      Living this one. I do like the new colours you have used, much more menacing.
      I can see that I am going to have to save up for some of these industria mechanika jobs.

              Thank you all for your kind comments.

              Today I completed the head (minus antennae) using Tamiya Brown Panel Line accent and Tamiya Clear Blue paint.
              The clear lenses push-fit into the eye sockets and magnify the hexagonal pattern to achieve a great bug-eye effect (once again, I found this super-difficult to photograph and they look much better in person).

              I have also completed the legs, placing pins in the ball sockets to aid final alignment and add additional strength.

                    It really is nice to see something very different, and this is a great build the colours are fantastic, very well done.

                    Steve.

                      Looking very good, it reminds me of the bug in Quatermass and the pit film.
