Revenge for @aekur.xyz \o/

🎨 #artfight2025
A coloured character illustration of Hide the glasswing butterfly chemist holding up two vials triumphantly as they fire out a glowing chemical reaction above him. Hide is mostly shades of muted blue with a dark green body, head and abdomen, and neckfluff the same shade of white as his gloves. His wings are bordered with orange and yellow, with sheer windows inside. He wears a little pair of glasses and stares with an excited and maniacal expression at the glowing turquoise reaction.

Thank you for letting me draw your bug in my style!! I love when names are just a jumble of different maybe-related creatures, ie. Cricket the Bee Hawkmoth 🦗🐝xD
a roughly coloured sketch of quilbug's insect persona questioning Cricket the bee hawkmoth about whether they are a bee, a hawkmoth or maybe a cricket?? Quil is a thin and lanky, mostly green bug with red and yellow stripes on their back and abdomen, and transparent wings. Cricket is a mostly yellow and black bee mimicking hawkmoth with big fluffy poofs around their neck and on the ends of their limbs. They have transparent wings with thick bordered veins. They stand nervously as quil questions them with silly curiosity.

Thank you for letting me draw your bug in my style!! Cosmic firefly is such a cool concept :D My bug is enamored by his cosmic magic 🤩
A roughly coloured sketch of quilbug floating in space with cosmic firefly Stargazer, enamored by his display of cosmic magic. Quil is a thin and lanky mostly green bug with red and yellow bands on its back and abdomen. Stargazer is a light blue cosmic firefly with grey shoulder length hair, a star patterned coat, and patterns of galaxies in his eye and glowing abdomen.

Thank you for letting me draw your caterpillar in my style! My bug is thinking just how massive he'll be after metamorphosis :O
A roughly coloured sketch of fleabag's emperor caterpillar character greeting quilbug's insect persona. The caterpillar is twice as big as quil, and very fat and squishy looking. His top half is upright, and the rest of his caterpillar body trails behind him. He is mostly a greenish grey with an off white underbelly, yellow-green legs and head, and dull blue spikes on each segment. Quilbug is mostly green with red and yellow bands on their back and abdomen, and long antenna. We only see their back as they stare up at the caterpillar in awe.

Coloured-sketch commission done for Wix on Ko-fi! Inspired by the interaction sketches 💚

🎨 #bugart #anthro
A roughly coloured sketch of Wix the cuckoo wasp teaching quilbug's persona how to play a board game called Apiary. Wix has mostly iridescent blue chiton, with some pale red chiton on the tips of their antennae, their chest and under their abdomen. It holds instruction cards and pieces from the game, gesturing as it explains the rules. Quilbug is mostly green with red and yellow stripes on its back and abdomen, and transparent wings. It is in deep concentration, taking in what Wix is explaining. They both sit on either side of the open board game box, with pieces from the game strewn around them.

Thank you for letting me draw your spider in my style! I adore his colours and accessories :D
A roughly coloured sketch of Ciel the spider putting his top hat on quilbug's persona's head. Ciel is an anthropomorphized fluffy spider with light and dark purplish blue hues. He has two tufts of fuzz on his head that mimics ears. He wears a grey scarf around his neck. Quil is mostly green with red and yellow stripes on their back and abdomen and transparent wings. The black top hat being put on their head is way too big for them, and so it encompasses their head and covers their eyes.

Thank you for letting me draw your moth in my style, she is like an angel to my little bug!
A roughly coloured sketch of Anruf the moth sitting comfortably and holding a tiny quilbug on her finger. Anruf is a majestic moth with purplish grey chiton covered in parts with white fluff. Her fluff sits elegantly on her head and flows down to her shoulders and chest. Her wings drape behind her, and her arms rest on her folded legs. One arm lifts up to bring the little quil up to eye level with her. Quil is mostly green with red and yellow stripes on their back and abdomen, and is almost as big as Anruf's hand.

Thank you for letting me draw your bee in my style! My bug is rightfully awestruck by her singing voice✨
A roughly coloured sketch of quilbug's insect persona staring in awe at Eulema's singing performance. Eulema is a half-queen bee, standing much taller than quil and with a longer abdomen than drone bees. She is mostly yellow with brown stripes and white neck fluff. She stands tall and raises one arm out and the other to her chest as she sings. A silk cloth connected to her wrists drapes to her back. Quil is mostly green with red and yellow stripes on their back and abdomen and transparent wings. Quils wings flutter and they clasp their top hands together, as their heart is moved by Eulema's song.

New "Potato Bug" stickers made it in time for FE! I'll have them at my table this coming weekend and then in the shop once I reopen in April. 🐛

The sticker design is a cute brown insect sitting inside a red and yellow box of french fries, their hands resting on the box edge in front of them. The box says "Potato Bug" on the front with the U made into a smile with little eyes. The sticker being held up has been removed from its backing, showing it has transparent edges.
