concept creature: bug-man-chimaera

[el_kyrre]

I call it done!
Wanted to make some kind of mixture between a grasshopper and a male humanoid. With his strong hindlegs he can leap great distances to attack his prey.

In this picture i imagine him to feast on his prey, in some old ruin. A cathedral for example... While in the mids of eating some noise is coming from outside the ruin. There is a big hole in the roof where light is coming through, and he looks up to that spot in surprise, like an animal who gets interrupted.
I´ll try and paint that scene as soon as i got some more time!

hope you like it, C&C welcome as always!

hey i like the form. all i can say is that the hind legs need some more leg-room (no pun intended) that will show more realism interms of movement and life. I canna wait for the coloured version. :evilbat:

Looks like a good work of anatomy. It is very real as in you can see how it would work. The arms have a great dynamic type pose to them. Colour and make a scene around it plz:D

That's a good idea and neat concept. The drawing is bugging me a little around the hind legs and chin area. I think if you worked on clarifying your form a little on this it would be more of a gem than it already is. Nice colors too, but the modeling/rendering doesn't have me totally convinced yet.:hmm:
Keep it up! :chug:
