This is just amazing! 
Also, I have to ask this...out of curiosity, are you using this guy for anything? If you're not, I'd actually love to give him a loving home and include him in my future stories. ^^

It could probably fly if it really wanted to, but it'd probably avoid it. Kind of like a chicken or turkey.
You can use it if you want to, as long as you don't go after me if I draw similar things in the future.

-Sooo cool!!
I have always loved how people can put two or more creatures together - and without making the "hybrid" looking all weird & goofy in the process!!

You created this in OpenCanvas. 0.0 Awesome work.
I caught mantids last summer and they're really funny I like when they show their wings and those pawsy.

I caught a mantis last summer too. He/she was sort of the original inspiration for this drawing.

I like its face. It's cute and evil all at once.
And in conclusion: Mantis-dragons should totally exist.

They would walk around randomly decapitating people and it would be awesome.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it would be.
And then maybe we could train one of them to walk around and decapitate all the idiots who totally deserve that fate. Or maybe they'd just be awesome enough to do that naturally.

Probably naturally, unless they are so smart they can separate between kind ones and idiot ones

That is a super neat creature! Love the dark background.

Nice combination! You're right, both mantids and dragons are awesome! Does it breath fire?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Probably not. I think it'd be more likely to decapitate things.

He he he! Yeah, just one swing with those claws on the front legs and it's "bye-bye"!

Interesting. I like how you imitated the mantis eye with this one. It looks accurate (with that single black dot), but it also has life and feeling in it. A good hybrid, I like it a lot!

Very nice combination.
