To say this experience was fun, is an understatement.
It all started with our local convention, FanX, bringing Tom Holland to town. I was excited for my dudes to get a chance to meet him. I already had a Spiderman costume for one of my boys, and thought dressing the other one up as Mysterio would be so fun for a photo. So, I got to work making that.
I didn’t have much time to get this costume done, and didn’t take enough pictures of the actual construction. But, what I have I put in this video. It was so, so amazing to see Tom with my dudes. He jumped right into the fun when I asked him to team up with my little Spidey, and pretend to be fighting my Mysterio for a photo. We were on cloud 9 after!
Shortly after FanX, I learned that both Tom Holland and Jake Gyllenhaal would be in Chicago together at a different convention. I tossed it around in my head for a while and then decided to take them to recreate the picture with Jake. It was such an incredible trip for me and my dudes. I hope to do it every year now.
Take a look at the video I put together of the costume build, and then see the fun photos we took with Tom and Jake. It was an experience we will never forget!
