Nicely posed and taken. Very weird-looking critter too!

Its as if he(or she) is going to enter a boxing match.

Brilliant image. Any behind the scene photos? stacking method and Post processing specifics?

Thanks Beatsy!

Anvancy, thank you! No, I didn't take behind the scene photos, there is actually nothing special about my rig, it is pretty simple. In this case, JML 21/3.5 on Canon FD Auto Bellows + Sony a5100, Bellows mounted on top of a Parker linear stage. Lighting consists of 3 Ikea LED lamps + DIY plastic diffuser.

Stacked in Zerene Stacker, PMax + DMap, retouched in Zerene, then in PS, levels/curves adjustment, retouching the usual halos and artifacts and
that's all...
