Excellent, I love it!

OH wow. beautiful details in this drawing.. very impressed, im not sure i can even draw anymore. You have just inspired me to give it a go

Very nice, like something you would see in the book. Great detail, well done.

Thank you all. The praying mantis is probably my favorite insect. There is always a place where they can thrive behind our house. They are one of the only insects that can turn their heads as this one did to look at me!

High quality entry, I love the 'unfinished' look of the background.

Thanks Rob!

Great drawing! Good technique and nice way of making dark and light areas

Nice one, hint for the next time: use a tissue to smudge the darker areas. You'll get a much smoother and nicer result. But: good drawing
