I've sketched this:

Please check the link and let's brainstorm about ideas you think I should consider. Please post reasoned out suggestions. E. g.:
BAD: "Make it... erhm, better ( )"
GOOD: "I don't like the postion of the spines. Couldyou place them nearer to the head and more numerous?"
Illustrate your suggestions with photos if needed.
New creature: Royal maggot
In real life maggots are the larve phase of flies. They become a pupa first before becomming a fly. But the maggots from the mana world could skip this phase and morph directly into winged creatures. This creature could be right in the metamorphosis stage.

You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.
Please elaborate why don't you see it.Rotonen wrote:I'm not exactly certain about combining that kind of wings with burrowing underground.
Well, why not both? they aren't mutually exclusive. I thought that at this stage the body should look pretty much like the current maggot (maybe bigger) while the wings have to be very elegant and colorful that's why I posted the photos of the fish and the peacock, they don't necessariliy need to be exactly like that, it was a reference for the color, the shapes and the patterns. I want contrast and colorful patterns with colors that say "don't touch me, I'm poisonous". The following stages (which I haven't planned thoroughly) transform the maggot into a multicolor beautiful insect.Rotonen wrote: Should be either more elegant or bulkier.
