#Insectember 23: Bolitotherus cornutus, the forked fungus beetle! Wanted to focus more on showing a bit of how the abdomen/wings/elytra combo works for my beetle-folks, anatomy wise. #insectember2025

#Insectember day 20, and 21-22 as a combo since they're both wasps! The first one is Sphinx ligustri, a type of moth, and the other two are Conura sp. and Brachymeria sp., two wasps. I lost some steam working on the second one :'3 But now I'm caught up finally! #insectember2025

DO NOT participate in #blueskyblackout2025

I'm nsfw artist and other nsfw artists are asking you to SHOUT! Bsky wants to censor us so the worst thing we can do is censor ourselves!

Publicly shame them, use the feedback button, and post about it using the tag #bskycensorship

Silence is compliance!

Had to take a break for my wrist, and still trying to take it relatively easy, so these are more sketchy. Also I'll be circling back to days 10-11 later in the month, because I had a lot of ideas for them and wanted to do them justice.

Humanized Camarotus germar, a type of weevil, sitting in the shade of some bushes and reading a book. They have a pink and yellow afro, and are wearing a similarly colored shirt, and torn jeans.

#Insectember day 9: Reduvius personatus, the masked hunter! A type of assassin bug, where the nymph will cover itself in dirt and debris as camouflage. One of their main prey items is termites, so I was imagining them staking out a termite mound~ #insectember2025 #bugoc #insectoc #anthrobug

#Insectember day 7: Trithemis aurora! A very gorgeous type of dragonfly! I always imagine dragonflies as being more sporty, so I tried to give her that sort of look. And of course, these dragonflies being pink and orange, I had to lean into a specific color scheme 💗🧡🤍 #insectember2025

A humanized Trithemis aurora dragonfly. She is hovering against a sunset sky, pointing to the right. She has hot pink skin, and cropped, messy orange hair. She is wearing a tank top and running shorts.
