Description I'm still playing around with its anatomy.
Moths don't have pincers, but I kind of want it to have pincers in its mouth, to help with expressions. Technically moths don't have mouths eather, but it would be hard to do facial expressions without one :C
Also, I'm trying to come up with weapon ideas, any suggestions?
I would like color suggestions too.

You'd be surprised how much emotion you can convey with body language and the eyes alone, even if the character lacks a mouth. Look at some of Kahea's "Demon Inside Me" stuff to get an idea.

Very creative, but then I would expect no less from you.

Actually, it might be good practice to not rely on a mouth for expressions. Your right, wall-e didn't have a mouth and his emotions were apparent. I'll look at Kahea's stuff c:
Thanks!

He's a muscly macho moth of manliness.

I like the colors.

Maybe... its wings could be its weapons? xD When they're curled up of course. Perhaps they aren't as fragile as normal moth wings, but then again, it doesn't seem to exactly be a normal moth. ^^

The arms are so short you may have trouble finding a weapon that would work.

Also what do the wings look like when not rolled up?

yeah, maybe I should do something about the arms, they annoy me

I'm going to base them off of gypsy moth wings, if I ever wanted to use this character for something, I would probably add that to the reference, clean up the sketches and add some anatomy charts.
