Allo!

 I'M looking for an Ascii preying mantis If you have one, could you plese 
show me?  Or even give me an idea of how to start..  I can't seem to 
visualize the shape when I try to make it with ascii characters. :)
Thank you!

I am also (seperate request) Looking for a monster.. not any well-known 
monster, so this could be a project! I am looking for something that 
looks like a cross between the `Alien' and a mantis (A spiky, armored, 
nasty horror) If any of you have a monster that you've come up with that 
fits the bill or even comes close, could you please help me?

Thank you!
