Description
The story of this wonderful thing:An Immobile frog that lures flies with the smell of its flower-like antennae. This frog creature has lost its need for legs through evolution and remains glued down on a single spot throughout its entire adulthood. Before this frog is permanently glued, in its juvenile stage it must fine a moist place because it can only get water from rain and from absorbing liquid from the ground. Even after lost of the entire rear of its body, his frog's anus is hasn't disappeared, so the creature sits on its own feces for as long as it can live.
The Angler Frog is very vulnerable to predation, however it has a couple defense Mechanism. The Frog can spit out a its own feces through its mouth; scientists are not sure if it keeps its body waste in its stomach or it reabsorbs it from the ground. The Angler Frog's only other means of defense its is ineffective camouflage and even then sometimes it works against itself; sometimes large herbivores might trample over it by mistake.
How this species mate is a mystery. It is believed that the male of the species is mobile and like the Angler fish, much smaller than the female; and he mounts one of the eggs on her body to breed.

The eyes are rendered nicely. I was hoping the whole frog would be as well. I think there s a bit of too much blur on the flowers makes the whole thing a bit dizzy. I think the flower would have been pretty focused like the eyes are. He look like a jelly frog like almost see through him or something. Cool work.

Thanks for the feedback, is it just the flowers on the back giving you problem or the one on his head too? As for the frog's rendering, is it the vein's?

Hello again!
I can tell that it is less dizzy and that you took out some of the blur. It was the combination of both. The background was crazy busy, but now its much better I didn't squint. Then flower on top of his head is what I was talking about that it should be as clear as his eyes. Nice veins lol. For the frog I was thinking it's green skin, the eyes are amazing. And when I saw it I thought the skin would have the same rendering quality. The reason why I said he look like a jelly frog is how you did the connection of the flower on top of the head. That gloss makes it look like he has a jelly coat on top is see through which is really cool. I would love to try this. Then his cheeks sort of have that same idea, but hes not as translucent more matte.
I did like the the gold speckles on his front before, the placement was good. It give that depth on the frog. I think you took it down a bit. I also see the gold shine on his texture on the side ( circular texture) I think if you bring it back on his belly just a bit be nice. Because the lips are done really well. And since the belly sticks out it would have shine on it as well just like some of the circular texture.
Of course you don't have to change any of this. They are minor points. Looking forward to see more! XD

Thanks for ur critique again.
Yeah, he was meant to be a sort of blob like.
I did have the flower glossier before but I felt it was pulling the attention from the eyes too much so I tone it down, maybe I can tone it back up a bit just enough to differentiate itself more from the other flowers.
