2025 May Post 05 - Hybrid Queen Critter
Added 2025-05-25 17:45:06 +0000 UTCSo, I also wanted to practice composition this month. Specifically composition where the character extends outside the frame, and using lighting to focus on details and emphasize specific things.
My idea for this creature was, a Zerg queen, but hybridized with a Xel Naga. A creature that can serve as an insect queen - laying lots of eggs, while being psionically powerful enough to also control her brood.
Not 100% sure I like how the face turned out, but I don't think I can do better right now. Maybe I can do a redesign in the future. (Usually I tweak elaborate pictures like this at some point.)
Next up, I'm going to try to do two more from the poll, before I run out of May.

2025-05-26 21:37:01 +0000 UTCI dunno, this is probably going to be a one-off. :)

2025-05-26 21:36:47 +0000 UTCI'm very glad you like it. :) It will get tweaked a little when I can look at it with a fresh eye.

2025-05-26 21:36:06 +0000 UTCThese are things from Starcraft. Her body is meant to be spider-like, with six legs. (Zerg queens have 4.)

2025-05-26 21:36:01 +0000 UTCThank you! Maybe she's just thrilled to have the assistance of someone with more reach. ;)

2025-05-26 21:35:23 +0000 UTCThanks! I am definitely coming back to tweak the face design though!

2025-05-26 01:35:23 +0000 UTCThis is such a great perspective shot, and i love how thrilled the queen looks reacting with her tiny arms!

2025-05-25 22:13:21 +0000 UTCInteresting critter - while I don't know any of those you've based her off, it is certainly unique. The whole idea of a monster so big, most of it doesn't even fit in the frame is interesting... Leaves up a lot to the imagination aswell.
