voraz, nice sketch series. I like the mosquitoes and the fact that you initially drew them from observing the actual specimen under a microscope. It reminds me of the days when scientists had to document all of their biological finds by life-drawing instead of using cameras with strobes and macro-lenses.
Thanks for the compliments voraz and Rebecca.
-voraz-,
You’re doing some really stunning work! 
Nice to see this thread alive…I think it was one of the first created on the forum, way back in the day. Keep up the good work! 
Thanks rebbeca! 
I like painting and drawing animals so there will be more stuff in the future!
Thans too Quadart, yes the highlights were done with white gouache, slightly tonned with watercolour, hey I suck at keeping the withes and it was also a sketch so I didn’t have much time to prepare that stuff, though it ended up taking quite some time (I think about 2 hours) due to the work it was to build up the black in watercolour…
a anteater:
Some of my critters are more of a caricature (many on greeting cards) like this old worn out horse that the buzzard is worried about…
(Corel Painter and PhotoShop)
And this one who is showing the rider how to “ride drag” (the cowboy that rode at the back of the herd and got all the dust and best views… and aromas)
This horse apparently specializes in riders who are “frequent flyers”
