They are the natural born fighters in the real natural world. Now it´s time to honour these mighty predators with my next animal moc! The story of SLOOC and Scorpion will be my first animal diorama, and it fits nicely with my interest in these animals. Stay to the end to comment and rate please!
About this creation

It´s a great sunny day in the lair of SLOOC out in the desert...

The curious bird cautiously watches the giant spider from a high place

Arrgghh! The great nemesis suddenly appears out of the bushes! Typical of Scorp!

The one and only Scorpion on a bad, bad mood with her hungry children! Watch out...

> Grrrrr...You are not welcome here Scorp, beast of darkness!

> Hhrrr Hhrrr! Nassssty! Evil ya words are they NOT, you stinker of foul breath!

> Sssssss....YOU! Warned you I have, creature of stinging madness!

> War makes corpses out of us all SLOOC, let´s make war again!

> Scorp you giant fool, I´ll just have to kill you again, and again and AGAIN!

> My stinger has been sharpened just for you...prepare to die!

SLOOC quickly rushes past Scorpion up on the high ground ready to draw first blood...

> Mohahaha, getting slow Scorp...you old turtle??!

Arrrggghhh....Scorpion gets a nasty bite and gets thrown into the bushes! Wake up!

Scorpion wastes no time and quickly regains her balance, now she´s FURIOUS!

Another war is brewing between the children of death, it seems like an even fight!

In the same moment the mighty scorpion delivers a mighty sting, confusing SLOOC...

WHAT a great move! Scorp gets a solid grip on the screaming spider! Wow look...

Holy c***! Scorp throws SLOOC into her own lair crushing everything left in there!

With the speed of light, SLOOC sacrifices her last powers and strikes for the last time.

> Hey Stinger, are you aware of the fighting?
> Yeah, but that´s not my war!
> Mine neither...

> Scorp, it seems like it´s a draw...AGAIN! Are we immortal or something?

> Hhrrrrrr...well we´re both spitting blood, can´t say I like it very much...

> Crahahahaha! Heeey...don´t stop fighting now you fools! Mighty giants, craxxx!

> That annoying bird really needs to shutup! Let´s talk some sense with feather-brain!

> Hssssss...soooo you think you´re safe on that little rock, don´t you??

> Let´s trash the rock and grab the little tasty bird! Looks yummy...

> Mohahaha, outstanding Scorp...you found his equally ugly friend! Now it´s my turn...

> PLEASE DON´T KILL US, PLEASE...we´ll leave your domain forever!
> There won´t be a next time, this time you go free! Hhrrr Hhrrr...

> Ssssss...I better leave this battle ground before I´m crushed by those mad giants..

> Soooo we trashed your home SLOOC, sorry about that!
> No worries Scorp...I think we learned our lesson for this time being.
> I´m sure we meet again! It´s in our nature to fight...
> Natural born enemies, but we still forgive each other!
> Of course, bye for now you mighty SLOOC!

Seeing Scorp disappear in the distant, SLOOC thinks of their next encounter for a while wondering if they ever can be friends or will remain enemies in mortal combat forever.

> Do you think we´ll fight in the future?
> It sure seems inevitable! But we´re not that crazy yet...
> No, and being natural born friends seems like a better choice!

Bonus 3D pic of these great warriors! Enjoy!

The last bonus pic shows them in their natural habitat in my garden!

My favourite MOC of you. They look so ugly, it's just too perfect for a spider or a scorpion :D Also the proportions are perfect, but the colours are a bit monotonous. Seriously... Just kidding. It's perfect! |

I love this MOC. It reminds me of hours spent as a child matching up spiders, insects and other creatures in jars. My favorite match was spider vs preying mantis. The use of that cockpit piece for the spider abdomen is pretty ingenious. All in all those look like very lethal arthropods.
When your kids have grown older you could build these creatures from the LDD file and let them play with them :) Should be an interesting battle with lots of carnage!

I studied entomology in college and have kept both spiders and scorpions as pets and these Lego versions are top notch. Excellent work on these awesome arachnids! |

Way Cool. These are definitely the best realistic-looking insect builds I've come across to date. Ultra-Creepy without a doubt! Dude, this is gonna have me checking under the edge of the bed tonight before I get in - uuugghhh!!! - Huss Q. |
