The 4th in my little interpretation of the celestial menagerie is Cancer, the crab. I've chosen (appropriately, in my personal opinion) the idea of a grappler. What with his natural armor-plating and that massive claw consisting of his right arm, I would think it a tremendously stupid idea to get in any sort of close-quarters combat.
You're probably thinking, "Well, where's his weapon?" Good question. The weapon I've associated with Cancer would be (again, rather appropriate) the shield. I know what you're thinking, "A shield as a weapon?" Yes, it is strapped to the arm and makes for a fine bludgeoning, even if it's meant for defense. Well, thinking on the idea of a crab (my first crab design, by the way), I figured his whole self would be something of a shield, wouldn't it?
So, here we are, Cancer the Crab.

I must say the details in this is awesome, I mean... Hell, apparently my computer can only view one small portion of this piece since all I see is a lone Crab warrior getting ready to start the crusade against the Herpes gnomes inside Paris Hilton's vagina!
STD jokes aside, this is pretty cool with an interesting design, man, for some reason I just love what you did for his feet, this series of yours is quite intriguing :)

I appreciate your humor, dude, it makes me smile. =) I'm also glad you like the design, it was a challenge to find an anthro-crab that looked good. I settled on this one, though, thinking that the sections of his legs might represent some of his multi-legs holding himself up, thus all the pointiness.
Glad to hear it :), most people feel my humour is moronic so if I can at least get a crack of a smile from someone I'm happy :D
Yeah, anthropomorphic insects, arachnids and crustaceans are a pain, I think you did quite a good job, though if you wanted to have something of the other legs/swimmers you could always try exoskeleton coated tendrils on the back, though I personally think what you got here is plenty enough and keeps things quite Crab-like while maintaining an overall badass design :)
