Metal Earth 3D Metal Model Black Widow Spider ME1038

Metal Earth ME1038 Black Widow Spider is a build-it-yourself 3D metal model depicting the Western black widow. From the Metal Earth range dedicated to metal models, it is assembled from 1.5 pre-cut steel sheets and, once put together, measures 12.2 cm long, 10 cm wide and 4.6 cm high. The difficulty level is listed as moderate, and this model is recommended from age 14.

The Western black widow is a venomous spider found in the western regions of North America. The female is especially known for the red hourglass-shaped marking located on the lower part of her abdomen. This species makes a particularly striking subject for a collectible model focused on arthropods, wildlife, and natural history curiosities.

Like other Metal Earth models, this kit starts as flat, pre-cut metal pieces. The parts are removed from the sheets, shaped, and then connected together to gradually create a 3D volume replica. Assembly requires precision, method, and care when bending the tabs and joining the small parts.

With its compact size, this black widow spider in metal is suited both for a model display case and for a collection of animal, insect, and arthropod models. It’s a fitting project for model builders who want to work on an intermediate-difficulty 3D metal model.
