Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
With Chrysina limbata around, you won’t need a mirror! This species has an especially shiny exoskeleton, reflecting up to 97% of the light that hits it. In the wild, the mirror-like reflective surface may fool potential predators into thinking the beetle is just a drop of water- effectively serving as conspicuous camouflage.

If you like what I do, consider leaving a tip or buying me a ko-fi!

Shifting Jewels - Painite's Design
Finally got around to finishing this off. Painite went through a lot of design changes, I couldn't really get what I saw in my mind on the page. He still isn't exactly as I want him, but ey, at least he's got a design now.
Also, shoutout to @phoenix-ash234 for giving me some much-needed inspiration into finishing Painite's corrupted form.

I am not immune to bug leg Scarab propaganda
#my art#I was going to add little knuckle jewels for the Sexy but it would’ve been a lot of lines in a small area#still I think he should’ve had a few more spikes. as a treat#they’re inspired by actual scarab beetles arm spikes. also he would rip someone to shreds w/ those#scarab#scarab fionna and cake#scarab the god auditor

Since HiveWings resemble bees/hornets, I imagine they fly like ones

Jewel scarab beetles. When Insecta first met Groa and saw how the light caught on the metallic parts of her body, she instantly thought of jewel scarabs specifically the sliver variety and how the two had this in common.

The Creature Awaits #160:
Each week I plan to feature an amazing creature, admiring God's fantastic artistry. Hopefully it’ll brighten someone’s day to see something new and interesting if they haven’t seen it before. : )
Welcome to "Antique Gold Animals" month, where we'll be featuring animals of said beautiful hue.
(Beautiful photographs taken by Gail Hampshire (CC BY 2.0))
The Golden Jewel Scarab
Scientific Name: Chrysina resplendens
Region: Primarily Mexico and Central America, but branching slightly Northward and Southward from there
Size: About .6"-1.4" (~1.5cm–3.5cm) long
Interesting Notes: There are roughly 100 named species of Jewel Scarab in a wide range of metallic colors (various greens being the most common) and sometimes even with patterns of differing metallic hues.
