spiders
around 2 years ago, i had the idea of "if i were put in charge of a doll line, what would i make?" i settled on the idea of spider gijinkas a la how monster high's characters were inspired by universal movie monster classics, but instead i would be. inspidered. with the selling point idea being 1. VERY different than any other line while still being fashion-forward 2. educational-designs reference lots of Spider Facts and associated webseries would do the same to teach thru characterizations 3. teaching kids to not fear spiders either 4. catering to Weird Bug Kid Demographic (untapped market)
obviously the main cast had to have 8 characters (the spider number), so i chose a variety of spiders that are Iconic plus a few personal faves. pls appreciate their eight eyes that reflect the placement of eyes on the actual species of spiders, their little pedipalps, their big spider butts, and that they all have 6 arms to match the eight legs of the spider overall
unfortunately this idea never made it past the base thumbnailing idea, so Here They Are Now I Still Love Them
