A firebug searches for food on a withered plant. These small bugs are highly sociable and are often found in large colonies of several hundred individuals. I combined two 9mm extension tubes for this image.
Hey guys it's Alex here with another Dc figure
So I made Firefly from Batman Arkham Knight, the new helmet from The Wasp was just perfect for this dude👌
The torso is from Gray Squadron Pilot and the legs came in the series 9 on the Alien Avenger
Also the jet pack was the hardest part to make because it's really difficult to respect the minifigure scale and there are a lot of small details😩
So, what do you think ? I hope you liked it and don't forget to leave a comment !

Taken for the www.flickr.com/groups/activeassignment/ Wildlife in your neighboorhood! These are so-called Firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus) which are living in the wood next to our garden!
Larva L5 (ultimo estadio)
Las chinches zapateras
son probablemente las chinches más abundante de la fauna ibérica
Las larvas pasan por cinco estadios, con una duración de entre 17 y 24 días en condiciones de laboratorio constantes, aunque en la naturaleza se alarga considerablemente. Las larvas fracasan en su desarrollo a temperaturas inferiores a los 15 °C, probablemente debido al cese de actividad alimentaria a bajas temperaturas.
This bright red little guy is a firebug (Pyrrhocoris apterus). The scientific name actually means "wingless fire bug", but that is not entirely true.
This one has wings - it just can't fly which I suppose makes them somewhat pointless.
This one along with a whole slew of its brethren live underneath a couple of large thuja trees next to our house and that's where the brown structures around it come from - it's just dried shoots fallen to the ground.
Legero tanke modela 2 de 90 mm malrapido kanona modifaja 1 (parasutaj) was developed by the request of Asparantian Air Forces to provide an airborne armored vehicle capable of performing general tasks such as reconnaissance and limited anti-tank support. The Fajrocime, or "Firebug", was armed with 90-mm low velocity smoothbore cannon equipped with HESH and HEAT rounds. The main armament is paired with coaxial 12.7-mm machine gun.
Loosely based on various airborne vehicles of the "fifties" era - starting with the well-known Engin Leger de Combat to the more obscure ones such as 1955 Chimera tank destroyer (generally known as a "Manticore light tank" thanks to one certain videogame)
MANY THANKS FOR YOUR KIND COMMENTS AND FAVS........ PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY PHOTOSTREAM, FOR GENERAL PHOTOS OF NATURE ACROSS THE SPECTRUM OF WILDLIFE.
This strikingly handsome bug is found throughout most of Europe. Owing to climate change however, its range is steadily extending towards more temperate regions. Until recently, it was a rare visitor in the south of England, but is now starting to become more common and widespread. I photographed this one a few hundred yards from my home in South Yorkshire
It is often confused with the firebug, which at first glance looks very similar. The cinnamon bug, is between 9-12mm in length and is quite hairy. It is found in dry meadows and is associated with a range of plants. While it is active from April to October, it can be seen throughout the year. This is because adults, which tend to emerge in August/September, overwinter and make an appearance the following spring.

The firebug (Pyrrhocoris apterus) is a common insect of the family Pyrrhocoridae, about 1 cm. long. Firebugs generally mate in April and May. Their diet consists primarily of seeds from lime trees and mallows. They can often be found in groups near the base of lime tree trunks, on the sunny side. They can be seen in tandem formation when mating which can take from 12 hours up to 7 days. The long period of copulating is probably used by the males as a form of ejaculate-guarding under high competition with other males.

Kowal bezskrzydły wygrzewający się w jesiennym słonku :)
Kowal bezskrzydły, kowal dwuplamek (Pyrrhocoris apterus) – gatunek pluskwiaka z rodziny kowalowatych, pospolity w Polsce. Osiąga długość około 1 cm. Często pojawia się w dużych gromadach u podstawy pni drzew liściastych, szczególnie lipy. Jest gatunkiem zazwyczaj nieszkodliwym dla środowiska, choć może uszkadzać młode drzewka w szkółkach i wyrządzać szkody w winnicach. Wczesną wiosną owady te budzą się i gromadzą w nasłonecznionych miejscach. Ich kopulacja trwa długo – często ponad 12 godzin, niekiedy nawet do 7 dni. W jej trakcie samiec i samica często poruszają się sczepione odwłokami. Z tego powodu kowale bezskrzydłe bywają popularnie nazywane tramwajami.

"I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise
He did the mash
He did the monster mash"

Hey guys it's Alex here with a back view of the jet pack
The jet pack is my favorite part and the hardest to make because as you can see, the system is very complex and fragile
So, what do you think ? I hope you liked it and don't forget to leave a comment !

The European Firebug (Pyrrhocoris apterus) sure take their time mating. These guys can be coupled for hours (no, really) and walk around in pairs - one of them in reverse of course.
One of the others probably didn't want to wait for them to pass so he or she went straight over them instead.

Thanks to Mary Faith for the flower ID.
The firebug is easily recognizable due to its striking red and black coloration. Pyrrhocoris apterus is distributed throughout the Palaearctic from the Atlantic coast of Europe to northwest China. It has also been reported from the USA, Central America and India. It has been reported as recently expanding its distribution northwards into mainland UK.

Here's one alone, a Firebug, Pyrrhocoris apterus. You've probably mostly seen them in large groups and chances are pairs were procreating, 'randy' as these perfectly innocuous bugs are. You might even blush pink or scarlet when you realise their Happy Conjugation can take up to seven days.
Looking carefully, I did spy another on a nearby Mallow Flower; whether they intended to meet for tea... who knows. But I hurried home in the nasty wind for that Hot Brew.
