I must admit that I had to look at lots of pictures first to understand how the different body parts are structured and linked! Thank you for your kind words. 😘
Amber Appelbee That's the only solution I could come up with to make sure that the legs are in the right placement because it wasn't easy for me at first to paint this creepy little beast :) Thanks a lot for your positive feedback!
had an event yesterday eve. got the first boy who sat down to choose this spider! 10 spiders later..... i was a happy painter ! all the boys wanted the spider and all on the same side! great fast design!!! love it and have mastered it!!!! grazia mille
+מישל תם Oh yes, that's typical!!! When one boy chooses a design, all the other boys usually want the exact same thing afterwards 😉 Congratulations! I personally find it hard to paint this design fast at an event.
In your tutorial you take alot of time working out where the legs go. I see no reason to. I just flick 3 times for each as you taught in the general forward direction for 2 fronts and downward for the back legs. Also add a cob web at the corner off eye. Just love it. Thanks again. Michelle from israel
Chelsey Austin Yes, thank you so much for sharing the picture with me on my FB page! I really loved your version. I'm sure it wasn't easy painting this on yourself but you did a fantastic job!
That is true but my eyesight does not enable me to paint such tiny insects. Also, it wouldn't be as effective and spooky if it was true to size. Thanks for your feedback and have a great Halloween!
That's so good to hear, thanks for letting me know. It also took me several tries to manage it myself. Tutorials always look so easy on TH-cam but you don't see all the failed attempts that happened before.... Practice makes perfect! 😉
hi sophie! thanks for making these tutorials! i am thinking about tackling face painting for my daughters bday party guests and your tips are so very helpful!! did you ever finish the tutorial on how to make your own stencils? also, your voice is so soothing! :)
+jayenkaycee Thank you for your kind words, they mean a lot to me! I haven't started working on my stencil tutorial but it's the next one on the line. I hope to finish it by the end of September but it will be tough because I have a lot of jobs this month. I'll do my best :)
+Jessica Lopez Gonzales I know that it goes a bit fast towards the end but I try to keep my videos under 10 minutes and it was hard with this one... Once you've placed the reference dots of the legs, you just need to link them to the body of the spider in three segments (2 long teardrops and one dagger stroke). Don't worry if the legs of your spider are not exactly like mine, there are lots and lots of possible placements. Just give it a try and you will be positively surprised 👍
MrDioshomero "Google Translate" no puede llegar a una buena traducción de tu comentario ... Así que no estoy seguro de lo que escribiste , pero gracias de todos modos
I have made other videos about my favorite paints and where to buy them. If you live in the States, you can check out sillyfarm.com. I recommend a strong black, like the one from Diamond FX. But you can also achieve this design with a regular black eye makeup pencil from the drugstore. It will be a bit trickier to paint but it's feasable. Good luck!
Really? Oh my Goodness you're right (I just checked again). A lot of illustrations show the red marking on the back though because it wouldn't be visible otherwise and that's what confused me.. Thanks for pointing it out, I just learned something new. 👍
SophiesTips Not a big deal. Most people wouldn't even know that. Most people will only ever see the hourglass when a female spider is on its web, or if it's dead and curled up. I only even pointed it out because it is SUCH A REALISTIC painting otherwise. I especially love how the shadowing makes the body look low almost touching the skin.
Thank you! It's so funny because the shadowing is actually the easiest part of this design but it's also what has the biggest impact. You're absolutely right, the confusion with the hourglass red marking does come from the fact that this spider is usually photographed from underneath, standing on her web. I actually realised this after looking at the pictures more closely. So happy I've learned that thanks to you. I am always trying to stay true to nature as much as possible but art does allow some room for "free interpretation", I guess. 😉

Thanks for your insight but I am quite aware, Face painting is all about fantasy and fun, and is sometimes only remotely inspired by reality. A true to size black widow would not be effective if the goal is to create a truly spooky (and visible) design. Feel free to paint it smaller if you'd like. Btw, I live in Germany and we have no black widows around 😛
You understand spider anatomy better than most face/body painters I've encountered. Well done!
I must admit that I had to look at lots of pictures first to understand how the different body parts are structured and linked! Thank you for your kind words. 😘
when my sis asleep i be painting this on her arm and when she wake up..... lmaooo xD
Haha, you're funny! 😱🙌
A really fabulous tutorial. I love how you break down how to measure & place the legs.
Amber Appelbee That's the only solution I could come up with to make sure that the legs are in the right placement because it wasn't easy for me at first to paint this creepy little beast :) Thanks a lot for your positive feedback!
I love the little boy's reaction! Not sure if he's your son... But it looks amazing and you made it look simple. I shall try it out!

This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing your tips and skills with us.
You're very welcome. Boys and girls alike really like this one. Glad you like it!
Most of the black widow spiders in my area are even smaller, often being so small that you have to look closely to see the red hour glass.
That is true but my eyesight does not enable me to paint such tiny insects. Also, it wouldn't be as effective and spooky if it was true to size. Thanks for your feedback and have a great Halloween!
I loved your tutorial and the realistic 3D look!!! you're amazing! thumbs up!
+Adriana Villarreal Thanks for your great feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed this look!

INCREDIBLE !!! That young boy is GORGEOUS !!! :D

Wicked tutorial!!!! Thank you for sharing your mad skills!
Thank you so much! I need to start thinking about Halloween designs soon again...
Excellent tutorial.. thanks
I'm glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for your feedback.
Adding the shadow is a great touch! Really makes it pop.
Oh I agree! The shadow and the white highlights are key in making this looks 3D. Thanks for your feedback!
Great shadows, cool
+Scot Campbell Thanks Scot! The shadows are the key to the 3D effect - and yet they are so easy to do!
Fantastic! thank-you! great model too!

+Kirsti Edwards Thank you! Yes, please do and let me know how it turned out!

This spider still scares me even though I've watched this video a few time. 😄
Haha, that's so funny. Thank you for making me laugh in front of my screen today! 😭
Love it! Also it's easy to watch your videos as your voice is so gentle. Love them all!

+Anya Jade So many face painting ideas ... so little time 😉
Thanks for the suggestion tough, I'm glad you like it!
Beautifully done! Seems we think on the same wavelength! I would've done my legs mathematically too. 🕷🕸
Thank you! 😊 Yes, the best way to draw something that seems complicated at first is usually to focus on shapes (length, thickness, angles, etc).
I love this. It's a design I really want to practice. Thank you Sophie x
You are very welcome Eileen. It is a design that gets a lot of attention indeed.
super fun tutorial, tfs. Hugs Sara

Just in time for Halloween! Thank you so much mine came out awesome the 1st try!

Could I use eyeliner instead of face paint
You could try but it might be difficult to achieve the color gradient.
wow the best
+Nicole Richings Thanks, are you going to try it this Halloween?
Me encantó
Muchas gracias, eres una joya
is there anyway you can give a slower step by step of this. especially when it comes to the legs of the spider

excellent vid
Glad you liked it, thanks for letting me know!
Face paint?
Yes.... but what is the question?
this kid is fantastic
I would have to agree. 😉
gracias me gusto spenas la vi
It's fantastic. I'll try it, because my spider's looks like ants :(
Maybe because the legs are not long enough and the body is too long and skinny?
@@SophiesTipps Yes, that's why. Thank you so much. I admire your work and the way you explain.
It too realistic if you consider that black widow red marks are usually underneath the abdomen, not the top. Other than that, I like it.
Indeed you are right, I just checked. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
coool
😘
Thank you sooooo much! This is such a great tutorial :)
You're very welcome. Thank you for your positive feedback!
Am I the only one who is a bit confused by the placement dots for the legs????
What exactly is confusing to you? Maybe I can help....
This is beautifully done, but the hourglass is on the belly of a female black widow, not the back.
Really? Oh my Goodness you're right (I just checked again). A lot of illustrations show the red marking on the back though because it wouldn't be visible otherwise and that's what confused me.. Thanks for pointing it out, I just learned something new. 👍

1.5” black widow?! What part of the world do you live? We have tons of black widows in my yard and they are half that size.
Thanks for your insight but I am quite aware, Face painting is all about fantasy and fun, and is sometimes only remotely inspired by reality.

I might have gotten mixed up with measurements in inches... I honestly don't remember, sorry.
