I externalised the Arachnid OBJ, cleaned up the other piccy, added some landscape...

they looks like the bugs in "Starship Troopers"

____________

That's because they are !!

Um, I'd really worry when a program's bugs become smart enough to choose appropriate avatars...

Posette returned with some heavy-duty on-line debugging tools...

How do you like your pseudo-Arachnids ??

Here we go!

Posette welcomed the chance to test-drive an ESA prototype Mars Marcher.---

This began as a free 'Walker.3DS' from Eric Saltel's huge archive. After a while, I hacked off the head / turret in Draw3D and re-saved body, which also reduced the number of group / colour sections from ~95 to one (1).

The flight seat was a Renderosity freebie, scaled to suit Posette rather than a space-suited super-hero. Several scaled Poser-prop cylinders made a nice base. I tried a Poser-props ball as a canopy, but it did not look right. Back to Eric Saltel's archive for some 'soccer' balls. I found one where the bevels were coloured / grouped seperately to the faces, set the latter translucent. Still, it did not look quite right. Then I thought to reinstate the Poser ball, with a slightly smaller diameter to create 'double glazing'. Gotcha !!

All together now...

"These Boots Are Meant for Walking !"

"Now SMILE for the Cameras !!"

Great work

That machine is really impressive Nik !!     You're making BIG THINGS       !!

D'uh, more like playing with Duplo Lego...

I'm no Artist.

Um, I've still got that half-idea for the next 'BBB' piccy...

The Third Instar of a pseudo-arachnid was a solitary hunter...

Yes, it is a Royloo's monster Worm plus two sets of mouthparts from a Bernie's Worm. Posette's outfit is MayaDoll Basic vest and shorts, plus 'power floosie' hikers. Spears and caltrops are from Renderosity freebies. Terrain is Hys temple ground...

A Third Instar took a lot of killing...

IIRC, Posette's hood is a Ghastley freebie, probably from Sadie costume. Technically, it is hair...
