Ha, cool. I miss those little buggers, since i've moved from QLD. Such cool bugs. You could pretty much just pic him up, move him onto an object you think looks good, then take more shots. The best kinda model

Your link does have brisbaneinsects in it.
 Though I can't say I recall seeing too many of them. I'd imagine it wasn't hard for a few people to drive them down to Adelaide.Now I have the star wars bar music in my head. |
