The hind legs seem pretty thin compared to the prosoma. Wouldn't he fall over with this kind of proportions?

Nicely done! I like the fact you gave it a thicker neck. Seems more natural.

Glad you've noticed that!

No problem! I've been doing that with many of my dinosaurs and other prehistoric fauna too, often taken reference from modern crocodilians, monitor lizards, and various birds.
