Title: Preview of Sci-Fi range 8 - The Protz!
Post by: Leon on 30 August 2024, 10:15:23 PM
Our next Sci-Fi range is a prawn/locust hybrid, 6ft-8ft tall, bipedal and with four large 'main' limbs and four smaller manipulatory limbs on a thin upper body with a wasp-like lower abdomen.  They have overlapping plates like an elongated woodlouse.

These will go into the moulding queue with range 7 and we'll be looking to release before the end of the year.

Interesting idea!! Must admit I'm struggling to see the details of the figs, I think it is the contrast of the dark green putty and the metal just making it hard to see details. 

The ones that are more side view on look more interesting showing the wasp abdomens.

Prawn/locust hybrid?

Yeah, they can be tricky to photo with the bare metal + putty.

They certainly can...the colour of the putty seems to get affected, as well. :-\
