Missed this and the white striped hyena. Figures these would be the ones I like the best!


I missed the stripey ones, too. Here's hoping we'll both get them eventually!

Oh boy, this guy is an Imperial Tortoise Beetle(Stolas imperialis) and was a pain to color. Man I was completely lost on how to correctly replicate the effect of such a stunning, colorful specimen and hopefully I managed to do a decent job ^^'.

Another very fascinating fact about tortoise beetles is that, while they show such extremely colorful patterns, their shells dull out drastically once they die. Dead specimens always look quite pale and brownish in color, not doing justice to their living state at all. I find this brilliant because, given many beetle species are vallued as jewels due to their colors and metalic shine, these little fellas are much more valluable alive than dead.

The lone wanderer. So tired, so miserable.
All but a mere shadow of an once vibrant soul.

Cursed by fate, burdened by sorrow.
Sentenced to a life of nothing but loneliness...
It looks like not everyone deserves a happy ending, after all.
