Insect creature idea - Chrysid Art Miles | 4/10/2017 | 8 | Here's a sketch of a creature I drew on an envelope. It's based on a bug character I made, which is based on Chrysididae, a type of beautiful, multicolored iridescent wasp. If I ever go through with creating a breed for these, the males would look like the image and be cyan/blue+yellow/orange, and the females would have a larger tuft of chest chitin/fur, and be a more teal-cyan with some magenta.
I have an idea for an Ark terrarium to go along with this called 'Crystalline Growth' (working title). The story behind it is the Ark, after travelling through space for quite some time, began growing new terrarium(s) because it had so much excess bioenergy from the Capitilla, and maybe it gathered a bunch of fuel from a nebula or something.
The new area created by the bioenergy manifested itself like giant glowing cyan/purple crystals (sort of like that one part of Pilla's awesome Other Lone Shee's Ark metaroom), because they look cool and I like crystals. Also, the room would be on the underside of the Ark, so the glass bubble (like the others that surround areas on the Ark) would be at the bottom of the room. (even though the gravity on the ship is artificial and it would probably be right side up if it was realistic shhhh)
Sorry about the bad phone filters, it was pretty dark. |

They remind me a little bit of Ettins!

The model and the drawing are both adorable! I love expressive bug friends.
Since they are a different "species" than Norns, I wonder if these sorts of bugs could have a home in the Kreatures development...

Such a pretty design!
I hope someday they and the ark terrarium will become a reality.

Thanks Here's a 3d model i made of my character I based these off of,
for an idea of how the coloration might look.
