The legs are built from Aluminum tube purchased from my local hobby shop. The legs are detailed with small triangles of plastic card cut from some Evergreen plastic stock also purchased at my local hobby shop. The legs are assembled with superglue and the details are attached with it as well. The LEDs are 1.8mm red and 3mm red purchased off e-bay. I have some AD&D undead painted up and the Pumpkin Head guy will be incorporated into the diorama and act as the main power switch. This is powered by a 9 volt battery housed inside the base and accessed from the bottom.
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where did you get the legs and the LED stuff?
GriffinVery Cool! My wife would hate it!
Yup - she hated it and she smacked me for showing her too. She's a whee bit arachnophobic.
That's pretty slick! I like the red "eyes".

I made something of the same sort from a Sherman tank turret, and called it "Spank"! I used to hang it in a dark corner of my old apartment where I always had a problem with spiders putting webs up in the corner. Once I hung it up, I never saw another web in that corner! It must have scared the dickens out of them?
Very inventive!

This is the 1/48 Tamiya VW Beetle with a dash of inspiration from the Nevada desert Spider Beetles.
