The main parts, the abdomen and the head, are made out of Sculpey. Once that main portion is put together, I cut a base out of brass, and cut notches for the legs. Then I made templates out of paper for each leg, to make sure that the size was correct. Using those templates, I cut the legs from a thin sheet of brass. After they've been cut, I super-glued them in, and then glued on the gears and wire.
The whole thing took roughly about 50 hours to do. That includes glue drying time and baking time for the Sculpey.

cool piece of work! I love the detail! Although I can't figure out what that round-like protusion is at the front of its head. Is it a horn of some sort?
let me take a look at the other shots... XD

Heh... very astute of you. That protrusion at the front of its head was supposed to be part of the mandible that I never finished. :/

oh I see... even if it is unfinished it still looks very good. I imagine itd be better had you had time enough to finish it.

Thank you. 
And, if it didn't take me around 60 hours to make the lil bastard, I'd pound one out for you too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha.
all right, i'll just content myself with looking at the pictures.
oh, and if some sort of pirate comes through your window one night and steals it one night... it totally wasn't me.
