Day 8, it's the cute cat (earwig)! I always wanted to do a bug who's insecure about their buggy appearance and tries to be one of those mammal things people love so much. As to why I picked a earwig, I don't know, was a spur of the moment thing. You don't see them often though.

Day 7, it's the damselfly who loves to fly! Our first bug that's a dude in a sea of women. I personally have more fun drawing girls but I still wanted some bugs to be male. Damselfly themselves are very fun creatures. Their big eyes are lovely. A bit late due to pain, sorry!

Sixth Day, it ain't bee, it ain't bee! My first ever bug character, made as a joke from a pun. She holds a special place in my heart, even if I've been drawing her popular sister more lately (she's still looking for a human bf). Still I do love her. NEVER LEAVE ME, ATHENA!

Fifth Day, it's the mantis who's looks like she's seen better days. This character was originally a groundskeeper for a cemetery but making her a florist gave some nice contrast with her drab design. As to why she's French, I don't know, but I feel like it fits.

Fourth Day and it's the moth everybody loves. The pellucid hawk moth is my favorite insect ever but I can't say I have ever been happy with Malina's design which is why I tweak her a lot. Glad you all love her though. She loves all of you.

Third Day, it's a fire (fighter) ant! Well actually she's a honeypot ant who drinks water to save lives! I'm normally too embarrassed to draw bug abdomen at this size but I'll push through it this time. It will probably only get weirder from here, folks.

Day 2 is a grasshopper grasscopper. The main inspiration for her was various milkweed grasshoppers, which are known for their bright exotic colors. Grasshoppers are surprisingly less popular than I thought as I don't see many anthros of them.

First day of my Insectober is a snakefly with the snake eyes! Snakeflies are kinda an unpopular species, I've actually never seen someone do an anthro of them before. A shame, I think they're pretty cool looking.
