      Not sure what impresses me more , your modeling skills or your imagination ! Not enough bravos to do it justice. πŸ‘ πŸ‘ Did I mention I hate spiders?

        I can assure you don't want to be inside my head.

        Here's an earlier attempt at working out how all the legs should work, just needs a dolls head and you've got the creepy one from toy story.

              Thanks Gents.

              Not quite steampunk, not enough fripperies for that, more sci fi/terminator/robot wars type of thing. Can't decide if the 'fangs' should be guns or nasty implements rather than just bighty things.

                Extremely sharp and a great subject imho. I have some recent immigrants from europe in my kitchen. Fake widow spider which are related the the black variety but less harmful with a bite similar to a wasp or bee sting. Spiders are very useful keeping flying bugs under control so I like to protect mine.

                  Another step along the path, no time to work the geometry but able to fiddle the textures.

                        BUILDERS & CREATORS OF LIVE PRODUCTIONS | Compagnie La Machine

                        La Machine is a street theatre company founded in 1999 and led by François Delarozière. It came about thanks to artists, technicians and theatre designers working together for the construction of unusual theatre objects. The work that we develop in public spaces relates, in the first instance, to theatre, urban planning and architecture.

                            I've used a bit of Clothworks to give the spider some weight.
