My first Glass Tarantula

Jan 17, 2020 12:46 PM

I have been dabbling in hot glass for a bit. This is my first attempt at a life-sized tarantula. Playing with glass is lots of fun - try it if you get an opportunity!

“first”? Do I have to worry about armies of glass tarantulas now?

Hmmm, the hard part would be the symmetry. It looks like the structure is based on 6, like snowflakes.

Can you make a glass huntsman spider?

I have never tried. I thought a tarantula was bad enough. LOL I have never seen one IRL. Do you have a good picture?

I would rather not. You can just google Australian huntsman spider and pick out one that suits you but that's some nice work ?
