Bugust Day 7: Fan Bug Fridays! #1
Dupe belongs @flame-shadow.bsky.social
Bugust Day 8: Team Slacker!
Bugust Day 9: Boss Sundays! #2
flame-shadow's Dupe looking at the viewer, with their tounge out and their hand in the shape of an L on their forehead. Well, the years start comin’ and they don't stop comin'. Fed to the rules an- Team Slacker looking intimidating at the viewer while having their weapons drawn. The False Monarch being slumped over like a puppet having lost support. Their crown fell to the ground and you can see the mothflies inside them have fallen asleep.

So my brother is into protein smoothies, and I told him to start pouring out the smoothie water (not soap, just the fruit rinsate) on this pile a few months ago. As it turns out, doing this generates unlimited mothflies. If you're ever in a pinch and need mothflies, I suggest smoothie water
A mothfly is a grey colored fly that is very fuzzy and holds its wings down across its back like a moth

Mothfly's Dens

[ #bugfables #mothfly #bug #bugs ]
A little idea i had before thinking about mothflies making tunnels around the Forsakens lands for themselves

Huddle of Curiosity

[ #bugfables OCs, Tree and Harmony (who belongs to @sappedsoliloquist.bsky.social) ]
a colored sketch of some bug fables ocs. harmony, a wasp mimic moth, stands with delight and awe at Tree, a mothfly collective entity with four "heads" that encircle her. there are other mothflies flying or standing around, too. harmony is colored with a honey-yellow while Tree and the mothflies are warm purple.

i also did a bunch of my bug fables ocs as stickers :)
This second page of stickers has Lorlei, a roach, Gina, an ant, and two drawings of Aesa, a lace bug. Lorlei is running and holding a large pen that can carry multiple cartridges. Gina has a large lavender backpack on, a pink bandana around her neck, and is holding a poison bomb in her right hand. Aesa has two poses- in the first, she's tired and slightly hunched as she takes an order on a notepad. Inn the second, she's standing confidently while holding spy cards. This third page of stickers has Terimere the red, orange, and yellow ichneumonid wasp, Brine the blue longhorn beetle, and Hessi the green mining bee. Terimere looks happy as he holds up some windchimes. Brine looks left and waves. Hessi has two drawings showing her at two different stages of her life- in the first, she's younger and wearing a brown jacket, and she sits, resting an elbow on a knee and smiling and winging flirtatiously at the viewer. In the second, she's older, has burn scars along her left side, is wearing a lab coat and glasses, and looks tired as she rests her chin on her hand. This final page of stickers has Barky the tree-like beetle, Tree the mothfly colony, Corey a firefly, and Pepsi a zombie bee. Barky has bark for elytra, leaves as a collar, and a woody horn. They are bending down and patting a small mushroom. Tree is just standing around- it is composed of four false citizen-like branches that each have a weird mask and they're all connected by a patchwork of fabrics; there is a mass of mothflies peeking from underneath. Corey is a sedate red-brown and teal colored firefly with tan hair and a blue cap; they have a neutral pose and pleasant smile and hold an empty picture frame at their side. Pepsi is kneeling on the ground and hugging a can of pepsi that has been opened. This post has four images, each is a page of four stickers of different Bug Fables OCs. In this image are four drawings of beetle characters. Magnolia, a red and yellow junebeetle looks determined and holds her large club like a bat. Besar, a red and blue beetle with a missing right hand stands and looks toward the viewer; his right eye has a scar over it. Jim, an orange ladybeetle, stands with a cane in one hand and is waving with the other hand. Finally, Magnolia again, this time wearing leaves as a mask, collar, poncho, and skirt; she is rushing forward like a rugby player.

Forsaken Lands [Abandoned Town]
Bug Fables OC Collab [18/26]

Credits below
A collaborative illustration collage showing Bug Fables OCs occupying the abandoned town in the west corner of the Forsaken Lands. There are generic mothflies scattered around plus some characters in the center who are mothflies. One wears a green cap with a star on it. There are some mothfly false citizens too: a massive, four-"person" character with more mothflies spilling out the underside of the disguise, a two-headed character sitting on one of the heads of the previous one. There are many mothflies occupying the red mask and fluffy cloak of another false citizen. And two mothflies stacked atop each other and wearing a cloak to make them appear like a single short bug. In the back is a large ant mimic spider wearing a collar and holding a mothiva plush in their mouth. Finally, there are a grey shrike and a dragonfly.

Termite Capitol [Blue]
Bug Fables OC Collab [17/26]

Credits below
A collaborative illustration collage showing Bug Fables OCs occupying the main square of the Termite Capitol. This version has a blue hue to the lighting. A termite with a blue scarf stands on the curb under the light post. A sad looking moth holding a bowl of berry juice watches a line of mothflies wearing mafia hats scurry on their way. In the back, a robot waves. Next to it are a blue roach ghost and a roach wearing a red coat. Two termites walk and consult a map nearby. A firefly with a guitar on their back looks ahead through the fog as they walk. A dark grey and brown moth holds hands with an orange bug wearing a blue sweatshirt. A termite sits dazedly in a chair while an excitable bug gestures at a chalkboard as he explains something. In the corner are a nimbnail and two small blue bees. One waves and winks at the viewer.
