Title: Kiss of the Spider Woman
Name: Juan Gaertner
Country: Germany
Software: Photoshop, ZBrush

Inspired by the novel of argentinian writer Manuel Puig, and a very nice film adaptation from the 80's:
Nevertheless, my image has nothing to do with the plot of the novel, it is a free interpretation of the titlle.
Modelling, texturing and rendering in ZBrush.
Little postproduction in Photoshop.
Since I want to send it to a challenge, I would be very thankfull for critics.

Nice and scary rendering, very disturbing. Is the background composited?

I think the background is distracting. It kind of blends with the spider's body. A better bg with more contrast with the subject might improve it.

Thanks Cenkkara and Bubbaloo.

The background is not composited, it is part of the zbrush-scene.
The blending between the dark hole and the back of the spider body was intended, but I take very seriously your critic about the distracting effect of the background.
