[Tyler]

Now thats a ROACH, great job!

[Terrormaster]

That bad mamma has got to be from the Lakefront in Nawlins - those guys get pretty big down there - hehehe, really brings back memories of the city I actually WANTED to forget when I moved north.

Nice work and I can't wait for the how-to.

[Spanky]

awsome cock-a-roach!!

[Ghoul Friday]

lol I like a roach who knows how to party. :) Love the hairs (are they hairs?) on his legs.

[choman77034]

I seriously doubt I would kill that roach if I stomped on it with BOTH feet!!! :eek:

GREAT work & glad to see you got such a big project done in time!

[Frighteners Entertainment]

That is one nasty bug!!!!!

I like it, but don't want it either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spooky1]

Creepy roach, Papa. It looks too real, I'd hate to find that in my kitchen.

Was the Tequila bottle full when you started the project?

[GothicCandle]

Hope I didn't miss too much. If I missed any major parts, you can ground me. I could use the time to get some props finished.

Love,
Your #1 son

Great Job....very scary....very creative. Good Luck !

[ScreamingScarecrow]

Great Prop! BigBugs truly scare the tobacco juice out of me!

"He/she?"

you mean you haven't NAMED it?? I thought **everyone** named their home made props!!?
Okay- let's take suggestions for names...(and by the way- do roaches have girl or boy parts? you might have to add on a roach peenie....)
