I was just perusing your blog, and came across a spidey that you did in one of your very first posts.

It looks like you shaded the edges of the face with black (and I'm assuming the center is snaz red) to give the design some more depth. Do you do that with all of your spidey faces? Because I'm thoroughly impressed. I would have never thought to do that (I generally just do the all over red), but it looks great.

Mind if I give it a try the next time I do a Spiderman?

Edit: Also, do you mind me asking what silver that is? I have an old Wolfe silver, but I'm fairly certain it doesn't flow as nicely as that. Maybe I'm just using it wrong, though... A

And it is a nice spider mask!

Hi... sure go ahead... The spidey face is actually a diagonal - black blending into red on the other side (Kyrolan black and Snaz red).... and it is Wolfe Silver (old one...!) and a liner brush quite wet but not dripping.

THANK YOU! This is definitely the best spidey ever...and your sharing it (with details) totally rocks!

that's indeed gorgeous!

Oh wow, love the blending! I hadn't thought about using silver for the web, great idea ^_^

That is great, Shannon. I love it. Thank you for all of your information and help on here. I've been in this forum for awhile and finally just subscribed to your blog. Don't know why I waited so long.

Wow! Amazing. Best Spidey I've seen. I LOVE the idea of the blending, and of using silver for the web! Thanks Shannon, as always!!

Me too!

Ok, I can't find this pic and would LOVE to see it! Please help a sista out!

It is farther down on the first page. Also, what is that thing he is wearing - is that part of your chair or makeup cover? Very nice Spidey, I think I will have to give this a try too, my spideys have been horrible and melting in this heat! Why would anyone have an outdoor party during the dead of summer in Florida!!

This is the post http://shannonfennell.wordpress.com/2009/05/10/i-am-really-here-now/

And he's wearing a zipped-up jacket (it was early and chilly... and he's asleep which helped with the lines!)

Thank you That IS awesome!!! Can you imagine sleeping through that?!?! I have kids try to go to sleep during brushwork, but stay asleep? Man Shannon, you are GOOD!

Is it bad thaat I went to Shannons blog to look for the spidey pic, and was more excited about the pictures of her homemade scones? Mmmmmmmm scones. Nom nom nom.

There are cookies and cakebites too...
