As you can see, I begun sketching traditional looking spiders, studying
how their body is connected and how their eyes are shaped and
positioned.
After some initial designing, a thought came to me:
What if I twisted the tale and made something quite dark?
With this idea in mind, I started developing my ideas further by combining
aspects of my spider sketches with some simple human like designs. I felt
this would be a good idea because I wanted the actions portrayed in my
work to be relatable to the viewing audience (Otherwise it would be more
troublesome to make them feel disgusted and/or uncomfortable), and
personally thought that understanding the struggles of a spider would be
difficult, so using a more human-like figure would help alleviate this
concern.
Satisfied with this idea, I decided to continue this humanized concept
further.
