“I settled on a bulge that was slightly larger than what’s visible on the Advanced Suit,” Coelho-Kostolny says, referencing the primary costume that Spider-Man wears throughout the game. Picking Spider-Man’s boxers also comes with another minute-yet-important decision: What does Peter Parker’s bulge look like? Getting the right balance between what is visible and what’s not was tricky, Coelho-Kostolny says. The resulting design depicts Peter Parker in unwrinkled low-rise trunk briefs which “show off the V shape of his lower abdomen and the dimples on his lower back.” How specific does this get? Well, Coelho-Kostolny had to determine the stitches on the boxers, because, as it turns out, some stitch patterns are considered intellectual property. Speaking to Polygon, Coelho-Kostolny also added that he also had to think carefully about Peter Parker’s briefs for the Undies suit as well.įor instance, he had to decide how high the underwear rode on Spider-Man’s hips, and whether or not the briefs had any wrinkles or flaps. To his surprise, however, Marvel didn’t really interfere with Coelho-Kostolny’s bare-chested Peter Parker.įor that suit, Coelho-Kostolny told Fanbyte that while he didn’t design Spider-Man’s model, he was responsible for the character’s muscle detail, skin texture, and the particulars of his anatomy.īut to get Peter Parker’s nipples just right, Coelho-Kostolny told Fanbyte that he had to had to use plenty of shirtless references, including even looking at himself in the mirror. Marvel, in turn, sometimes gave the studio incredibly granular feedback on what Spider-Man should look like. In an email, Coelho-Kostolny explained that all suits in the game, including the infamous “Undies” outfit, had to get the green light from Marvel.
