Artist's Comments

I did this picture entirely on a whim. It's a bumblebee girl, because honestly I love them; they are fluffy. How that translates into drawing a pinup of one is beyond me.

Got a bit stuck with the background at some points, but my boyfriend helped me figure it out. 8D Thank god for a second pair of eyes.

A Drink in the Garden by ~kittiara The suggester writes: "I think the reason I like this pic so much is just the uniqueness of the species that was chosen. A bumblebee is one of the stranger choices for an anthro pic but the artist pulled it off well. The result is a creature that is cute and believable at the same time. The background and actions of the subject also give a relaxed feel to the viewer which lets us appreciate it more." (Suggested by =Eggplantm and Featured by ^savagebinn)

Bumblebees are indeed sweet li'l fluffums. ^_^ 'course they also have two more legs than you drew. >.o But a stinger... Do they? I've never seen one with a stinger.

Female bumblebees have stingers, but they aren't barbed so, unlike honeybees, they won't die when they sting you.

And hey, there are many ways to draw anthropomorphic insects-- including leaving out their third pair of legs. :3

Fluffy? How about a moth? Moths are sexy >:3

Impia tortorum longos hic turba furores
Sanguinis innocui, non satiata, aluit.
Sospite nunc patria, fracto nunc funeris antro,
Mors ubi dira fuit vita salusque patent.

...there need to be more anthropomorphised insects. This is an adorable little bumble.

Insects freak me out, so the head is causing me to make some funny faces. It's not bad, though. Other than the head, I really like it.

I suppose it's a backasswards way of saying you did a great job, if it's real enough to bother me. lol
