Caius Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Since I had to go to Tucson on buisiness, I stopped by Things for Thinkers and browsed a bit. Found the stirges that I have been wanting that the local shop does not have. Everyone needs stirges. You can wipe out an entire second level party with a couple of stirges. Muwahahahahah (but I digress) I failed to notice till I got them home that Bob sculpted them with 6 legs. 6?? Six?? We all know that stirges have four (4) legs. Now the question. Which legs to remove? Would the look better snipping the center, or aft most legs? -Caius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they had 6 to tell you the truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enchantra Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 I was under the impression they had six legs. Just paint them up the way they are. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital [email protected] Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 I recommend 5 legs or maybe 7 legs. You just don't see enough monsters with an odd amount of legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caius Posted November 9, 2003 Author Share Posted November 9, 2003 Well according to the description they have 8 legs. (MM3.5) But you're right the artist's picture only has 4. I thought they had 6 to tell you the truth. Clearly a typo. The 2nd edition MM lists 4 legs (picture shows 4), 1st edition does not specify. (picture shows four). I'm thinking the aft most leggs go. -Caius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
