This is the current WIP of the bionic leg (rear).

The leg has been designed to increase the strength of the Gerbils leg more so then the speed at which the Gerbil runs. This is to aid the prevention (alongside the use of the spine reinforcement plates) of the Gerbil being crushed, either by mouse trap or foot.

The black claws will be where the external addition is to be clamped to the Gerbils leg.

started modelling the gerbil itself.
nothing fancy yet however.

open to any comments/critque :)

[jeef]

ok, time for background story, ill keep it short ;)

The Gerbil.

This little creature is very curious and will literally stick its nose in on anything. Despite its ability to fight other gerbils and mice it is very defensless against anything bigger then itself. Ive decided to change that... no longer shall the gerbil be filled with fear from microwaves and blenders! its time for the gerbils to fight back! or at least stand a chance should the need arise...
