Oh, nice concept, and very well executed. I wouldn't have thought a beetle-like body could pull off a tiger-like stalk, but you've made him look very convincing. I also like the effect of the carapace spikes as an illusion of "ears", and the inclusion of the antennae. The leaves look good up at the top. I don't think a lot of detail is needed on them, since they're a background element, but there's just enough to make them convincing. The only thing that looks off to me is the tree trunk and branch themselves, they look a bit too smooth, and flat in places. The texture looks more like paint than tree bark, which is at odds with the very photographic beastie.



All in all though, I really like this!
