Though if KC's doing the signs...wonder what the Aries will look like...OOOHHHH I CAN'T WAIT
Assuming that he?/she?/it? actually moved onto the whole Zodiac signs scenario, thing that I highly doubt though, if said person were to make an Aries styled girl it would probably look like this.

(Remember that we're talking about an artist keen on reusing/recycling existing profiles to make new ones... and Weresheep is more similar to a ram than a sheep).

Translation is up on the first post. To be honest, I was wondering when there was going to be a bathtime MG...

I just knew it, this one was based on a actual crab.
Zodiac, zodiac, zodiac... My patooty (By the way thanks for changing the thread's description).

Well... This one is surprisingly similar to MGQ's Crab Girl... thing that doesn't surprise me (since that one is actually quite popular).
This one is actually rather cute (although the crab eyes on the tauric body still creep me out... I mean were they even necessary) and yes I was expecting her to be a total neat freak.

A nice surprise overall, considering his?/her?/its? latest works.

Product of boredom here. I've been on a creative burst lately so I figured I'd let it flow.

To be honest, I tire of the old "extended" (cut down the middle) look and changed it up. I'm still not doing the profiles anymore though, but I am training someone to do them for us, I just wanted to come up with a more distinct TMM look first (and it's actually a lot easier to read it this way as well). :mrgreen:
MGE-Profile-3.0-Cancer.png
The image size is actually now smaller (~200 px less wide) and I was able to eliminate a lot of wasted disk space (~400 KB), thus shrinking the overall file size. Feel free to voice your opinions on it, it's not official and is more of a personal project. 8-) If people don't like it this way I'll train my new apprentice to do it the old "extended" way instead (or maybe even think of another design). I may move around the text (or change sizes) on top a bit still though..to cover more area. I'll look at it later again. ^^

I am personally less shocked from those "decorations", and more worried about the creature
being literally a girl crawling out her way of a giant crab´s cracked-open face like some sort
of anthropomorphic parasite...

So we went from Cos-player Girls Encyclopaedia to MGQ vs Alien...
Warning:Rant
Spoiler: show
In some works of fictions Humans have been metaphorically compared to Viruses or Cancer
for their ability of expanding themselves across the planet while steadily destroying their
surroundings in addition to being hard to totally be wiped out from the face of the Earth
and instead, managing to come out on top of any obstacle across time...

But this entry seems to gather all those figurative images and mix them into this
xenomorph to the sole purpose of taunting the reader into an act of introspection and analysis
which this work clearly does not deserve due to various reasons (mainly incompetence
at story writing and recently a form of non-creativity in the art design department)...

In my honest opinion the upper part of the profile looks much better now with
the full semi-transparent portrait of the monster girl. On the other hand, I
think the text would be less tiresome to read in the old "cut-down-in-the-middle"
format. Nice job as always by the way.

Regards.

And...However absolutely no one gave half of damn about that scenario during the time Sandworm was introduced (which looks way more like the case you're referring in your spoiler than either this girl or her superior MGQ counterpart).

My... life sure has some interesting twists sometimes...

Thanks for the review Sub. Any other opinions on it?

Personally, I like the old format for the pictures, since I was putting them into a pdf for kindle use.
The new format won't fit the one/two page book format I have set up so it would work.

I like Cancer, and the moment I saw her I knew she had to be somewhat like the mgq crab.

That's a really good point. Sounds better stick to the old one then.

Meek, devoted, poor at expressing emotions.
We share this disposition.
Even if I'm not sure if the lass and the crab are individual entities or if they are one in the same.
