[WIP] Silk monster (spider or snail or ...)

Hi,
I would like to request a monster that can plausibly drop silk-- standard examples would be a snail (which should be quite easy to draw) or a spider (which might be a little hairier but great for people who like a challenge). Or something completely different-- we don't have to stick to real-world silk providers, after all.

In the realworld we generally get silk from a caterpillar known as a silk worm (correct me if I'm wrong)
but the spiky slime looks like a snail (if that helps)

Len,
Ah, I hadn't thought about silk worms either.
Yes, those would work fine (as would your spiky slime, I'd say.)
Thanks,

Hi,
here is a silkworm spritesheet:

A speed of 1300 seems to be working fine with this.
