Tarantulas are known to be hairy and bulky. For this piece I decided to use ink pen to draw cluttered-heavy-lines where light does not meet and thinning the lines as we get to highlighted areas to indicate volume and 3D shape. The buttoned eyes are an inspiration from the book and film Coraline, film adaption directed by Henry Slick and original story/book by Neil Gaiman .
Based off my high school mascot South Hills Scorpions. At first it was outlined with weighted lines but after making the shape I started adding stipples to add value on the hard-dark-exoskeleton. Where there were really dark lines, I used a gel pen to add some value to balance out the thickness of the stippled portion. This was really tideous but I enjoyed the outcome, I wish I could of done better to be honest.
