Rook Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) Bugs for the Birds Bugs for Window Display collaboration with New ToroLUG member Eck Oh. Eck Oh is doing a bunch of birds so I thought I'd offer to add some tasty bugs to the mix.

Kristel Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 These all look fantastic, but the butterfly is just amazing. Very clever parts usage! Quote
Ardelon Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) Pretty neat, though the Walking Stick could be longer. And I hope youll be able to straighten out those fishing poles later! Are the dark areas between the wings digitally altered, or is it some kind of photo trick? Edited December 17, 2012 by Ardelon Quote

Sir Walter Maugham Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 Wow, I these are all great, but that butterfly... I haven't seen such creative piece usage in a long time. Fantastic job. I'd love to see you make a praying mantis. Quote
L@go Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 There is some very inventive parts usage here, and all three creations look great. Well done! Quote
charlieboy Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) That dragonfly is fantastic! Awesome use of parts too, i'd never have thought to use fishing rods like that on the butterfly! Edited December 22, 2012 by charlieboy Quote
Rufus Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Dude, you're a genius. I absolutely love that butterfly. Have a tag. Quote
Kai NRG Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Love the Dragonfly and great piece use on the butterfly too! And the Walking Stick is quite clever! Quote
Amset-Rah Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 That dragonfly build is a marvel. The butterfly is awe inspiring as well, while the walking stick is interesting. It's a bit of a, "second take" build with him, but I like it all the same, but the butterfly is my pick of the litter here. Quote
CopMike Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Outside the box thinking ! Really great ones, I totally like the simplicity and clever use of parts! Well done! Quote
jimmynick Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 The bending pieces on the butterfly and dragonfly models are very evocative of wings. Well done, Rook! Quote
Rook Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) Dude, you're a genius. I absolutely love that butterfly. Have a tag. I's gots an artist's color palette.
