Reviews for "beetle marm"

-10 for poor thumbnail

+19 for art.

Great overall, really like how I can see the light coming down from the openings.

The eye on the monkey on one side though looks like totally on a seperate spacing than the other though, or maybe's it's the nose getting shoved over so far to the left.

Either way, great composition.

sucho responds:

yea, i should have deepened the shadows between his far eye and the bridge of his nose, his eyes are pretty far apart.

so kewl

hehe

i love the beetle's face

sucho responds:

it took me about ten tries to get her looking sweet and elderly enough, without looking like that ladybird from disney's A Bug's Life. its a dangerous threshold

So, there he was in a rather unique stuation...

...It wasn't as he didn't appreciate the attention, but he needed some nurture apart from moldy leaves and morning dew. And after all, he got some task to do.
Yes, although she was the first living being that hadn't intended to harm, kill, eat or fool him since he began his journey, he would have to reject her hospitality in the most kindly and polite way possible.
Yet he found it was kind of a pity, though.

sucho responds:

don't worry, later on momma joins his rag tag crew when all her little offspring have all growed up. she's a tank that one

Beauteous.

In that "monkey laying in a pile of maggots being tended to by a giant beetle" kind of way.

I really like this, gorgeous work.

sucho responds:

its such an overused subject really, so i'm flattered that this shines out among the rest of the "monkey laying in a pile of maggots tended to by a giant beetle" pieces out there :3
