While binge watching "Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell" I was inspired to sketch this lil' cutie after seeing some cyclops, spider, creature-thing, that seemed sweet in a creepy & gross, sort of way! Hugs, anyone?!?
this is a traditional illustration in water color and micron marker of a Venomized Spider Gwen looking out over a city on a Spider Gwen number 1 blank sketch cover. See more at Sketchcardsandcovers.com
My part in the #Spidersona challenge. This would be me in my universe and my spidersona known as "Night Spider." She is a plus size web comic creator at a small company in Manhattan, NY. She then takes on her vigilante ways as Night Spider. If it wasn't obvious, totally obsessed with the #IntoSpiderverse film.

My half of the art trade with OptimisticJerk (https://www.deviantart.com/optimisticjerk). The trade was to draw a monster as made up by your counterpart without seeing a reference image, based only on the description. Here is her half (which is awesome): www.deviantart.com/optimisticj…
For mine, I had to draw a monster called a "niter" based off of his description:
"Niters communicate in whispers. Nocturnal. Shy away from light. They’re black and oily and emanate a bluish glow. Large, looming 6 foot shadow things with massive hind legs, clawed for climbing trees and they have ‘maws’ instead of arms, claw-like appendages they stab people with and only one gaping blue eye. Their mouths open up and they swallow their victims whole."
What's funny is that I didn't see the fact that they emanate a bluish glow until now. So, the glow from the eye is purely by coincidence. Figuring out the hind legs of this creature was difficult, and so I sought reference images, and of all things, the koala turned out to be a pretty good reference.
For a while, there, it was looking like Carnage from Spiderman, but I toned down the reddish-hue a bit. The intention was to give the appearance of motor oil.
So, now to find out how badly I failed at drawing this...
This art trade was fun, though, and I would do a similar one, again. But I am le tired.
Saw Into the Spiderverse (finally) and was stunned by their animation and art style. Figured I'd try my best to imitate it and learn how they do it. Also, Spider-Gwen? There is literally no downside to trying this work.
