so i got inspired .... either because of the fact that i need 2-3 tervigons and only had 20 bucks to spend.... or. that i wanna be creative. i made this using a styrofoam ball...air dry clay. some plasticard, and some 5 min epoxy putty. its still very wip..so be kind

Proportionwise I like it - has that 'giant armoured egg sac' look. What were you planning on using for legs? The look reminded me of an idea I had for a tervigon that would have small crocodile-style legs to waddle across the table, spurting eggs as it goes

nice work, sir. what are your thoughts on the head and gribbly bits?

The USS Orinoco was a Federation Danube-class runabout that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century, attached to Deep Space 9. It was outfitted with a sensor pod.

Yes it is finally here... another update... tho it a small one. got the base in for the tervigon also did some convertion work on the fleshborer hives. still need to greenstuff armor plates onto the fleshborer hives but aside from that. ive added some veining to the egg sack.

Still think it either needs some bigger feet with splayed toes/claws, or another pair of feet holding it up (or limbs posed to look like they're helping carrying the weight despite not being feet as such) - it looks too heavy for just two little legs.

Otherwise, looking good.

so ...round 2 of the tervigons project is upon us...and here are the pix
so the main idea is the tervigon is straining to use his claws and legs to lift up and do a big smash attack
