The Simple Life(forms)

Hi,

have I told you that I'm a fan of simple lifeforms? Indeed, I am! I always freak out when I read or see something about the ediacarian or cambrian fauna - it's so stunning how these simple animals are already complexe and agile. This compilation was made cause of boreness and perplexity - but the result is something I definately like! All critters are species from one biosphere I've already shown, it's called Bakyrn and is a world at the level of the ordovician era. Here are the first sketches: [link]
So, enough talked, lets come to the actors:

a. Wattkneifer (tideland pincher) - a real nasty omnivore animal, pinching and eating plants and smaller animals around the clock

b. Kaiserknolle (Kaiser's corm) - a beautiful sea plant, a mix of coral and kelp, some subspecies have entered the shore regions to conquer the land masses of Bakyrn

c. Großer Strangler/Strandangler (great beach angler) - a lazy dweller, quite similar to monkfish

d. Nesselschnecke (nettle slug) - another nasty creature, comparable to globefish, but more aggressive and hungry

e. Porenkoralle (pore coral) - ? don't ask me, what this is . . . something like a sponge with algae symbionts? makes bubbles!

f. Wogenschlucker (billow gulper) - a filter invertebrate, really huge for a invertebrate - its about two meters long

g. Riffgespenst (reef spook) - a strange and creepy animal, floating along the reefs of Bakyrn, reminds me of something from Barlowe

h. Wucherfüßer (extortiopode) - a worm-like animal, the legs are growing without end til it reaches about 10 meters, then the Wucherfüßer splits itself up in 5 to 8 parts (not reproduction!), every part has the same gender, this way to live boosts the chances to survive

i. Wanderhelm (hiking helmet) - a snail-like animal, really slow and kind of boring, but I like that helmet!

j. Boot des Verderbens (boat of perdition) - a shadow from the depth of sea, no one knows really much about it, but its definately not friendly!

So, thats it! Hope you like my little and simple lifeforms! My favourite this time is the Wanderhelm. Which one do you prefer? Please tell me, keep on watching and dont forget to comment!
