Tarantula - Theraphosa Blondi

3D Model

A simple very low poly tarantula.

This model is purposed to be used in VR as a negative stimulus for psychological studies. It is inspired by the Goliath Birdeater (Theraphosa Blondi), the largest known spider, its fangs are venomous and can break the human skin, quite a nice fear-inducing animal right?

This model lacks some hairs on its legs but, as it was designed for VR, such tiny hairs would not be seen anyway (because of the relatively low resolution inside any HMD). I will probably add them later though, just for the show :)
