Does anyone have a suitable illustration or paper mini to represent what the Crushroom looks like?

Most monsters are easy enough for me to picture from the description even without an illustration. However in the case of the Crushroom, I'm having difficulty understanding the morphology of the critter from that description alone. Additionally I used cardboard heroes and other paper minis in F2F games, and a suitable illustration of the Crushroom would be useful for that as well.

The morphology is a question in my mind, because I'm trying to picture how a human-sized "mushroom" with it's mouth on top, would be able to bite (and grapple!) a humanoid torso (or anywhere else). The traits don't state that it has no "head", so maybe the gaping maw is supposed to be directable. I'm not sure. What am I missing?
