Thread Question: What sort of body type do you like your bugs to have?
>>72591930one with some cushion
>>72592204When you say some cushion do you mean just in the rear area or everywhere?
>>72592364The bigger the cushion, the better the pushin'
>>72591930Very bug with big abdomen.
>>72592364god damn
>>72592582Big bug butt
>>72592662I like this bug

>>72594924Careful, it's an evil bug
>>72592364Any other nominees for the 2025 best butt award?
>>72595808I'm sure there's a fair number of potential nominees for that
>>72595087By God, I'm sorry but that face and hair are horrendous.
>>72596079Seconded, genuinely surprised it's not supposed to be a post-TF pic
>>72591930I like taur shaped bugs.
>>72597138Not too common of a thing besides spiders, though there are at least a few mantis examples
>>72597275yeah, more bug species need to be drawn taur style
>>72597138Well I HATE taurs
>>72597369But why? What did they ever do to you?
>>72597393I dunno, I just don't like them. Spiders look fine with it though
>>72597437I'd say mantises can work too given the structure of the actual insect but other bugs don't really fit the look
>>72597138I prefer them to have 2 sets of arms instead of 2 sets of legs, I can understand it and am surprised I don't see bug-taur fans talking about millipedes.
>>72597561For centipedes/millipedes you'd think there would be more in that configuration given the popularity of lamias/nagas but most people seem to just make it into a tail instead
>>72597634I was actually just about to make that point. I would've expected people to try and give the longwife niche an arthropod analog.
>>72597437I've only liked one spider taur design and it's barely taur. Maybe that's why I like it.
>>72598283Yeah, it's surprising, and most of the few instances that do exist are male
Honey
>>72598958bigger
>>72598958Pot
>>72598964but then she'll be embarrassed
>>72599261wow she's going to let people die just because she's embarrassed?
>>72598958>>72598972Very nice stuff, with the honeypot as a firefighter and the mosquito as a nurse (even if only as a joke) it makes me wonder what sort of bug would be good for police work
>>72599341Thanks. I do wonder if any of these would fit a cop. Also, the mosquito girl being a nurse wasn't a joke, that's her actual job. Free blood.
>>72599402Didn't realize since the first nurse pic was just a comm for someone. As for that list, there are a few there that could work depending on how you want to frame it, like odonata or orthoptera for speed/chasing after criminals, shield bug for protection of citizens, or assassin bug since who would want to get on the wrong side of a bug with that sort of name
Also antlions and their pits for catching criminals
>>72599402>>72599341Why not a wasp, with dragonflies acting like eye-in-the-sky type units? They're defensive and fairly well organized. A chubby wasp cop who is mostly a desk jockey who only became chubby after too many donuts is a cute idea.
>>72599531>>72599554I was planning to do an assassin bug next but I do enjoy the idea of a law enforcement grasshopper even if it's probably cliche. Maybe an antlion could work too even though the adults don't make pits.>>72599622That's also a good idea but I kinda don't want to make another Hymenoptera. Chubby wasp though...
>>72599735Antlion detective maybe? What about a jumping spider cop?
>>72599735I'm pretty sure the idea would be distinct enough from Kamen Rider to not be cliche, could also try a buddy cop thing and knock out two at once
>>72599808>Antlion detective maybe?Damn, that could work too.>What about a jumping spider cop?Nah, I want to focus on insects for this 'project'. Sorry arachnids.>>72599812Yeah, I guess so. I'll think about it.I appreciate the help, fellas. I do love these threads.
art from a friend.
>>72599735I always get reminded of NVGs when I see jumping spiders.
>>72601145The best way to quench a thirst
>>72601191Sorta surprised there isn't more art of those two combined
>>72601288Pokemon did make a special ops spider. Unfortunately it's Spidops.
>>72601328Yeah, the spider that nobody likes
>>72601348who don't people like it?
>>72601935The design is rather unappealing and it's supposedly pretty bad to try and use, especially when compared to the other bug available
Bzzzzzzz
>>72601935They tried to make a spec ops (obviously) spider that lies in wait and traps enemies, but the camouflage is done poorly, and his pose makes him look more like a luchador trying to tackle you than a predator hunched over waiting to strike. It's also got this awful blocky feel where all the joints are far too emphasized for a drawing using flat colors with shaders. Even the eyes pop out which feels unnatural for it being little better than a kid's drawing.If they took it back to the drawing board and gave it a mottled camouflage appearance and a better pose, maybe it'd be okay.
Drew a silverfish lady since there's way too few of them.
>>72606580oooh she's pretty
>>72606580Very lovely bug, and a quite tall one too
Disappointed to learn grasshopper are not as popular as I thought.
>>72607763It's rather unfortunate
>>72606580Very niceNow do a springtail
>>72606618>>72607655Thanks!>>72609483What species in particular?
>>72611251NTA, but if he doesn't suggest one I'd say go for a snow flea/Hypogastrura nivicola
>>72611251I was thinking of a globular species like this
>>72613663fat fuck
>>72613694not nice
>>72613694It's just a big abdomen
Game I'm working on needed a necromancer enemy so Cordyceps.
>>72616653Cool stuff
>>72615475man the urge to slap that abdomen is strong
>>72615475do it jiggle tho
>>72616954Probably>>72616854It's certainly a nice abdomen
>>72616998I would not want to be running out of a burning building and have her in front of me.
Just discovered this thread. Very nice. >>72597561I want a centipede girl to wrap around me and give me a 30 leg hug
>>72619345That would definitely be a nice experience
short and sweet
>>72616653Have we heard about it before, or is has your game not been mentioned yet?
>>72623196I've talked about it before in these threads. It's not bug focused but it does have some bug enemies due to all the characters being funny animals.
>>72595946
>>72624284Lots of pollen
>>72612146>>72613663Why not both!
>>72629539the abdomen wrapped in scarves is super cute
>>72629539Thank you so much! This is great!
>>72629539Those are some spectacular bugs, thanks a ton
>>72634935stinger too small
>>72635350Most of the mass for her abdomen must have gone to her butt instead
>>72630435>>72631034>>72631382Thanks! Glad you like them.
>>72636314You happen to have a blog or something with more of your art?
>>72637088I've got a fa account called lizardanon. So yeah, I mostly draw scalies.
>>72629539super cute
>>72637208Oh, you're the guy who drew the royal jelly thing a while ago, very nice stuff
>>72639596It's his kid he should have to worry about in regards to that
>>72643995>Bee named BeaAlright, bugfuckers, gimme your best(worst) bug pun names
>>72644549I know bianca, annabee, and motthew have been used before
>>72644549Any sort of Ant- name like anthony or antoinette, Anne Tenna, Amothe as a last name
i want to make a bug girl. i'm thinking a centipede, does anyone have any good art of that?
>>72648864What's your plan for the body layout?
>>72648945I quite like this centipede from Kuriathan (but he deleted all his art because he had a melty)I want mine to be a bit more of a chub girl though
>>72649125
>>72649125Yeah, that's an interesting one, liked that the back part went beyond just being a tail like other centipede OCs and can actually hold weight
There's definitely a fair number of different interpretations out there
these are all pretty dope anon, thanks. bugs i think provide more creative opportunities than most anthros do, it's neat
>>72649630They're just so unique that it makes it easy to create really cool stuff if some effort is put in
>>72648864Smug centipede gf, but with sizable taters.
>>72648945If spider girl didn't have spinnerets on her abdomen, where should they go? (I think walking on spider gf masturbating while knitting you a scarf would hot af)
>>72650673Putting it anywhere but where it should be would probably just end up being weird, besides the issue of it being a nuisance by making wherever it is sticky for any other use. That image is somehow not the first time I've seen breast silk though
Doodled bugs
>>72651471Nice, so you ended up going for the buddy cop thing or are they different roles?
>>72651608Different roles. Dragonfly's an aviator .
>>72651662Cool, definitely an easy pick for a dragonfly
>>72637251Yes, that was a while ago. Nowadays there aren't that many of these drawing challenges on /v/ anymore or at least not many that draw my interest.
>>72651800It's hard to have to stuff like that with the moderation and the general want to argue there
>>72644549roach-elle?
>>72592538Make the pain stop.
>>72651876true
>>72658367lady I think you had enough
>>72658709I'm sure she could store more
>>72663299dude, no
>>72663299dude, yes
>>72663457They're probably just trying to intentionally irritate people
