BIG crab

[Mahnmut]

I am quite content with the outcome of that one,
I dont think I solved all secrets of scale, but some comparison did work fine.
Thanks Henry Blewer for that advice.

Thanks to Alessandro for his great little scaly crocodiles!

That looks really cool!

It's almost like an island. If you reduce the front objects dramaticallyand put in a tourist boat, you'd have a great sightseeing venture.

There could be a wet area (darker plus reflective shader) where the crab had been in the water.

Love it!

Maybe you can put the crab in a pool of boiling hot water and 20 LBS of OldBay seasoning....

Im a little sad that no one has made a joke about having crabs yet. But the image is very cool and that kinda makes up for it a bit.

Thanks for the kind comments!
You may try to make it a shrimp coctail, but don´t complain afterwards.

Dune, I think that one croc heard your warning! The others didn´t.

There is a lot reflectivity in the image, the lighting just doesn´t show it well. But Ilike the lighting.

Some more Interaction with its surroundings, some postwork:
