Are you tired of struggling to get your seedlings to take root in partially terraformed soil? Tired of native species trying to kill your precious plants? Then the T-Anqebut edaphological device from Selmek Geoindustries is for you! The success of the T-Anqebut (acronym for Tulaubt Anqebut, or Ground Spider) is due to the reliability of its GAP (Ground Analysis and Preservation) system. The T-Anqebut device lives up to its name "ground spider" with its high mobility system, which allows it to cover crop areas in a pre-programmed series of profiles that a settler can adapt to his needs.

GROUND SPIDER CONSTRUCTION PROCESS Here is another scenery element created for our Infinity miniatures pictures, the T-Anqebut edaphological device, or ground spider. As you can see from this picture, this time I adapted some of the masks we use in the molding room of our workshop. Since we have several of them in storage, I had the opportunity to "mass produce" various similar decor items. In order to adapt them to the decor element we had in mind, it was necessary to make them stand as straight as possible, so I placed their legs in a manner similar to the base of old alarm clocks. For the first phase of detailing, I used: Plastic card, parts from some Infinity miniatures, steel wire, some springs, a piece of plastic tube, a sheet of transparent plastic card and a thin mosquito net. As you can see from the pictures, I had to add some containers and parts from some of Infinity's T.A.G.'s and drones to make the back area more detailed. One of the most remarkable aspects of the rear part is the effect created by the placement of some cables between the rear feet and the rear housing of the device. Because of the shine of the cables, coming from headphones, it looks like some kind of fluid is passing under their transparent surface. Once completed, all that remains is to prime them with a base coat and decide on the color scheme. As you can see, the main color is a medium gray and I tried to make some of the pieces stand out with orange color. I used green and also some blue to apply directly and also to shade the gray areas. Finally, an earthy brown color was applied to the lower legs, giving a weathered effect. The lighting was done with the colors white, ice yellow and yellow. Apart from that, the shading was managed with black and a little red color. As can be seen in the final images, to paint a medium-sized decorative element, it is not necessary to use a large and varied color palette. It is enough to use a limited color palette to obtain an impressive and realistic result. Finally, I would like to point out that by recycling items, you can make very curious and effective decor elements to make your Infinity tables more exciting. I hope you like our floor spiders and I encourage you to continue to recreate the futuristic elements that shape the Infinity universe using objects from around you.
