The crustacean photographed

I live in a coastal city, so I've had the opportunity to observe many marine animals, and crabs have always endeared themselves to me: they're scary, but also grumpy, and the face doesn't help. Check the horror science fiction filmography and you will find sea creatures behind the faces of extraterrestrial monsters.
They are also little animals that know how to overcome their natural prevention and show their faces, tweezers included, if the situation gets ugly. My broom has had a few run-ins with them. They tend to get into houses when the tide comes in and they have to be put in a box and transported back to the beach.
I am very fond of them, I'm not lying, and I think they are beautiful. I have also tasted some very tasty ones.

This is the photo of the nice crustacean that @shaka gave us to make our collages. May I apologize for turning it into a creature of war.

I imagined the crustacean in shaka's photo as the mount of some fantastic being, but I didn't know what that being would be, until I decided to go to Make Human and make these demonic women.
The situation is this:
War is happening. In the battle, some of these creatures have died. Others have managed to survive and win. In the background we can see these twins opening the portal for the invasion. The land they are fighting for is Paradise.
From the famous and beautiful painting of Garden of Eden, by Lucas Cranach the Elder(1472–1553) came all the color I put.

The colors of Hell are the colors of Paradise

I accentuated the orange tones of the demon women to harmonize with the fruit of the sacred tree. I also drew a tongue, a proboscis, for the fiery warrior who occupies the central place. I always knew she should have a butterfly tongue.

I added this tongue to the warrior. I drew it with colors and then applied filters in Gimp.

I hope the scene has the dynamism I wanted to give it.
Finally, I added a grain effect to the collage to unify some textures. Sometimes I want my work to show the union of the pieces in a rough way; other times my intuition tells me that I should soften these things, and so I do.
I hope this work is enjoyed by friends.

The witches were made with Make Human, an open source program I learned about from the amazing @Quantum.

Eres muy amable.

Exactly how I am used to from you, also this work again is a very interesting and spectacular composition.
Some might say, "How dare she?". Then I would reply "Well dared!". The work of the master is well integrated in your collage. Even more, it speaks a similar dialect.

Very well done!

I hope I will find your work in the final poll. Good luck! :-)

hahaha... The truth is that I don't think much about what is aporopiated when I'm making collages or drawing. At least I had the decency to put little leaves in some of the prudish parts hehehehe....
I don't know what old Cranach would think when he saw his work desecrated like this. I think I would have to hide.

Anyway, I had fun and learned a few things. There are others that are still unfinished business.
I love to see you in these weekly meetings, dear @quantumg.

Dear @adncabrera ,
Wow! That is some tongue. You have used resources intuitively to create a dramatic (as you say, dynamic) scene. I am so happy the lobsters are celebrated. Yes, we may eat creatures, but I never find joy in the killing of them. It does not surprise me that you respect them. Thank you for every one you return to the sea.

A beautiful collage, as always. Good luck in the dpoll.

Querida, @agmoore, no había podido pasar a responderte.
Sí, tuve que devolver muchos cangrejos al mar. Luego me mudé un poco más lejos de la playa y me ha tocado devolver sapos al jardín. Estoy por mudarme de este lugar (con árboles enormes, que llegué a amar) y no sé qué bichos serán mis amigos en el futuro. Espero, con todo mi corazón, que los haya, pero que no sean ratas ni cucarachas...jejeje...
Un abrazo enorme.

My dear @adncabrera, I have lived (in the past) with the cockroaches. Not fun!! They are guests who refuse to leave when asked :)) I hope they do not visit you in your new home.

Be well, peaceful and stay creative.

With a warm hug,
Your friend from Long Island,
AG
