Hello, guys. This is the first time that i enter the challenges, but i have seen all the others and enjoyed very much. The level in this place is great.
Well, this is my entry. It is a Giant Scarab, a race of ancients scarabs used by the ancient egyptians to help build those big temples and pyramids. They can climb rocks and stones, donīt need much water, and in some situations they can fly little distances. Great animals that helped the construction of one of the greatest civilizations. Hope you like it!

I know his face is kinda cute, but he is a nice creature :)

C&C are very welcome, as always.

Hey, now that's looking real spiffy. I like what you have done with the exoskeleton. And putting feet on him, that's going to be something to see:p

He does look a bit cute, but I am sure that's going to change once your model takes form. Keep up the good work, it's looking great!!
