I love spiders, thanks so much for this wonderful lesson!
This was a good lesson, but rather hard. I changed my spider and it is also lighter and uglier than original in the lesson. Hope you still like it

I like your spider very much. Great job!
Whoa! This was a hard lesson, I think!
I tried my hand at it -- drawn freehand, and pulled into PSP to finish. It's great for cleaning up, even though I always use a sheet of paper under my palm as I draw, and work light to dark.
It's not perfect by any means, but I'm surprised. It came out better than I expected although I really didn't get the position of the legs right. They should be closer together where they meet at the body.
Here's mine.

This one was a challenge. My spider is off a bit because I had to to add circles to the cephalothorax. Also the abdomen needs better shading on mine. But at least my drawing looks like a spider. 
This lesson didn't go well. It's a bit frustrating, my spider is too big and I gave up.
