Of COURSE they look scary! The magnification makes them look that way. And it's GREAT. CaliforniaPeggy Friday #1

The spider in the top pic is about 1/16" long; the other spider is about 3/8" long Mousetoescamper Saturday #3

Nice detail - I'm glad they are outside, though! Diamond_Dog Friday #2

Thanks! My indoor arachnids are house spiders and jumpers. Mousetoescamper Saturday #4

Beautifully portrayed, my dear Mousetoescamper! The details give me goosebumps and not the fun kind.
