Guitar design concept

At one point, I decided to make a guitar in my moldmaking class as a final project. We were to fabricate an object out of high-density urethane foam, make a mold of it and cast it. Might as well utilize the 1-2 inch thick foam boards which are just about the thickness of a guitar.

I somewhat drew inspiration from my first project, the headcrab with its four legs, and certain spiders to come up with something completely unergonomical. I used my old Yamaha RGS 121 as a base model and I'm building around that so I don't really have control over the headstock and fretboard design. I haven't yet decided on a paint job.
