Hello darkness, I'm ready to succumb // And do the next right thing
Ah, forgot to share here!
I’ve been working on a lot of things this past month that I haven’t gotten quite ready to share (some of them secret (late) birthday presents). This was my test for a new set of shading/painting options for commissions.
Rewatched for my birthday, but I don't think I've been able to post any brave story sketches since.
10/24 - Giant Water Bug.
I cheated, I drew two (: A water scavenger beetle up top, I have one of these guys (dead though) from a bike ride this past summer! And a Giant Water Bug by the bottom. The males carry the eggs on their backs!

With some lavender!

10/17 - Five-Spotted Hawk Moth
Good old Manduca quinquemaculata, the Tomato horn worm caterpillar that turns into a wonderful moth capable of hovering like a hummingbird! Don't let them ruin your tomato plants though.

10/15 - Rose Chafer
The one with the scientific name Macrodactylus subspinosus. I usually see them on peonies, despite their name. Might go back into the background on this one once it’s fully dry.
