#Hobie tarantula (no tarantulas in the uk I think but they’re cool and hes cool. He’s easy to imagine as one of those mega colourful ones)

Spider-people from ATSV as spiders! (Yes, I know Lyla isn’t technically a spider person, and vinegaroons aren’t spiders but you know what I mean!)

what if… instead of spider man… it was spider.

design notes and species info under the cut!

For all of the spiders, I tried to stick vaguely with the IRL colouration (albeit with more fitting patterns). Most colours are colour picked from spider photos. Miles and Miguel have human patterns instead of their spider ones, cute touch I reused from my spidersona

Miles - giant vinegaroon. This is an arachnid BUT not a spider, which I thought matched his whole “not feeling like a real spider person” arc well. I chose this species specifically because it would be a perfect fit for the prowler (spikes, scary look), so fits prowler!miles and the theory miles was going to be the prowler in his universe

Gwen - white porch spider. I really struggled picking her species lol. I knew I wanted something sleek with long legs, but specifics I didn’t really know. I ended up choosing this species because the pale colouration worked nice for Gwen’s colourscheme

Lyla - house jumping spider. I knew as soon as I got the idea I HAD to draw Lyla as a jumping spider, it fits her so well! This one I was more relax with the colours and design as she’s a hologram, I gave her an outline and lighter lineart colours to show this

Miguel - Sydney funnel web spider. Chosen because it’s the most venomous (to humans) spider in the world (and his whole thing is biting) and also because they are just so intimidating and epic. Tbh I don’t think I even did the species justice, I recommend looking them up

#I was gonna do WAY more but I did Miguel and was like #wow this single drawing took 5x longer than I thought it would #I may be a perfectionist when it comes to drawing bugs but at least it’s fun lol #The others were gonna be: Peter B wolf spider (carries daughter) #Hobie tarantula (no tarantulas in the uk I think but they’re cool and hes cool. He’s easy to imagine as one of those mega colourful ones) #pavitr as some spider native to India. A colourful one #that’s as far as I got brainstorming.
