Description
Concept: TiptoeThe creature lives in the deadland where food,etc are almost non-existent, the creature's body structure has evoled to the most simple and basic form, it's very light and fragile, only keeping what is needed for survival.
The food source of the creature is the most unique of all, it feeds on sound. Via the ultra thin webbing between the circular shape holes, it absorb sound waves and the energy is process in its special organs, filtering out the good sound waves. The sound nutrients is then store at the pouch-like organ at the back of the head,etc and the different wave nutrient results in the bright multi-colored skin. Due to its fragile body and bright colors, it becomes easy prey for predators, there fore while it feeds on sound, it is often in hiding and very very quiet, giving it the name Tiptoe.
At the center of the creature is its most vital organ, it is protected by the structure of the torso and legs. This is also where the creature's offspring inhabits until it is ready to be born.

This is so original! It looks like it belongs in some sort of Metroid Prime game or something! SO cool! Brilliantly done and what a crazy concept!

I absolutely love it when people create a creature and give it a story! I've always thought about feeding off of sound... do you know that if you scream for 4 years straight, you'd produce enough energy to heat a cup of coffee?
Awesome creature, congratulations on the DD!

TipToe has to be one of the most unique creatures I've seen so far. The design of its body make it look like living jewelry.

That is crazy bizarre. Would any vibration against the webbing feed it, like wind or just the movement of it walking? Or does it specifically have to be sound waves?

Interesting bio, looks like it could also be parasitic if it decided to burrow in your eardrum. Amazing art as well.

There's something quite alien about this creature, yet shockingly familiar. Like an octopus and a spider, the delicate balance of foreign and known makes it fascinating and yet, a little frightening.
I think it's an exquisite piece. To me, the use of color is the most beautiful of all. Fabulous job!!

don't mean to burst your bubble but nutrients don't come in the form of a wave... it's actually pretty impossible for sound waves to provide any sustenance.
on the other hand you could have gone with a more deep ocean type of animal where the webbing filters out any organic debris that might be hanging in the atmosphere... or maybe it could filter minerals out of the dust...

When I read the title I was thinking of a slogan for an amp or electric instrument or something similar...but your concept really just blew my mind, haven't read or seen (or heard) anything like it.
