did you dissect the animal,remove the flesh from the exoskeleton and then glue it back together?

WOW ! That is an AMAZING piece of modelling !!!! Yes, how did you remove the flesh from the crab shell prior to making the vignette to ensure the "deceased" relatives (i.e. ants) do not take "revenge" on the "slayer" ?!! WELL DONE, anyway !!!

I live only a few miles from the beach and have an affinity for the middle ages, but would never have combined the two. One of the coolest vignettes I have ever seen.

A very cool and original idea, very well executed. I didn’t notice it is in 1/32nd scale. It is a really good paint job.
