King Cricket (Concept Sketch)

At long last, after a good winter break, its time to begin next modeling project :) Here's the sketch of my next creature, which I gave a temporary name, King Cricket. Many of its features are based on the anatomy of the Mole Cricket, with the mouth function inspired from the mandibles of house cricket, weta, and Jerusalem Cricket. The creature is also the combination of arthropod and mammal features, with thick reddish muscle similar to that of mammals hidden beneath the hard insect like exoskeleton.
The modeling project may take longer than my previous three 3d modeling works, because I decided to make each body parts of the creature separately in order to emphasize the joints of the insect, while sculpt each details of the animal like muscles on each parts.

Practice Work (Sea Horse Entity)

The test modeling I did after getting inspirations from the life cycle of Leafy Sea Dragon that I saw from the documentary, Blue Planet. I also referenced the bronze statues of creatures from ancient asian mythology in order to emphasize both gracefulness and exotic features.
