Up late burning the midnight oil working on a personal project that I think will be slightly revolutionary for the invert hobby.
A few weeks ago I acquired a gumball machine rack and decided I was going to convert it into a live isopod get what you get machine Or 2. And a few mystery botanical box get what you gets . With a live viewing enclosure full of isopods . Well here we are 3 or so weeks into it. 78% done
1:Enclosure is done with all it's inhabitants
2: units have all been repainted and branded
3: new locks have been put in half the units
4: rock base facade primed 80% painted
Needs some botanical work incorporated into the facade with live plants
Needs to have all the prizes portioned and the capsules representing the prizes loaded and organized ...
With that said ... I'd like to present to you
