Description
My Baby Piranha Plant.In creating the mother ( [link] ) , I based my design on this question: Had it been based on a real living plant, what would it look like?
For the baby, I followed the exact same steps except I applied softer textures, brighter colors and a teething mouth.
I used clay, a strengthened wire skeleton and a special mix of acrylics to get the right appearance of flesh (particularly the inside of the mouth).

Thank you! They looked cute together. Almost as if the baby had no idea how terrifying mamma was, and by default, baby too. I wanted to leave it out and record people's reactions but... nah.

I must agree with everyone and say it is cute, looking really like a baby with the soft look and feel. I like, I'd personally pet this thing anytime I saw it.

Of all the things I have seen, that by far is.......... TOO CUTE!!!!!! Its literaly too cute. It really is adorable. Great job. If you make a baby Metroid I can't wait to see it. I hope it will be as cute as this little guy.

Thank you! Actually, the baby Metroid won't be very cute. The current design has it in a lab jar as a small specimen in formaldehyde.
