This giant tarantula backpack was built to fill a custom bookbag order. Tamara, an Australian artist with a page on furaffinity, made the huge arachnid for its proud owner, Kevin.
Tamera takes commissions for 2D and 3D artwork. She is able to sculpt and draw in a variety of styles and enjoys creating traditional toys as well as strange creatures. Her primary website features dragon soft sculptures as well as puppets, costumes, and the occasional space monster.
Implications - Now, everyone has their fears, and I'm not the kind of person who is afraid of spiders, but I know plenty of people who are. This is the kind of backpack that could scare away children on the playground, but increase your child's coolness quotient.
The bag is soft, warm, and original -- what more could you want?
