I take this opportunity to post an old project that I have sculpted many moons ago, since these are actually the spiders that I now use on my gobbos army I think its the perfect time to go on a nostalgia trip.
Back in September 2010, when I still sculpted for companies, I was commissioned to sculpt a couple medium sized spiders for the Otherworld miniatures range. Since they are specialized in old-school rpg miniatures I tried to sculpt them more realistic and kind of scary. Unfortunately I don't think that they are still on sale... So this was the end result of that old project, very fun and satisfying to complete. Good times.
Itsy Bitsy Spider...
A blast from the past indeed. For what it's worth, I prefer these over Otherworld's current crop of spiders.
ReplyDeleteThanks Finch, I believe the current ones are a bit more cartoony and less scary but good sculpts nevertheless. Its a style preference I guess but Im very glad that you prefer these sculpts.

Love those Arachnid's mate. Look real to me.Like your posts.Out of the way, why do you like Arachnids so much. I see you have a pic of yourself posing as a spider. Just curious what it's all about buddy !!!
ReplyDeleteI find fascinating how such a tiny creature manages to create intricate and mathematical accurate traps, moves stealthy even with 8 long legs and has potent venom... I mean its such a specialized predator that even humans avoid them. Spiders are the true ninjas of the microworld.
