Thanks guys! 
I will definitely be doing a run of these in the near future!
As soon as I'm done with the sculpt, I will be starting an Interest List in the Junkyard. So, stay tuned here when I announce that I have posted it, and then you can post your interest there.thumbsup

Did you bake the polymer clay then carve out the detail from the hardened shape? Or did you carve the detail out from the soft polymer clay then bake it?
The device is looking great and I'm keen to see it finished.
Good luck.
Thanks!
I baked it before I started carving. It's a hollow shell, so holding it or attempting to sculpt it while wet would have altered the shape of the shell. I can also apply more clay and bake it again if I need to, which is why I like polymer clay so much.
It is hollow, and will have the legs that you can pull in and out. So, you'll be able to display it with everything extracted out (Needle Arm & Legs), or closed up!
thumbsupNot sure yet how much room I will have after the legs are in, but I'm hoping I'll be able to add a flat area with the gears and Bug...

Just a little over month ago I was watching this film and wondering if anyone would ever attempt to make a replica of this beautiful prop, considering the movie is not as well known as other Del Toro projects anymore. So glad to see this project here.
It's looking super promising, and I'd be really interested in the run too.

Will you make a run if you finished it?
UPDATE:
Finished the Back!!!
I just need to mold and cast some Leg and Claw pieces and finish assembling the prototype!
After that, I'll mold everything and start an Interest List in the Junkyard!

Fantastic work! I had the privilege of authenticating the real prop when I worked for Propstore, which later sold in their first auction. This looks spot on, mazing work!
Brenton, you are talented brother, such great work!!!!

This is totally gorgeous! I ended up here while researching some reference material for an upcoming art book based on the movie. Does anyone know where I could find any photos of other props from the movie? Specifically the two different angel statues and the assorted cards and brochures Perlman is using throughout - I've found props and photos from the movie incredibly hard to track down so far, especially the angel statue that the Cronos Device was in....
