This is lookin' pretty good so far. I like the sepia tone and textured look it has with brushstrokes and "paper."
I used to catch grasshoppers when I was a bit younger-- then I'd fry 'em and eat 'em, haha.

It was really just a random style I used for the comicking event so I wouldn't burn my eyes out staring at white glow for 24 hours, eheh.

... ... wait, you're serious. How young was that, considering you had access to something to fry them in? Also, were they tasty?! I think the most I did was catch baby crickets and feed them to spiders.

Haha, that was a good idea, and well-executed, too :u

And pf, yes ; I think it was about two years ago when I did it last, and I probably started it at about fourteen or something. I also fried up slugs and caterpillars and other small bugs. They're all alright, but I prefer meat as a source of protein instead, heh. I don't care much for the remaining exoskeleton.

...ooh. Is this a thing where you live, or did you just wake up one morning and decide to fry up some critters you found in the back yard, or--? I'd likely prefer meat too, mm, don't quite fault you there. Eheeh.

I think I thought of it after watching that Bizzare Foods show, haha. It could have been after something else when I started, but that was probably it.
I must say, though, even if I do prefer flesh-and-blood, caterpillars are my favorites so far; they have a really nice, nutty flavor.

I... will just take your word for that!

Though, I inhaled a flying insect today. Think I managed to swallow it, but my nose still feels funny.
