clockworkutopia Asked:
So I've noticed Nae was a lot more... red, I guess? when she was young, and Tetsuo was completely different. What do other Greatlanders looks like before/during puberty? I really like how you did Nae and Tetsuo's development but I don't know a lot about bug developmental biology :s

whitemantis-stash:

Yeah, my bugs follow more or less real life in that aspect. Tetsuo is a moth, so before he was a moth, he was a caterpillar that went through metamorphosis. Same with Kurohasu, who is a beetle and was a little larva before. Nae and Sayaka only molt, but like orchid mantis and scorpion nymphs, they were red and white, respectively. Here be pics.
