Flowering Trap Fly

This started life as a quick sketch done in 2021. A number of months ago I decided I’d work on it some more, then didn’t start doing so until yesterday. Finished it a few minutes ago.

I was trying to go for something a bit creepy, a bit dangerous in feel. Not sure if it came through well enough, but what this thing was became more apparent as I worked on it. It is sort of meant to be dangerous and creepy, but also a bit goofy and not dangerous to many things.

The flower is the real head, and the body down below helps with camouflage. The body can appear as ground in certain areas, with the legs looking a bit like bits of decaying wood. It also appears to have wings, but it doesn’t. They’re just markings.

I don’t know why I made the tongue so long.

I hope you enjoy.
