Web-swinging defines Spider-Man’s movement style, and this guide covers how to draw Spider-Man swinging on his web in the 2017 animated series design. The Disney XD show gave Peter Parker a sleeker, more angular look compared to earlier cartoons. This dynamic pose captures him mid-swing with one arm extended and legs tucked, a common action shot from the superhero series.
Sketching Spider-Man Mid-Swing
This tutorial breaks down into 20 step-by-step images guiding through the complete drawing. The pose presents more of a challenge than static standing poses because of the foreshortening in the limbs and the twisted torso. For those who want to start with something simpler, the Spider-Man 2017 standing pose tutorial uses the same art style without the complex angles.
Details of This Spider-Man Pose
- Body angled with torso twisted toward viewer
- Left arm reaching backward with fingers spread
- Web line running diagonally from right hand to the top
- Large white eye lenses with slight squint
- Red spider emblem visible on blue back section
- Web pattern following the curves of the suit
Drawing Spider-Man swinging on web requires attention to how the body bends during motion. The suit design follows the same rules as the standing version: web pattern only appears on red sections, and the spider symbol sits on the chest and back. Artists who completed the Spider-Man hanging on web guide will find this poses different challenges since the body here shows much more movement.
