Mother of Spiders
« on: 04 March 2019, 01:22:44 PM »
This is my Mother of Spiders miniature. The last of a dying race and leader to a Spider Cult. I made her to give some context to my Monstrous Spider miniature. I think a couple of acolytes need to join their gang.

Spider Cult you say?! Very interested given one of my logs focusses around a spider-cult too :) This is a jaw-dropping mini. If you were to sell casts on the market I'd fight to be first in the queue. Awesome work.

Thank you all. She is currently in silicone and I’ll run some resin casts tomorrow, then she’s off to be moulded for metal casting.
She’ll be joining my Besrs Head minis range in due course and hopefully ready for Salute.

I like that.  Glad I found your site the other day, I'll certainly want at least one of her.

I like that a lot. An acolyte would be great too.

Potentially useful for adding to her base or customizing the figure itself a bit by tacking on some more crawling friends.

Thanks again for the comments and interest. I ran some resin casts last night and the mould is heading out today for metal casting. I’m hoping to have her ready for Salute, there will be limited resin copies available in the meantime.
