Image: Retro pixel-art enemy sprite for a first-person du

Generated from: Retro pixel-art enemy sprite for a first-person dungeon crawler in the style of Mutant Crawl Classics and early Legends of Grimrock, with the brutal 1980s dark-fantasy cartoon feel of Heavy Metal magazine. Large crisp readable pixels, limited grim palette (black-green chitin, acid green glow, bone white, a few amber accents), strong silhouette, high contrast. Subject: a HIVE GUARD warrior of an insect swarm, a tall lean two-legged wasp-soldier, human height or slightly taller. Glossy black-green chitin armour plates all over, an elongated helmet-like head with two curved mandibles and a small spiked bone-white crest, glowing acid-green compound eyes, a narrow wasp waist, both arms end in long curved bone-white blade forearms held ready in front of the body, digitigrade insect-like legs, short folded vestigial wings on the back, a short stinger tail. Aggressive combat stance. Composition: full body, strictly frontal view facing the camera, whole figure visible, centered, feet at the bottom edge of the frame. Billboard sprite: no ground, no background, no scene, no text, no frame. NOT smooth digital painting, NOT 3D render, NOT anime.
