SuloColeoptera

I should try harder. Gladly, I got one full year to put myself into it. I've just been kicking myself over how bad of an artist I am, without having any time to change things, learn something new, practise.. I didn't even touch my tablet for 4 or 5 months. I'm so fucking worn out. I wish whaambulance would exist, I really need a ride in one right now. So.. uh.. anyone up for a trade or something?

I hope even half of them will stay alive during the delivery.. though I've had much more delicate things fly over to me. Beetle larvae are surprisingly sturdy. FUCK YEAH, COLEOPTERAS!

I really love keeping beetles (I've had the regular meal worms, giant meal worms, chalcosoma atlases and now I have rose beetles) but really THE insect which nearly makes me cry when I see how beautiful they are, are the mantises. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ik9UYQPPHCQ Seriously, that's just absolutely amazing. She has this really sharp look in her eyes and the way she handles herself shows just so much character. I really love beetle's eyes, if you look at a beetle when it sticks it's head out, you can see they have these huge, black and round puppydog eyes. They're like marbles :'D They just don't look particularly intelligent like t
