PainKiller - Insect

[PainKiller]

I've drawn up a few sketches but my scanner doesn't work with Vista (it barely works with XP, really have to get a new one) so I'll go ahead and post some of the reference pictures I've been using for ideas.

Model is started, I like the direction it's heading.

Still messing with ideas, blocking out the major body parts before I go into the smaller details.

I know you already got your concept and you are well on your way. But you might like this insect aswell, since it has alot of the features those insects on the pictures have.

I was actually looking at pictures of earwigs for references as well!

The model's done but I feel it's too much like an ant. I like the way it looks but I'm thinking maybe I should do something more original?

It's still under the 1000 tri limit.
