Triangular Spiders - Arkys

I just found out about this genus, and HELLO !? !?! ! ? They are so beautiful, how do they even exist . . . I am speechlesss (but not really, because I am a yapper) . . . here is some information :

This genus can be found in Australia and on some of the surrounding islands. Additionally, they do not, actually, build webs. However, they can be found on leaves and flower buds.

Eitherway, a HUGE shout-out to this species ! !

Hunting in the ruins — one BEAST of a commission completed for Arkys! Started several months ago, finished yesterday. The background was a tough challenge for me but I’m glad with how it came out. HD version on my Patreon! Featuring a certain red dragoness cameo somewhere…
