Spiderman Glowing Eye Noir

[FracturedDawn]

Im piecing together the Spidey Noir and I have run into 2 problems. The Vest and the Glowing Goggles. I got a great set of goggles from Ebay Huge Burning Goggles Cosplay Playawear Rave Man Kawaii | eBay
But I have no clue as to how to give them the glowing effect. This is the first semi tech costume Ive made.
Thanks

You could try getting one of those glow-stick necklaces, they come in all sorts of colors, and lining the inside rim of the goggles with them, I mean, those things ar sold at the Dollar store, so it might be worth a buck to try, if not you can always rave with em.
Another idea, possibly getting mirrored window tint, and putting it on the outside of the goggle, them put glow-liners(that's my new term of the day) on the inside rim as I said above, and that might give a faint glow from behind mirrored goggles. It might be an idea, I don't know how you'd get a good silvery glow unless the maybe found white EL wires, which Iknow exist, but have no personal experience with.

Not a bad idea, lol I dont mind spending a dollar for an experiment. lol I like the way you think.

The originally lense color would it be better clear or in black? Trying to think or what would give off the best impression with the mirror tint lol dont want to blind myself

electroluminescent tape maybe?

 

[FracturedDawn]

sweet keep the suggestions coming. Ive never actually heard of EL tape.
Any ideas about the jacket?

I did a spiderman noir costume last fall using those same goggles. Just make sure you get the reflective lenses - they'll shine better than any glowstick/ other lighting technique.

There are no double-breasted leather vests out there that match the needed look, so you'll have to get a sewing pattern and modify it.

going to have to look at another website then since the one that has the goggles doesnt have them with reflective lenses. Or did you put the reflective lenses in?

You dont think the EL strips will be too large to fit in the goggles?

To be honest as long as there is flash and you have chrome tinted or reflective lenses they should shine like in the game, I wouldnt suggest any leds for the goggles. wires and battery packs can get annoying and make the mask lumpy.

For the vest my seamstress did all of the work and she made the whole vest completely from scratch creating her own patterns and such, I would recommend buying like a cheap vest or even one thing I did at the begining was researched buying different patterns and linking them or altering them. I.e vest, double breasted.
