Man this thing will give me nightmares...
Based on coloration I'd expect this critter to be a climbing-stealth-burst-hunter.
Hiding in the dark so that your defenses are down, using various flexes of its "wings" to hide its true shape.
sneaking closer, slowly moving from one hiding place to the next (with a preference for High vantage spots),
then when it knows that it can not get any closer...
It suddenly explodes into a lightning fast charge, while still using its flaps and coloration to conceal its move!
The collision alone can be fatal to the victim, but this creature grabs on with its two fore legs, latches on to the prey with a DEADLY CRUSHING BITE
and the remaining four limbs....
Raking and clawing.
its a Leaper. like a tiger or a wolf spider. it climbs up, and then leaps on prey from a very long distance.
The coloration masking its presence as it glides through its tremendous arcing leap. diving now, accelerating, faster, faster...
by the time the victim hears a rustling on the wind - it is already over.
This thing is a top down killer. It wants you to be under it. it wants to use its weight, body mass, and kill with as much energy efficiency as possible.
I suspect this creature (while most certainly capable of going it alone) is also a Pack hunter. like a pride of lions, pack of wolves, or swarm of sharks.
the two smaller limbs work like the deft hands of a surgeon, cutting away armored scales or chitinous plates, then carefully dissecting its favored prey for organs that do not produce toxins, greedily selecting choice bits with the speed of a chef.
any humans attempting to colonize that world... would be easy pickings.
Psst! that means, the artwork is very realist and you have mastered key elements of biology in your art.
