Chris Budny level-deluxe April 07, 2006

Seeing this makes me wish it was a still from a stop-motion animation movie! Of course a scorpion attack comes to mind, but it also sort of reminded me of The Matrix movies, with their bizarre spidery robots. Very cool idea, and nice bending work on the fork legs! But I really love the "inch worm" effect of the spoon's body. The applied effects really add to the image, and improve on the original, I think. #2617526
