Where did it go?

I created a new art blog for personal art and fan art : )  You can find it here: http://www.cricketcreates.tumblr.com.  If you are interested in seeing my OCs, fan art, and other not-serious stuff, check it out.  You can still find all of my more ‘serious’ artworks and biological illustrations here at hartleart. 

Thanks!

~ [Bug - a - Day] ~ 19 - 1/13/13 - Allomyrina dichotoma- “Kabutomushi” - Watercolor & Ink (Sketch - http://hartleart.tumblr.com/post/39995843642/i-recently-decided-i-was-going-to-draw-a-bug-every) My first attempt at seriously doing watercolor in this particular sketchbook…It’s been rather frustrating because I typically use 300lb hot press paper when I do my watercolor pieces.  This didn’t turn out too terribly but the paper did pull up and get pulpy because of the water, though this is a watercolor sketchbook.  Frustrating, but I’m just going to have to change my technique a bit.  I might transfer some of these onto my usual paper because I am more comfortable with it, and it’s smooth so doesn’t pull up with my strokes. But I rather like the pencil & watercolor style, and I think tracing it would just not be the same, so for now, here’s this attempt.  I may even try this piece again transferred, but I need a break. Sorry for the text block.

~ [Bug - a - Day] ~ 15 - 1/9/13 - Venenilepidoptera Malusala - “Venomoth” (and Venonat) Used the name from this mighty venture: http://toddm.deviantart.com/art/Pokemon-Classification-128358419!  They spent a ton of work on this, way more than I would ever want to. xD  Cool stuff.

~ [Bug - a - Day] ~ 14 - 1/8/13 - Stagmomantis Caelum - “Skyloft Mantis” LoZ Mantis this time!  I love how fierce they are!  Made up another scientific name for this one.  I’m no expert but I thought they looked most like the common Carolina mantids around here.

pokebolaaa: hartleart: I recently decided I was going to draw a bug every day.  Here are the results so far… 12 - 1/6/13 - Allomyrina dichotoma- “Kabutomushi” Heracross beetle! : ) That moment when you realize that your favorite show really isn’t very creative, I mean seriously, Heracross is the actual name of a beetle, fml lol I should clarify - this is the beetle Heracross was based on~  Its name is actually the Japanese Rhinoceros beetle.  I think the Pokemon designers are actually very creative (most of the time, anyway)! (I accidentally reblogged this on BOTH my other accounts before I got it right and reblogged it here, haha, I’m such a derp sometimes.)
coleoptera-kinbote: Your beetles are really great! I'll be waiting excitedly for more :)

Thank you very much! I’m trying to upload everything in batches, but I should have more soon.
