Little Spider #1 (Done!)
Finished One!!!
-for the first one, I’m just going with a simple black patina, and I polished and masked the little hourglass on her tummy.
More photos below the fold…..

A shot of the cephalothorax, where the legs are attached. -This is basically the reason I chose to do a dead one, because I think the leg attachment details are really cool looking.


here are the chelicera, and the fangs, emerging from under her little shell…

I don’t often turn my sculptures upside down to photograph them, but this one is kind-of a free floating thing. Eventually, I’m sure she’ll get unsightly scratches where her abdomen touches the ground, but for now….

Just look at those sweet baby blues….
I’m off to visit my family for thanksgiving, but I’ll crank on the rest of ‘em when I get back….
-One down, Three to go!!!
