I remember watching you draw this.
I knew it would turn out as great as it did. I love the amount of detail you can add when simple using charcoal, and you sure as hell did skip any steps on the detail.
Very well done Mori.
Reviews for "Mantis"
Nice work
So first off I would like to say that I found this pretty interesting it was differant and has a unique feel to it, so I was glad to have found this, I like your style here its a good piece, and kinda jumped out at me. but thats what made this all the more interesting. A nice piece of drawing here, the Praying mantis is a scary outside insect of sorts and was scared of them as a kid, so good drawing you did it to its exact detail. Now i was really liking the work you put out here today it was something that put some nice effects and elements together, so it was a good piece of art, And i do look forward to more of your work here soon enough. there are some things that could have a more Polish to it.
~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
And there it is anawsome creation that shows the efforts, and I wouldnt mind seeing a tad more improvment points as its never a dull time for improvments even just the little ones, I would also Find it very Helpful with more options. so here are a few improvment options and choices to chose from. Wouldnt mind seeing more of a shine on the eye globes but it being in pencil may hold back on that.

This is a great pencil drawing of a mantis. Nice work on the attention to detail. The shadding makes the background look better. The only way this could be better is by using color.
