Possibly the most impressive moth one can imagine, the Atlas has a huge wingspan of more than thirty centimetres...wider than my paper will allow, sadly! So this is not life size like the morpho was. {X>B I've been up all night drawing this, and I'm uploading the file in super-huge detail so you can have a good close look.

Drawn in colour pencils, wax pencils, woodless pencils, brush pens, india inks, gold gel pen, permanent marker (black) and white silicone pencil for highlights.

That green color that you used for the Celtic details is just sooo totally my flavor! Not to mention all the brown colors on the moff! It looks like a proper moth, as anything else you ever draw because it is insanely realistick! You can see that, just like in real life, the moth's wings have little ¨fur¨ textures! People like you need no camera sweetie, BRING ON THE PENS!!!!!!!!! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
