Another striking piece of digital art! It has great initial impact, and keeps one looking because of its story telling ability. I'm glad you exolained the meaning of
Afrachnophobia.

    Thank you, Lora! The title was suggested by a FAR member, and he gave me permission to use it if I wanted. I thought it was pretty clever of him. :)

Love this Shawn, definitely looks like a fractal. Creative and different. I think your spider may have too many legs, LOL. Like the texture that you applied to the background. Shirley

Fractal spiders have now joined the list of spiders that ick me out, lol. This has great detail and conveys the sensation of creepy little legs scurrying across my screen.

Wow! Very good job on this one MoonWillow. I love the design of this spider (and I hate spiders) The colors are wonderful. I love the composition and the little designs on the side. The lighting looks perfect. Thank you so much for sharing your work :)

What a perfect piece to go with the title. Like little arms going to "GRAB" you! I even see a little dangerous face in the middle. I can just imagine, people that are scared of spyders probably see just this! Great interpretation!

    Ohhh, don't say that, BB. It's giving me the creeps just trying to answer reviews without having to stare at this. Spiders aren't one of my favorite creatures. Thanks a million for the excellent review!!

    LOL! And WHY did you create this? Perhaps a bit of spyder therapy :)
Comment from philstagg


Perhaps this should be called "Afrachnophobia" then!! I won't let my wife see this one. She hates spiders.

Nicely done with beautiful colors and design! The yellow/red background is very nice, especially tinged with the purple highlights!

Good job!
Phil

    Thank you for the great review, Phil. This one is definitely giving me the willies. Clever title. Mind if I use it?
reply by philstagg on 26-Sep-2008
    I don't mind at all! Perhaps you can do another one with a dark, ominous background - that would be creepy indeed!

Hi Shawn I always have hated spiders this is a very good likeness It is good as it stands I would have done something different. I would have made the entire image out of thousands little spiders and then I would have burned them at the stake no joke Just something to think about The circle is the section I am talking about Great ob
