Fairly interesting concept, though there are somethings that I think would add to the monster's look.

1. Make the human part a little less human, and a little more monster like so it's not just reusing already made sprites and would give the monster a more unique look in-game. Maybe give it more bug like eyes(red-ish maybe) along with maybe District 9 prawn-like mouth, or a mouth like a giant maggot has.

2. Making the maggot portion more unique so like I said before it doesn't look as if two sprites were merged together.

I like the concept of this though, maybe when finished it could be some sort of Maggot Bossish creature.

Why does it have a red dot on it's forehead? Is it an Indian monster?

I petition the forums to consider our next agenda of business: racism in video games. I'm sure the rules do not allow such behaviour.

Yay, more Frankenmonsters! I hope this is just a demonstration of the concept and not a serious effort.

Here is an example for a really cool half-woman-half-monster boss monster from Ragnarok Online:

its just a demonstration of a bad concept....(thats the point)...i put it up to be out done by other concept art/artiest ....to get lots of ideas in the air ...im glad ppl are looking at this but my hope was to inspire and be inspired by art ,and not a "this is good/bad " comments..

"what A scorpion Queen might look like"--indeed...i like the idea (but not made out of hacked up sprites)..what you put up got your idea across grate :twisted: (and the kidds would look like...i can try to think it up :? :twisted: )http://bugguide.net/node/view/53887/bgimage)

" Frankenmonsters!"---lol are grate (imo) and can be used lots of ways.....BUT (agen) not made out of hacked up sprites..thay need there own to look good and fit right (imo)..

thanks for the example...
