=====================================

Presenting the very first miniature!! (still a WIP, though.)

This is Spiderboss, a large, fearsome steam spider that has killed its constructor and now roams the ruins of the once-proud mansion. With her high pressure steam boiler of superior quality and her self-sustained refill mechanism, there is no hope this automaton will ever run out of energy. Spiderboss gathers a group of smaller steam spiders around her, so be prepared not to face her alone!

Special Attacks: Poison, Stampede, Net

Eep!

This thing is a moldcutter's nightmare if it isn't an assembly job for an expert. Each leg looks like it would take two pieces, and almost every other part looks it's own piece as well besides the tubes, which might be well off being some actual flexible material.

It may look cool as a 3d model, but I'd hate to try to put that into production as a miniature.

I can see how it could be done, but it would obviously be a different year's model for an actual mass produced miniature, I think.

hi, and thanks for the comment.
yes, I can see your point. But you have to know that this will be PRINTED, and not assembled. The printer can manage such a detail easily (I hope). some adjustments that will be made though is thickening up the legs, so that it recieves more structural strenght.

yes, of course there are more than this. I am not on my usual pc right now, so I don't have the files here, but I can come back to you later. But I would rather like to see some weapon models from you. like the steampunk pistol, for example. check out [link] for the weapon list. ^^
