About a year ago I built a spider ((URL)). He seemed a bit lonely, so I build him a playmate. (2 URLs) I'm not sure how well the relationship is working out. The spider seems a bit agressive....

(...) Michael: If this were a LEGO fan-related event, what you've suggested would be fine... but in this case I don't think it would be a good idea. The models are part of a tour called "Meet the Gorton's Fisherman", which is not LEGO-centric. (...) (19 years ago, 19-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

(...) Wow! I bet you never thought you'd see a relative of yours rendered in LEGO. :) That's a pretty weird coincidence. (...) It was usually very strange to have these guys all over the place, staring blankly off into space. (Or staring at you!) (...) (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, FTX)

(...) Thanks, Spencer! Yes, the angle did make it a bit more challenging... I'm not happy with how some parts came out (his extended arm is a little stiff looking) but overall I think everything mostly works. There's almost nothing symmetrical in (...)
