Nice result. CMYK has a point (not sure though if it was meant as eyes), but you can keep it like 2 eyes (as if he's looking at you), but in that case you have to put the antennas a bit different (now the head would look too twisted). For the rest I agree with Nasir . Good luck! Reply »

Hi all. Thanks for the suggestions and comments. Actually the eyes, I deliberately created like that. The antenna position I'll rework ASAP. Thanks again for the useful comments. Reply »

Nice creation of the insect! One thing with the colors, the background is kinda covering the insect, that it doesnt stand out but gets lost in the back ground. I think it will look more powerful if you gave the insect just one color that stands out. Maybe just silver + a little yellow. Good luck! Reply »
