Ardilioma is a titanic-sized isopod that can carry up to two people on its back. The fins on its sides accentuate its stability and allow it to evolve in the marshes, mangroves and quicksand, they are however sharp and the rider must be careful not to hurt himself before climbing. It is very popular with elves but it is not always welcome in big cities where its repeated passage tends to remove the pavement.
It is a scavenger and feeds on dead leaves, fallen fruit, rotten wood, mushrooms but it happens to be coprophage and attack the garbage.
The larva of ardilioma is edible and can be cooked before its 4th stage, beyond it becomes toxic.
When attacked by a predator, it curls its legs, antennae and gills under its shell and leaves a toxic fluid.
The female stocks her eggs in an ootheque even if once full she can continue to lay, the extra eggs are then abandoned at the mercy of the birds.
I am currently looking for a new tablet drawing technique, a technique that is less heady than the vector line point by point. I don’t know how you’ll find the line.
