Infected Aurelia

Undersea Creature Compendium Vol. 1:

The Aurelia is prone to being infected by various parasites due to its standard diet. Being at the bottom of the food chain, parasites have evolved to use the Aurelia as a common entry point into larger creatures higher up the food chain.

I see shrimpy aspects…

I like all the little lime tentacles on it, the tubes on the main body are impressively woven together. The Carapar shells in general give it a nice sickly look, and the white “legs” on the bottom are a nice addition. Good job on this!

This is really cool! It reminds me of a nautilus, and also a trilobite with the little legs or gills on its underside.

How to use up your spare Carapar masks

The aesthetic with this thing is wild, and the added backstory is just enough to flesh it out without being obtrusive. Reminds me I really gotta use my copious macaroni collection in mocs more often.

Nice work!

Ooho this is pretty cool. I really like the building style and the parts use is great with the Carapar pieces and the green macaroni pieces. Very nicely done, the lore is great as well

@Minethuselah Shrimpy indeed… Thank you!! I thought the colors all worked together to sell a disgusting diseased look.

@Lunarple Thank you!

@DuneToa I can see it! The head was partially inspired by a trilobite while the body was more shrimp-like

@Enbeanie Thanks!

@Ghid I had a bunch to use lol. Thank you! Glad you liked it. I tried to keep the flavor text relatively short and sweet.

@Rukah Thank you!! I appreciate the kind words.
