Description
My competition entry for the Metroid-Club's "New Boss"Here is a link to the competition gallery: [link]
I've named it Tsetse which is the word for a type of biting fly. "...They live by feeding on the blood of vertebrate animals" Wikipedia
When a Tsetse feels threatened it opens its wings and releases a swarm of smaller Tsetse like insects from its orange back. This diversion gives the the large Tsetse an attack opportunity.
Any comments are welcome.
Enjoy

This looks like something I'd see in Prime...it's easy to see why you won the contest. Nicely done, mate. Kudos on the win!!!

Thank you. It was definitely Prime influenced.

The Prime games rock, therefore this rocks.
Actually, you could have been influenced by any of the Metroid titles, and this would still be amazing...

Bugs are nasty. Even the rainbow ones. lol
Very creative. (If they existed I'd put a gun in my mouth so fast. )

Thank you. I drew some inspiration from creatures in the Metroid Prime series and flies.

Nothing worse than the Tsetse fly.
And if your not careful the real ones will lay eggs under your skin.

It looks as if it would be leading a pack of Ki Hunters.

Thanks. That's a great idea. Maybe the Tsetse are a sub-species of the Ki Hunters or visa-versa.

Galactic Federation sanctioned genetic dabbling can produce any number of fancinating results.

Thanks a lot. I think keeping the line drawing over top kept the sketchiness of it and gave it a more energetic quality. I always try to be as perfect as I can with my art but this time I decided to just let loose a little.
