Meet Flinch the northern paper wasp ٩(ˊᗜˋ )و

A character design commission for @zieren.bsky.social!
Thank you for supporting us (づ ᴗ _ᴗ)づ♡

(Comms open on Vgen: vgen.co/quilbug)
A sketched reference sheet of Flinch the northern paper wasp. The title says, "Flinch (He/It), Northern paper wasp, polistes fuscatus. The reference has a bust sketch of Flinch's head facing forward and to the side. He has a light yellow face with light brown head fuzz, orange antennae and large black eyes with white diamond pupils. Beside the busts are two fully body sketches showing the side of his body and what he looks with pants and a tank top on. Flinch's body is mainly black with yellow stripes along its plate joints, and yellow stomach, legs and arms that gradient to light orange and bright red. There are closeup sketches showing Flinch's forewing and how the chitin plates looks front to back on Flinch's thorax and abdomen, and a little colour palette. A character illustration of Flinch posing awkwardly. Flinch is an anthropomorphized northern paper wasp, its body is black and bright yellow with accents of red and orange. He has brown fuzz on his head, transparent orange wings and bright yellow diamond pupils in its black eyes. His top pair of hands are posed next to his head in peace signs, and he doesnt seem to know what to do with his bottom pair of hands. He slouches forward a little and sticks out his mouthparts in a fun gesture. There are sparkles drawn around his head and blue stars watermarking the background. An identical illustration to the last, except Flinch is wearing a black tank top with a faded printed image on the front, and black pants that are worn at the knees.

Hey hey! On february 13th I'll be starting Round 2 of Let me Doodle your Bug OC! This will work a bit differently then last time, so please take a moment to read down below! 💖

I hope to see ya'll then! ✨

( This is an announcement btw, the event has not started yet! So don't drop your OCs here 😅 )
Image shows an announcement! It reads: "Let me doodle your Bug OC Round 2 announcement! Starting on 13th of february, I'll be taking 10 peoples OCs to have a doodle made of them. These first 10 people will be a part of Group 1, which is a priority group for people who did not get to participate in the previous round. After that group is filled up and closed, I will open up Group 2 which welcomes any people, even those who participated previously. So please, don't try to join the priority group if you got a doodle from the previous Doodle Round, I literally keep a list of everybody who got to join so don't think you can just sneak in. Be patient, and wait for the second group to open. I'll be taking 5 people for Group 2, so in total there will be 15 doodles done! I know my limits and will not be doing as many as I did last time. I hope to see ya'll then! :D"

New character of mine. I truly love him quite a lot! He's a cherry centipede, he's very angry and listens to punk rock or skates to relax.
He bites.

A clean sketch of Rot the red centipede leaning against a graffiti-ed wall under a bridge, listening to music on his headphones. Rot has a sharp, segmented body that is bright red except for his black underbelly and bright orange antennae and back legs. He wears a spiked collar, black grunge pants and thick red and spiked shoes. His skateboard is propped up against the wall beside him.

Found this fella looking like it was on its last legs. My partner and I tried to revive it with some sugar water, and it did drink more than its fill... but alas, twas its final meal😔

🪲ID Guess: Flower-feeding March Fly
#bugsky #ozinverts #inverts #bugdeath
A side view photo of a flower-feeding march fly on a white papertowel, against a white background. The fly has a simple oval body covered in fluffy hairs, big colourful eyes, transparent wings and spindly black legs. Its triangular compound eyes shine green and yellow. The fluff on its underside is an off-white colour, while the fluff on its back and on the end of its abdomen is bright, saturated orange. A top view photo of the same fly, now sitting on dark striped fabric. In this photo you can see the top of its eyes touch, the very top of its thorax has no fuzz, and that there is a tear in its right wing. A sideview photo of the same fly as it drinks sugarwater out of a green spoon. It seems to be unsteady on its legs, but the end of its long mouthpart opens up to drink the liquid.

CUTEST FLOOFER EVER!!!!!
(Later found out that this species has skin-irritating hairs lmao, my finger was fine tho yay)

🪲ID Guess: Bag-shelter Moth
#bugsky #ozinverts #inverts #moths
A side view photo of an extremely fluffy bag shelter moth sat on the tip of a finger. The moth is covered in cream coloured hairs all over its stout little body, poofing up on the back of its head, thorax, abdomen, and the first two joints of its legs. The fluff on its abdomen is a caramel colour with black splotchy stripes running across the top. It has cream coloured wings that look way too small to carry its big fluffiness, two feathered antennae, and two big round eyes. A front view photo of that same moth. The sheer fluffiness of its body makes it look like a fuzzy circle with eyes, little stick legs and triangular wings faded in the background. Its little face is dwarfed by its big black eyes on either side of it. A three quarter front view photo of the same moth. In this photo you can see that it seems to tuck its head down into its chest floof.

It’s probably weird to say that, but I do have a lot of personal attachment to cockroaches. When I draw 1 roach, there are always another 10 more I wanna do! But there’s only so much canvas space so I had to make choices … swipe to see the species list!

🎨 #worldofwispers
worldofwispers.straw.page
A front page and authors note to the world of wispers field-guide. It has a title written in cursive ink that says, "Exploring the World of Wispers". Beneath the title is a drawing of a photo of the author, taken on an instant film camera with a sepia filter, it is drawn as if taped into the page. On the bottom white border of the photo there is a small note that says, "By me :)". There is an authors note at the bottom that says, "A documentation of the magical phenomenon known in folklore as 'wispers'. My aim is to find, observe and document all there is to know about these little creatures."

A field-guide styled page illustrating and explaining the life cycle of quilbugs magical wisper species. The first stage is 'Nature', illustrated by a patch of greenery in a forest. The second stage is 'Catalyst', illustrated by a glowing white swirl. There is a note beside it that says, "Something causes natural energy to form into a magical force." The third stage is 'Wispie', illustrated by a glowing swirl in a humanoid shape, with radiant lines coming from its head. The fourth stage is 'Fusion, illustrated by a some white radiant glow on the back of a black and yellow hoverfly. There is a note under it that says, "Nature and magic combine into one."

The Sixth stage is 'Life', illustrated by the hover fly wisper carrying a little bag and flying. There is a note under it that says, "Seemingly immortal, but can and will eventually be killed." The Seventh stage is 'Death', illustrated by the hover fly wisper getting caught by a quick frog tongue.
