今回の魔物娘は「ソルジャービートル」 カブトムシ＋クワガタムシ的な種族で、
昆虫魔物界の重騎兵です。既に登場していたビートル属のケプリとはかなり異なる外見になりました。This time's monster girl is “soldier beetle”, a race that's sort of like rhinoceros beetle + stag beetle, and they're the heavy cavalry of the world of insect monsters. They ended up looking pretty different from khepri, the beetle family monster that had already appeared.
無口無表情で、その独特な昆虫アイからは感情が読み取りにくい種族なのですが……
They're taciturn and expressionless, and it is difficult to read emotion from the peculiar insect eyes of this race, but...
毎度同じく詳しくは エロ魔物娘図鑑本文 をご覧くださいませ！
As always, for details, please check the erotic monster girl profile!
ちなみに手に持った武器・盾は身体の一部なのですが、
エロい事する時はちゃんとしまう事ができたりもするのでご安心を！
By the way, the weapons and shield held in their hands are part of their body, but they can put them away properly when doing erotic things, so relax!
Welp... If she wasn't mentioned as a beetle i would have certainly never guessed, except for the upper ornament she weids as a weapon i guess.
There are a couple of things wrong with this design, and they are MAYUSCULE things: It's way overkill. The whole thing would have looked perfect if it was only the girl, the strange lower body, which i will get at, makes it rather difficult to discern each part of the whole thing. And the arthropod-esque lower body... It's just spider-esque. It doesn't relate, nor does look anything like a beetle. Most anthropomorphic six-legged insects are like that FOR A REASON. You need to either, have the lower body on three properly arranged pairs of legs, or not have it. Heck, what are those stubs? Where are my Glaives, the same used on Devil Bug and Khepri?
I just hope they do not serve a queen, or i will be far too dissapointed.
I do love the eyes though. And it would appear she can detach from her horrendous crab-like set of legs.
Design wise... She sure is badass looking, but also quite inaccurate...
...as her design is way closer to a stag beetle than to an actual solider beetle...
Soldier Beetle
Stag Beetle
...unless the "soldier" part in her name actually alludes to the word soldier (and more than possible role/trait in the setting) rather than the actual species... which is also possible though.
Nevertheless is a nice start to begin with, I'll save my two cents until her profile is fully translated but it looks promising so far.
.P.S.: Also... Starship Troopers vibes coming from her.
I can't be the only one to see similarities... right? right?
And Kaijin you are the "Perentie" of this place, IMO.

I think this is actualy the case, especially since her left arm seems to be holding a shield instead of a sword. I also spot a finger in between the pincers on her right arm, and the eyes are very nice indeed.

Look a liiiittle closer and you will realize a couple of things more. Yes she is actually holding it as a weapon, and it is very similar in design to a push dagger or Katar, but also. Like mantis have two scythes attached to her wrists, this one seems to have two shields (though one far more prominent than the other.)
That makes four of us; the Okayado vibes are strong in this one (Specially those front legs, and her hair). Wonder if he's been taking inspiration from Monster Musume, hehe.

Looking at the comparison, I do wonder if KC simply overlooked the anatomical correctness that should've been properly applied.

You're right, she looks like she could quickly bisect her enemies with ease if need be... just a matter of getting the right colour scheme for an uncanny resemblance...

That would most likely be the case. He even drew fanart.

Wow her lover body design reminds me of a stag bettle or scarab but I'm getting the Starship Trooper bug vibe espeically those pincers.
And from closer glance it looks like the Pincers are removable gaultlets type weapons due to see a palm on her left hand if you look closely but I'll reserve judgement until after I see the bio on her.
The right to live free without fear of death should be granted and enjoyed by all beings Mamono, human, or Otherwise.

Mine was for the show Kamen Rider Kabuto. The main Rider of that series has a beetle as his motif. I have an old thread for Kamen Rider in the media section of the site.
