This Insect Alphabet Took Me 2 Years To Complete

85

ADVERTISEMENT

I worked on this personal project for about 2 years. Yes, 2 years.

It was something I didn’t want to rush so I always left it aside when I had to work on something else. But finally I managed to give it more time and now it is done. For this one I used only colored pencils on paper.

    Thanks for the comments. I know what they are but that wasn't my point. It is not a scientifical project it is a design and drawing one.

    Paula, these are arthropods, insects are just a group within arthropods, you have a scorpio, a spider and a centipede, which are not insects

    We had a similar project before but the name of the insect should match each letter: A=ant. Good job, nonetheless!

    Community Member
    10 years ago Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    It's not based on the names you say "ant" I say "furnica" and so on in different languages.
