<div class="IPBDescription">concept pice for W-I-M-P</div> This is a concpet pice for my pet project called "What if Meteors Prevail" and it borrows heavily on themes commonly found within 40's and 50's b-rate horror sci-fi movies. This particulair design is supposed to be a cross between a fly and a fly trap plant.

Comments and critiques are always welcome.

*edit updated the pic, fixed the legs and wings

    If I ever run across somthing like that, I hope I'm packing serious heat. In the form of bugspray & an 8-gage. Very detailed work - I like it.

    the eyes/mouth look like a "angler" or "angel" fish (i think) the one with the glowing little bulb thing... that lures other fish into it's mouth with it...

    go watch "finding nemo" if your still confused.

    Very nice piece of work there

    The fly has been done well, and it's colours are very vivid....sort of like those bugs which are poisonous in the forests.

    Extremely well done overall <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I would be either scared of that thing, or I would swat it, based on it's body size. Can we get an image that accurately reflects how large this thing is?

    hehe, well im glad you guys are taking a liking to it, as far as sizing goes, if you can use your imagination, the mouth part of the fly, is about the size of 1/2 of a "average" man. I will post a reference pic later on today if you gusy want.

    Actually, think about the facts:
    A Venus Flytrap rarely grows larger than 10cm
    A housefly never breaks 2cm

    Do the math...this thing is tiny. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    if they are 2cm, what if they're in a <i>swarm</i>?

    you'd be screwed over there. so...
