Bulletproof: Looking forward to that.

StoopidDonky: Hmm, Evaluate the principal features of a waterstrider: long legs in a particular position, small rectangular body (you have that already). Perhaps a flimsier look would work, why don´t you try creating new legs? Remember that the legs don´t have to be vertical though .. try using the same configuration this insect so succesfully uses.

Hope it helps ...
