Point and ice comes out

#BugFables #Leif
Drawing of Leif from Bug Fables, back to the camera and looking to the side with a neutral expression on their face. His arm is fully extended and his hand is pointing forward, and snowflakes are coming out of the tip of their finger

#Bugtober 2025 Day 8: Ominous

What not having a Kabbu to dramatically alert you to impending danger does to an exploration team
Drawing of Mothiva and Zasp at a low angle. Neither of them seem particularly interested in or aware of their surroundings. Mothiva, with her hand on her hip, says “Peh. There’s nothing here. Come on, let’s get out of here.” Zasp crosses his arms and responds with a simple “Mm.” Unbeknownst to them both, the Ahoneynation, a giant slime-like creature made of honey,is rapidly descending, and about to fall directly on top of them. Text to the right reads “Bugtober Day 8: Ominous”

#Bugtober 2025 Day 10: Favourite Character

A rare moment of camaraderie
A drawing of Mothiva and Kabbu from Bug Fables. They’re both sitting at a bar, with their backs faced to the camera. Mothiva appears to be sulking, resting her head on the counter, empty wine and shot glasses sitting next to her, while Kabbu holds his hand on her back, comforting her. Text on the top reads “Bugtober Day 10: Favourite Character”

#Bugtober 2025 Day 14: Cave-In

Mysteries off the beaten path
Drawing of Tod from Bug Fables in the Golden Path Tunnel, holding his ball and turned to look at a collapsed path next to a signpost. Vibes and roots hang from the ceiling, and a large leaf and beam of light can barely be seen over the large chunks of rubble obstructing the path. Text to the top right says “Bugtober Day 14: Cave-In”

#Bugtober 2025 Day 16: Adventure

The road is full of dangers! (But we walk it anyway)
Drawing of Vi and Kabbu from Bug Fables walking through Bugaria’s outskirts to Snakemouth Den. Vi has a relaxed walk and expression, holding her hands behind her head and casually talking about something. Kabbu is right beside her with a slightly more determined walk, shielding his eyes and looking off into the horizon to the side. They approach a small gap in the path bridged by a couple of rocks, breaking up the river below. Text to the bottom reads “Bugtober Day 16: Adventure”

Pumped and ready for violence!!!
Drawing of the minor character Fluffy from Bug Fables, with Aria and Kabbu appearing in the foreground. Fluffy appears to be thrilled, trembling with excitement as she watches Kabbu and Aria ritually duel up on a podium. Text in the middle reads “Bugtober Day 17: Hobbies”

#Bugtober 2025 Day 18: Snack

A bond forged from a shared love…
Drawing of Dan, the food loving beetle with sharp mandibles and multiple horns, and Leif from Bug Fables. Both of them are raising their arms into the air, holding their meals together in reverence. Dan is holding a Sweet Danger, and Leif is holding a Poison Cake. Text in the centre reads “Bugtober Day 18: Snack”

#Bugtober 2025 Day 20: Favourite Boss

To be honest this is partially just so I could draw Venus (ily Venus <3)
Drawing of Venus and her Guardian from Bug Fables. Venus is throwing a mock punch with her left arm with a sly look on her face, and her Guardian mimicks the motion, impacting the ground with great force

#Bugtober 2025 Day 22: Bad Ending

Some people really care about the side characters!
Drawing of Neolith and Kabbu from Bug Fables walking together. Kabbu looks annoyed, and Neo has a growing concern on his face as he clutches a stack of papers to his chest. Kabbu says “—and they made the Ivory Ranger a laughing stock, which completely undoes her character development in the previous arc!” “Aw heck, not her! Please tell me they left the Crimson Ranger alone…!” Neolith worriedly responds Kabbu continues, “Oh, do not get me STARTED on the Crimson Ranger!” Text to the right reads “Bugtober Day 22: Bad Ending”

#Bugtober 2025 Day 24: Close Call

Been a while, eh? I’m giving myself a soft deadline to finish the last prompts by the twelfth, but I’m not gonna be too bothered if I don’t hit that date. Anyway, enjoy Crisbee bearing the consequences of his hubris
Drawing of Crisbee from Bug Fables, perched precariously on top of a table as Abomihoneys swarm him. He’s crying a little and trying to keep his balance as the honey slimes mull about and gnaw on the table, all while smoke billows from the unseen oven. Text to the right reads “Bugtober Day 24: Close Call”

Sorry this is so late, motivation for art has been low lately

Regardless, happy 6th anniversary to Bug Fables, forever and always my favourite game <3
Art depicting Team Snakemouth from Bug Fables. From left to right, Vi is sitting with Chompy in her lap, petting her with a content look on her face. Kabbu is sleeping between his two friends, and looks to be at peace. Leif is resting on a small lump of ice with their legs crossed, seeming to be in meditation

#BugFables #Kabbu
Drawing of Kabbu, his Master, and his friend Bit from Bug Fables, all sitting at the end of a dock. Kabbu and Master are holding fishing rods while Bit leans against Master's back and dozes. Master's expression is serene and relaxed as he stares into the water, while Kabbu glances over at him. Text underneath the dock reads "Bugtober Day 27: Fishing"

Still weaving magic. 🪄
Photo of open sketchbook with assorted pencils, pens etc. to the right. A cartoon moth in a whimsical magic outfit waves a wand with arms out, eyes closed. Blue and golden metallic swirls come from the wand and wrap around the character. The moth's outfit is dress-like, with a large pleated skirt and longer front piece, round buttons over a layered top, puffy upper sleeves, gloves, and long boots with little crescent moons on the feet. They also have a witch-like hat with a crescent moon decoration on the brim. Most of the rest of the page is blank except for a tiny bug in a simple outfit carrying a glowing staff doodled in the space to the upper left. Art by Moth Monarch.
