Spider Queen

Description

The Okami Bestiary describes that the Spider Queen is capable of taking on the form of a beautiful woman to lure her victims; however, like her true form, she has no eyes upon her face.

I'm in love with the Spider Queen's design but have always faced the idea of drawing her with some trepidation. After reading this fact in the art book again, though, I wondered what her human form would look like, and took a shot at it. Her skin color is reflected in her robe (though her true form wears white, I doubt she would as a human since white robes are funerary in Japan), and the colors of her obi represent the flower.
I could improve some parts of how the hair flows but it was fun to draw and I love how it turned out. I may or may not have taken some nods from Mi-Kyung Yun's art... I also just realized how absurdly long her neck is. Anyway;;

So next time you see a beautiful woman... make sure she has eyes before you go off with her. XD
