The Mongolian death worm is one of the most popular posts on here, although in my view it's not my best work. It is a cool subject, so I decided to make a death worm in its larval stage. Here it is in the process of hatching out of its little egg:
As with the big guy, the death worm larva is all about the paint. It's a very simple sculpt, just an undulating tube coming out of an egg, with a little bit of detail to suggest that the egg is membraneous like a snake's egg. What makes it interesting is the paint job, which uses several layers of polyurethane to make the egg look translucent.
