I painted up this giant crab from Recreational Conflict as a gift for a friend. It was an excellent casting, very smooth, nearly no cleanup required. The figure also came with some cool claw variations - my bits box is better for having some giant claws in it! I will say that attaching all of the legs was a real pain in the butt, getting them to all be angled just right and also sit flat on the base took a bit of fiddling.
I think the end result is pretty good, though - if I ever need a giant crab for a game, I'll get another one of these. It was a joy to paint.

Every game needs a giant crab! :D
Very cool; the blue is unusual but nice. Your friend is lucky for receiving such a nice gift.

Weirdly nice!

Looks good enough to eat. Nice job.

I need that and a whole load of lizardmen, cyclops and other monsters and then I can game the Fighting Fantasy book - Island of the Lizard King on the table top!
Nice work by the way. 8)

Nice one! Just what a crab should look like. And actually I like the blue color, reminds me of a cool, refreshing ocean or lake. And with a 60mm base this bugger is really big. Great!
