My god that's one horrendous looking thing, seeing that (our size) very close up would be scary!

Lol... They are quite scary to look at. But they have such amazing details that the normal human eye can't see.

Cool! Cause thats what I was trying to achieve. Some people just swat the guys without taking their time to notice how complex these creatures acutally are. Thanx for your comment.
