Up close he looks like a hand stitched leather bag! Great detail and colour. A closer crop to increase his size and remove the vast spaces of sand might be worth considering.

Cool close-up of this critter. A suggestion. I would have cropped this image a bit, sharpened it a tad and then wowed us all with this fancy bug.
I like the fact that you were able to show us this neat new friend of yours!
Thank you for sharing this with us ;=)
