This print showcases an overhead view of a meticulously crafted model representing the upper torso of a Giant Tiger Centipede. The intricate details are awe-inspiring, with pairs of legs gracefully attached to each segment, leading up to venomous claws positioned behind its delicate antennae. A fascinating cross-section reveals the inner workings of this arthropod's anatomy, exposing venom glands complete with ducts, nerves, and muscles. The studio shot perfectly captures the essence of this venomous creature that resides underneath our feet. Its carnivorous nature is evident through its menacing appearance and lethal capabilities.
