more bugs and monsters and eyes and teeth

[VIDEO TAKEN: APRIL 1ST, 2026 | Video ID: A video of a pair of black and orange bess beetles, the camera focuses in on one and then follows it over to the other one. Then, they notice each other and start fighting, trying to bite at and overturn each other, at some point both flipping onto their backs, all while making an aggravated squeaking sound at each other. /End IDs.]

I wanted the birds to look like they were actually in the space so first thing after doing the draft was to do a lighting study

after that I covered the walls in letters in lieu of a projector/vr headset bc i have neither of those :) Then i take a picture of the section of wall and superimpose the lineart over top of it so I can pencil in the lines

et voila

GIVE IT UP FOR BIRD NUMBUH 5, THE CANADIAN GOOSE, Branta canadensis!!!!
