This pretty much took ages to do. It's meant to be a cross between a firefly, a grasshopper, and a flower, if such a thing were impossible. Maybe on another planet....

This really must've taken you postively days to do! The shading's really good (tho I don't know a thing about it!) And it's got mmm... "atmosphere" (is that the right adjective?) The bug looks skeletal to me *shudder* I really like this one, legs and all. I like the whole idea too...

Wonderful! Looking at the pictures in your gallery I must say that I like your black'n'white pieces most of all. The shading is excelent.

I love this piece. =) Oh wait, I'm supposed to make a "serious, meaningful comment" huh? Ack...okay. I like the way the flowery part illuminates the whole image. The way that it's positioned high up above the darker side of the fiendish looking bug gives it a grand effect. Okay, but just to reiterate: I love this piece. =)

oOo, it really seems like it's a light or sumpin. I like the idea behind it, too.. lol, i've never heard of anything like that!

Just the idea of drawing a firefly in such a position is wonderful... And your drawing and skill certainly compliments it!
