"One of the more notable Maschin Krieger inspired builds from this year's Ma.Ktober fest is probably the Baumeister Spinnentier, a "construction arachnid" style zero-G hardsuit, created by Canadian builder Josh Derksen.Clearly the break-out technique Josh has used here is the application of paint to give the model a rusted look (…yes it rains in space, deal with it!). Using paint to artificially ‘weather' LEGO is something I've wanted to do myself for a long time, but have not yet been man enough to attempt. But Josh totally nails it with this creation. Check out his full breakdown to get a look at all of its finer details and play features (which include poseable arms and pincers, and an openable cockpit)."

It may rain in space, but you still need atmosphere for the reaction. ;) |

Outstanding paint work. Yep, oxygen is required for oxidation…only one planet in this solar system with that stuff in the atmosphere…only one planet where there is "fire" as we know it….please do not trust me. Do your own research ;)

Yeah, it doesn't rust in space. There is a chemical reaction that does happen because of the exposure to solar wind. If memory serves, it's the reason why asteroids are the color they are. |

I love Ma.K.- but a lot of the modelers tend to suffer from "rustitis". |
