"In space, nobody hears you scream". On Beta Corvi IV it is "everybody hears you scream".
About this creation
Corvinian wurms evolved in dark depths of their home gas giant Beta Corvi VI. Flying endlessy, they never stop. Miners that are mining gas there say that Corviwurm redefines word "agressive". It is not known why they try to attack ships; while wurms are definitively carnivore, they consider metal as something to digest. Or, at least try to do so...

Corvinian wurms wary in size; biggest encountered had 4-meter long body, and much larger wings. However, most of them are a bit smaller than average human (when considering the body only, not wings).

Senses of the wurm are a mystery. While it has an eye-like structure, atmosphere of gas giant is impenetrable for light, at least there where wurms are found.

It is also not sure what the corviwurm is hunting for. While there are lots of small insect-like creatures on Beta Corvi IV, wurms were never seen being intrested with them. But who knows what is in depths...

And now some model info.
This is actually pretty simple modular construction, which even does not use click hinges (except for "arms"). Amount of body pieces can be freely adjusted, to make longer or shorter worms. Nothing stops you also from making it four-winged or two-headed, just add more technic connectors and proper modules :P
Wings are made of painted thick paper. They are very rigid and durable, and additionally installed on technic-axle frame.

Nice job on the wings. Looks like a dangerous creature. Beta Corvi IV? Sounds like StarControl 2 to me... |
