:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "If you're talking about a real one, I can't help you. =)You'll have to meet one by chance. But about copying and saving my work - go ahead, as long as it isn't distributed further."

I drew one of these once, but I must confess it was nothing to this one!
The detail is breathtaking and the design is brilliant, I love the metalic look of it's body.

:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Thank you. ^_^ I worked a bit on the details on this one, so I'm really glad you liked it. I used pictures of dragonflies as reference, but it still was a bit tricky to get the metallic look. Can't I see your version?"
11 Sep 2005:-) Mischa Goodman
Sure here the URL of the full version already uploaded.

Like I said, it's not as well detailed as yours but I still like the differen't versions lol.

:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "That's so cute! ^_^ I love it. No legs though? Interesting."
14 Sep 2005:-) Mischa Goodman
I try to avoid legs were I can lol, lets say he wraps his tail around a branch to land, like a seahorse would. 12

:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Oh yeah? Neat! ^_^ I like the idea. I have an invented insect that works in the same way. No legs, but hangs itself from it's tail to rest. It would work."
15 Sep 2005:-) Mischa Goodman
Cool! do you have a picture of it here? 2

:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "No, but here: http://medlem.spray.se/Akaihane/Pictures/Insects.JPG
It's the "terva" at the right of the picture. But looking at it now, I see it actually hangs itself from it's jaws and not the tail... Remembered wrong."

Wow! that's so interesting, I would love to do a graph sketch of this insect, if you'll permit me, I'll give you full credit for the design of course.
I love the way it looks! 1

:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Sure, go ahead! =^_^= I'd be honored! Just please inform me when you get it up, I really want to see it!"
18 Sep 2005:-) Mischa Goodman
Will Do, and thanks. 2

:-) Emma JC Nilsson replies: "Yay. ^_^ Thank you!"
