Fast fast messy sketch of some mantids! Coloured! Featuring a praying mantis I found (photograph) and this silly guy (Rhombodera sp.)(the illustration) on iNat!

Here are the sketches I made of Mol before deciding on the final sketch to continue forward! :) It was really fun translating this character into my own style of drawing bugs.

embarking on a new deeply misguided project in which i try to make a little pixel icon of the bugs i see this year

I am starting to understand how people get into the science of biology, because if you have a lil bug or something you like, and you start looking for more information about it, sometimes you end up with a grand total of maybe five sources before everything gets repeated. Because as it turns out there's a shit ton of invertebrates and even the relatively common ones aren't always researched in much detail. So you eventually end up with a room full of bug habitats trying to get real data on mating behavior and then you're like oh shit I'm the preeminent expert, now who do I ask.

When I find out someone loves animals in the wolves/cats/bears way I’m like oh nice same but when I find out someone loves animals in the orange-footed pimpleback mussel way I’m like holy shit holy shit same let’s stop what we’re doing right now so you can tell me about all the invertebrates you’ve ever loved with that sweet pure heart and curious mind you have

I am planning on posting more so here's a masterpost so I can keep them all in one place

Wake up, babe, new religion just dropped

Can we please stop putting down autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergent people whose traits are considered 'cringe', 'dorky', 'weird' or something else considered to be socially unacceptable?

We get enough shit from neurotypical people—we don't need to throw each other under the bus too.

"But they're making us look bad!"

I. Don't. Care. It's wrong to put each other on hierarchies. Simple.

Little native bee anthro sketch! I'm trying to find a medium between accuracy and stylization. I want to get to the point where people can identify my characters down to species just from the drawing. If you can successfully tell what this is, extra brownie points to you! (I'll reveal the species in a couple of days anyway.) Hint: assume this bee lives natively in the northeastern US.
