The More I Draw And The Further My Progress Goes - The More Time I Need To Draw. So I've Come To Realization

The more I draw and the further my progress goes - the more time I need to draw. So I've come to realization that I need double amount of time for art challenges if I want to participate in one. Just can't simplify and fast pace art, it doesn't feel like I've achieved something if I rush everything. So I'll be careful next time choosing the most interesting art challenges in the bunch. And I had a lot of fun with funguary :) Here is the last bunch of fungi, and not so much, fellas

A retouch of an old old piece! Still super proud of it, didn't need all that much work to bring it up to standard. Mizutsune taking a cozy lil nap!

nereid worms (Alitta sp.) prowling the tidal mudflats

nereids and other predatory polychaete worms (such as bobbit worms) are related to earthworms but have a more complex brain, leg-like parapodia, eyes, antennae, and sharp retractable jaws for grasping prey. I think of them as marine centipedes.

normally they stay out of sight buried in the mud, so I was a bit surprised to see these ones crawling out in the open, various smaller invertebrates scrambling out of the way to avoid becoming the worms’ next meal.
