A breed between a starnose mole and a mantis!

Adore this design. This is the kind of monster design that could fit in almost anything that needed a good unique creature.

This is one of those great Mortasheen that not only has an appearance that's immediately striking but is also full of interesting subtleties.
Those arms are an incredible design. Not content with mole claws in its fingers, it also has them as dewclaws and Batman gauntlets. The head is also fantastic. It's like what a star-nosed mole would look like if it tried harder, plus antennae to remind us that it's a cricket. The body suits it well. It gives the impression of an exaggerated cartoon macho guy. The legs really remind me of a Kenner Alien figure. Lastly, I think the stunted petal-like wings are a nice touch. I like the texture you've given them. They look so pretty and orderly compared to the rest of the monster.
This one's an instant classic.

The weird claw arrangement actually follows a mole cricket's actual foreleg structure somewhat, they have truly bizarre digging appendages!

I guess that is sort of what you'd get from crossing mole cricket limbs with vertebrate limbs. At any rate, it's really cool.

Bad ass monster this is what creatures need to be, not Twilight or sparkle creatures.

Horrificbulgingvestigialeye the Sailor Mutant? Awesome!
You're very good at portraying a fusion of internal and external skeletons.

I love the shading on this. it's soft on something so deformed and horrifying but it works really well.

Being a four-limbed fleshy vertebrate isn't enough? : p

Oh man I love mole crickets. I've only seen a live one once, while on a hike. This is adorable.
