This is sketch of a robot from the aforementioned sci-fi comic with the bug motif. At some point an ancient robotic race will be unleashed that a hybrid of birds and locusts (symbolically speaking at least) called Raptors. The birds as in they are the seemingly unstoppable predators of insects, and locusts because they are the bugs notorious for wiping entire kingdoms clean of all food. Since they were robots I wanted them to look a little more sinister and actually resemble the raptor/locust hybrid but not blatantly. I think this Raptor turned out well between the pointed head and the 6 claw-appendages.
