Daphnia Pulex




Two posts in one day, wow!
This is a study I did recently of "Daphnia Pulex", a type of Water Flea. I'm always inspired by artists who can create such life like creatures using anatomies that aren't human. So I would like to try keeping up doing studies like this. I found a few microscopy pictures of these guy's that inspired me to do a study of them to absorb those, somewhat aggressive shapey shapes!

Me old Uni model...paint over




I did this guy when I was trudgin through University oh 5 years ago now. Decided to do a little paint over and post it up here.
