Hansel and Gretel

I referenced marine life for most of my designs, for the spacecraft, I did not want it to be a machine entirely. I wanted it to be a sentient being as well hence I incorporated organic elements to it.

I wanted to go with the idea of an angler fish as gingerbread house that lures the children in with his light. His lure would be made of the heads of his previous victims. The angler fish would have many different heads and he chooses the appropriate lure to seduce the kids. At first I wanted a maternal figure to appear but in the end I think a child lure would be more suited for this role.

So this is the lure. She appears to by shy at first but in reality she’s already dead and she’s being animated the by fish. The way she moves is also head first as the rod pulls on her and when her role is done her head can be detached from her body and stored somewhere.
