Scorpions again

Scorpions again

After studying the Scorpion posted recently I decided it didn't seem
quite right. It only had 6 legs instead of 8, there were not enough
body or tail sections and the tail seemed to have got caught up with
the right lower leg.

Head and claws didn't seem quite right either - so I ended up with
2 new versions.

Hmmmm....
