Some new glass Aliens creatures, just need mounting up. I started with the three eyed Martian hermit crab, and decided he'd use a shell discarded from another creature. I wanted it to have a built up feel, like the way cadis fly lave make protective shells out of bits of debris, or other creatures 'weave' cases that they build up to protect themselves. Then of course I started to wonder what sort of creature would have lived in a shell like that..... maybe I really do need to get out more! :D :D :D ;D Thanks for looking! ;D

Love 'em all!! ;D ;D And I particularly like the woven cases - brilliant.
They are really great Glenn. Something really different.
I love the three eyed red one.
They are great!
They are so different, my fave is the one with the claws!
I love them all.
Thank you everyone for the kind compliments! :) I did enjoy the 'glass crocheting' to make the pods/shells, must do some more! ;D
Love them to bits......they really look like they belong in a coral reef. I love everything to do with the under water world. I did some work for the scottish team that won a gold at chelsea last year for their jacques cousteau inspired display........your creatures would have been happy there I think! Cheers Claire x
Weird and wonderful! 8)
They are all really great but my favourite is the third one down with claws!
Brilliant :) :)
They are brilliant, love the 3 eyed hermit crab, he definitely deserves a name.
