Golden Orb Weaver study sketches
Added 2020-08-14 16:20:45 +0000 UTCAnother element that will be appearing along in the upcoming commission with anthro Fluttershy and Rarity is the Nephila pilipes also known as the Golden Orb Weaver spider.
Now I haven't drawn a lot of spiders in my time. I"m not fond of them, well except for jumping spiders, but I don't have a unnatural fear of them either. However my most vocal muse Petina has a phobia of spiders. So for this project she's punched out and told me I'm on my own.

Oh wait, that was a typo. F***.

2020-08-17 20:28:49 +0000 UTCNow there's a reference. Man, I loved that show. It would make me wonder the reasons why some minor details are the way they are, like how we came to associate red with "stop" and green with "go", to ponder the likelihood of something like that having come about in reverse.

2020-08-17 20:17:00 +0000 UTCI believe the usual term is "crop top" for the short(ened) hem. So a tank crop top and short-shorts. (Hmm. I recall some laced-sides denim short-shorts...)

2020-08-15 21:26:22 +0000 UTCOh! Golden Orb Weavers! Fun.... NOT! They and their webs are beautiful, but... At the old house, in a Florida oak hammock, there was one that just LOVED to spin her web across walkways. She could have done it between just about ANY other two trees, or higher up, and nobody would have cared. But NOOOOOOoooooooo! She had to spin her 6ft diameter web right across the path with her sitting just about eye level. No idea how many times I tore the webs down, but I never tried to kill her, or her daughters/granddaughters/whatever. But there was always one that did that.

2020-08-14 17:08:08 +0000 UTCAccording to the David Bowie album "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" going to Mars won't help avoid spiders......
