Description Since I read for the first time about the fight between hobbits and Shelob, I always imagine it into a gallery, totally wrapped by darkness, with the only light given by Earendel's Light and Shelob's tummy. Here, I wanted give more enphasys leaving the only tummy's glimmer.

I was literally terrifyed by spiders, but I started to know more about this wanderful creature when a friend of mine, who is fascinated by Native's culture, tells me more about theyr symbology and the Granny Spider's one; I finded the reference photoes used here during my researches: I have had to work on more photoes for composing the posture of Shelob. Hope you like it!

hahah I can see how you got interested and its a good thing, I keep my reasoning for fear of spiders rational. Especially when poisonous/normal ones look identical so any nope creeps me out

AndromedasWitchery In reply to Ken-Yuhiko [2017-01-26 14:31:40 +0000 UTC]

Sometimes animals replicate skin patterns that belongs to poisonous ones: a genious defence system!!
Well... I have had to win my fear of spiders when I worked with young boys/girls at my saddle club: they were more terrified by spiders, bees or lizards as I was...

Ken-Yuhiko In reply to AndromedasWitchery [2017-01-27 04:33:30 +0000 UTC]

You also know about their defense mechanism? Soo cool! Considering your "win of fear" I assume you can tell apart?
