “spider girl” costume but I didn’t like it that much because it was a dress with this tutu skirt and what I had wanted was just a slightly more feminine Spider-Man costume (I love dresses but that costume was not it and I would have honestly rather had a Spider-Man costume instead but 🤷‍♀️). Actually there was this narrow hallway in our house and one day when my brother and I were playing, we discovered that if we jumped and put our arms and legs out we would “stick” to the walls. We then proceeded to play and climb the walls and go get our mom to show her our discovery (she was not too impressed since she was concerned about our safety but didn’t prevent us from doing it and having our fun)

[@oceanfloor3524]

The sheer excitement radiating off of the last half of the video was just great

Hey uhhhhh 1) This was amazing. Informative, creative, funny 10/10 2) Would you maybe do a tutorial-type video on turning yourself into that Tom Holland look?? It's SO good

Your genuine excitement made this video 10X more enjoyable! A Spiderman tutorial normally would fall between 3 & 6 on the 1-10 scale, biased on how much you like Spiderman or superheroes in general (I am somewhere in the middle). The energy you brought into it though, brought it to a 8 or 9. It was wonderful!

I laughed SO HARD through this whole video 😂 It reminded me of when I was 14 and my mom made me duct tape her up for a dress form. It was such a hilarious fiasco, and then she decided we needed to make a plaster mold instead. It just got more and more hilarious and awful 👌🏻

Please keep on going with your videos. I love both the vintage AND the cosplay videos!!!!

Don't ever feel like you need to apologise for doing or not doing something. We might have come for vintage style, but we stayed for you and your personality. I love youe videos because of excited and passionate you are about what you create. Whether that's making a homemade muscle suit or a vintage thrift haul, I'm happy. Side note: I've also been obsessed with Spiderman since I was little. I had all the episodes of the cartoon on VHS and used to run around my house screaming the lyrics to the theme song. I was Spiderman for Halloween 3 years in a row, and then outgrew my costume and was not allowed to get a new one. This cosplay is a dream cosplay for me too, and I'm so so happy you got to do it! Can't wait to see the photos from the con ❤🕷️

This is awesome! I’m a bit late to the party... totally get the giddy kid vibes. I spent a few months making a headless horseman costume. Designed a frame and everything that strapped around my chest and kept everything in place. Being a woman, it was fun transforming into something I loved. Even wore the costume to see the Philadelphia Orchestra perform their Halloween concert where costumes were encouraged. I redid it the following year to be more structured and realistic. 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Love this and all your videos... endless giggles! Your humor makes my day.

[@vanessaultimo1926]

This turned out so good. I literally didn't believe it was you in that suit at first. Same with the Gandalf cosplay. You've got so much talent 👍

[@JayFolipurba]

couple things: first off, this is a super cool project! If it really hasn't been done, it will help a lot of people with female anatomy who want to build a male-figure cosplay. Very nice! second; I also worked to unlock this "suit" and use it as reference, because I have a male body and I want it to look like spider-man. ...It worked out great, and lastly, you could easily do classic MJ, so now you can be spidey and MJ at the same time xD

I adored this. I've wondered if cosplayers ever pack but couldn't find anything about it. The focus was always on chests. As such seeing you carve your codpiece was fun.
