Praying Mantis

Hi, 
I would like to show you a few stages of my study drawing for a Praying Mantis.
I used Photshop software and my Wacom tablet to draw it.
I like to draw on my pc as if I draw on paper without use any picture as supporting background. It´s a good way to stay in form.

Refining the figure and adding a background colour.

Beautiful. I like the progress pics and the final masterpiece. You should make another mantis, as this one shouldn't feel lonely.

come on, it looks ugly to ask for a vote like that
