Image: Retro pixel-art boss sprite for a first-person dun

Generated from: Retro pixel-art boss sprite for a first-person dungeon crawler in the style of Mutant Crawl Classics and early Legends of Grimrock, with the flamboyant 1980s dark-fantasy cartoon look of Heavy Metal magazine and Conan. Large crisp readable pixels, strong readable silhouette, high contrast, no anatomical detail. Subject: the Hive Queen as a honey-amber queen bee empress, a statuesque adult woman-humanoid with a dramatic wasp-thin waist and full hips, standing in a commanding pose with a segmented striped abdomen-like train of chitin trailing behind her legs. She has TWO PAIRS OF ARMS (four arms): the upper pair spread wide in a welcoming embrace, the lower pair holding a small glowing cocoon like a harvest offering. Golden-amber striped chitin plates armour the forearms, shoulders, hips and the spine, forming a minimal armoured costume, the rest warm tan skin. Feathery antennae in her hair, large translucent amber vestigial wings behind, faceted compound-eye shine, a sweet smile with small mandible fangs, and a tall spiked crest-crown. Palette: honey amber, black stripes, sickly green glow, violet wing tint. Composition: full body, strictly frontal view facing the camera, whole figure visible, centered, feet at the bottom edge of the frame, tall and imposing. Billboard sprite: no ground, no background, no scene, no text, no frame. NOT smooth digital painting, NOT 3D render, NOT anime.
