Insects: Branch Mantis

Why be a stick when you can be a whole branch, leaves and everything. What the heck, lets eat bigger things too!

Insects: Mantis Emperor

 I saw a picture of a mantis and started sketching it, and a happy accident occurred  Instead of an alien insect like I was planning, I saw an emperor instead. So I took the idea and ran with it.

He is a shrewd, sly, and cunning emperor, but he is wise and kind to his subjects.
