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.

Thanks! She would definitely be an interesting plot character. ^^

Hehe. That was not originally intended, but it worked out. :)

I dunno, this is probably going to be a one-off. :)

I'm very glad you like it. :) It will get tweaked a little when I can look at it with a fresh eye.
Meanybeany Productions
Thank you!

These are things from Starcraft. Her body is meant to be spider-like, with six legs. (Zerg queens have 4.)

Thank you! Maybe she's just thrilled to have the assistance of someone with more reach. ;)

Thanks! I am definitely coming back to tweak the face design though!

Oh good, why that's very good! Yes, I like that! Love the perspective and size. The design of the critter is awesome too~

This is such a great perspective shot, and i love how thrilled the queen looks reacting with her tiny arms!

Interesting 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.
