The Prawn is an
infiltration craft employted by the Alpha Team to gather information on the
increasing threat posed by the Sea Monkeys (1). It is laden with sensory
equipment, but has only token weaponry, namely a small laser cannon mounted
under the front cowling. It is designed to go unoticed among the panopoly of
sea creature inspired craft employed by the Sea Monkeys (kudos to Joe Meno),
and is small and nimble enough to avoid rather than confront trouble should
it be discovered.

Allister, this is a cool moc. You really captured the whole alien/aquatic
aesthetic very well. I think its very difficult to make something look really
‘alien’and you have succeeded. The profile is great, the pilot is snugged in
and protected. Keeping the armament to a minimum was key... form follows
function. The segmented body was well done, and the ‘legs’ as well. I can
easily picture it floating in an alien sea... watching... always watching...

This moc was originally going to be the head for
this mecha, but,
frankly, it looked ridiculous in that context. Rather than break it up, it
occured to me that with the simple addition of a few thrusters and fins it’d
fit into the Sea Monkey universe quite well, and the Spy Prawn was born.

I think you made the right call.
I did.
