Splinterland Art Contest Week 342: Mantoid

For this week splinterland contest, i will be making a post on the character, Mantoid. It's a quite unfamiliar character and it looks like a matured insect. I tried to make it look like an alien, and a bit scary too.

A Mantoid is a skinny insect, resembling a praying mantis, about the size of a Goblin’s head. As it approaches its prey, the Mantoid may tilt its head inquisitively from side to side and rub its front legs together. The head tilting is actually an esophageal stretch as the Mantoid prepares to eat something wider than its throat. What looks like leg rubbing is actually the systematic sharpening of a thousand tiny razors, preparing them to cut through flesh like butter. Link

These are the steps to the drawing:

Thank you!
