Hi all,
I’m a bit hesitant to show this, what with all the amazing MOCs appearing at
the moment, but here goes.
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.
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.
Please enjoy
Allister

I really like this guy, Allister. I spotted it on Brickshelf yesterday whilst
cruising through. The articulated spine makes it look totally organic...throw
in the tendrils and you got yourself a very rare sidedish. As I was scrolling
thru, I was saying to
self...‘pleaselettherebeafig,pleaselettherebeafig,pleaselettherebeafig...’
And there was. All is good. :)
Inspires me to get back to doing a few Vox models again. Those ACER guys are
getting a little uppity...
Veddy cool.
Cheers,
-G
