Description Nalgeim

Hi guys,

sorry for my one week break, i had a little stress at work – but now I’m back! The critter I show you this week was absolutely randomly designed – made a lot of fun and it has a special concept too: it’s a recycling creature!
The Nalgeim lives on a tropic world, comparable to the carboniferous age on earth. Its not as big as it may look on the picture, just 20 centimeters. It walks with its stilt-legs through the massive lakes and swamplands of its world, filtering algae and other little stuff out of the water. And for making this more effective it uses one special characteristic of its anatomy: it has an elongated anus which went through the base of its stilt-legs. This funny rectal lays tasty “poo-bags” into the water – and then the magic begins! All the hungry little algae, worms and microbes feed on the poo and finally got filtered by the Nalgeim. And then they become poo too
The rest of its body, specially the back, is used for partner attraction and predicting the eggs from falling into water. Hm . . . is there anything more to say? . . . Maybe you got some questions about this weird creature! Tell me everything you want to know!

P.S.:
Think I finally found my style in designing creatures, but I shall improve my colouring . . .
Keep on watching and please comment!
