Anyone who knows me from the mongoose board might remember that my warrior bugs are obsessed with being 'Accurate' to the move.
Thus I added the tail fins (used warrior arm claws) to the back and shaved the bottom jaw into a 1 toothed piece.
I've continued my obsession and am building 3 super accurate warrior bugs for a diorama piece.
Modifications:
A) Top Jaw piece used for a bottom jaw.
B) Alternate placement of hip piece
C) Used shaved down leg claws for tail fins, the shape is more accurate than arm claws.
D) Used rippler mandibles for the small side mandibles Warriors have (barely visible in most scenes from movies)
E) Used rippler light claw arms for arms, as the shape is more apropriate, used Warrior Leg Claws for the arm claws... shape more appropriate.
F) Used model filler to form a proper 'forehead' and raise the top jaw above the main body, so instead of top of the skull being level it is raised.
G) Did my best painting it... still not a good enough painter... sigh.

Thank you- Look forward to seeing the plasma bugs... they are always allot of fun for me personally.
In the planning stages for the diorama, so much of this stuff isn't attached/set in stone. The MI and Chicken Hawk and bushes are staying put, otherwise I'm open to suggestions, two of those Warriors are just place holders.

Not exactly. The Harasser is the tunneling Bug HQ, it's more a frontline commander than the other two (the Brain is the supporting one and the Overseer the flying one). It can drive other bugs forward and has an attack that can even slash Marauders into parts (similar to the Chopper Bug's special attack), however it's psychic abilities are rather limited (for a Bug HQ).
But yes, there is a wormy AA Bug, the Stinger, which can even stay burried while engaging Air units with it's living Ammunition. I'll do one of those next.
