Description When I did this animal ([link] ), a friend of mine asked me about what were those legs for and I didn't know how to answer, so I started to think about it.
Finally, I imagined the legs as 'floating boats', so this creature could float above the swamps while eats some fresh plants.
This is a quick sketch of the idea.
Coloured version here: [link]

Very creative concept, I msut admit that I find the floating 'boat' feet a very awesome idea that I haven't seen done liek this before, really innovative.

Thanks! The point is that I draw the feet before thinking about what were them for, so maybe thats the key for having original ideas

That's a rather neat concept... I wonder how exactly it fare on land? Or how fast it is. It's so neat that it makes me curious lol.

Also I love your shading. D: This is super cool.
