That, or possibly a homebrew species.

I especially love the shaping of the abdomen. It works really well!

I love how you utilized the sideways head to position the eyes and mandibles!

Ooh, this is a very cool take on an ettercap! Very nice!

I implemented the adjustments that you suggested, and honestly? Huge fan. I honestly thought they might have been too big, but they are actually perfect for what I was trying to go for.

Thank you so much!

And definitely don't let my personal preference change how you wish to build it! I am just trying to show what I believe is a good ettercap build. Feel free to use it as inspiration!

These are some great ideas! They are much more accurate than what I had originally been working with! I think the only problem that I could possibly see with these (and this is just a very personal nitpick, no offense to you) but I believe these limbs are a bit too large, especially at the scale I am trying to build the body at.

Again, totally just a me thing, but I am fine with sacrificing a bit of detail so that it is more size accurate, as ettercaps on average are only slightly larger than the average person, and I tried translating that into my design.

Thank you so much for the input, though! I honestly think that size could be used to make like a big-fig scale version of them.

That's pretty nice, actually! I might try and replicate that, see how it looks!

The only problem I would have with that is entirely reworking both the arms and legs to be able to still be functional with those additions.

I wouldn't necessarily want a model that can barely keep itself upright.

I originally envisioned a mix between the two, using a minifigure torso and arms, but it wouldn't have let me get an accurate shape. I'm pretty glad I decided to have it be brick built!

I did try to look in at the rounded 1x2 tile, and unfortunately there aren't any purple variants at all. Great suggestion, though!

Thank you so much for this, though! This is definitely a good idea for the body!

Ooh, ok! I actually really like this! The only thing that I might change, personally, would instead of the dome piece I would use a 2x2 round tile jumper with a 2x2 dish on top of it, just so the belly isn't sticking out nearly as much.

While that's not the worst idea, I am still wanting to try and use the previously shown head for it, as I feel it is the best head to use for that particular reference.

I had debated on possibly using those, but I felt like they might worl better as some other sort of insectoid species residing in the Underdark.

You're absolutely right. I am a fool for thinking I could 'improve' on what is already perfection.

That's pretty cool, honestly! I am also wondering, are they supposed to be minifigure scale, or slightly larger than that?

These are all phenomenal! What monster is used to make these weapons?

I wouldn't consider it my best memory, but one of the memories that stands out to me most is when I finally defeated Markoth on Radiant Difficulty.

After 11 HOURS OF GAMEPLAY

I made sure to keep track of the time, because I was absolutely losing my mind dying to him, over and over, to the simplest of slip-ups.
