I've found a few inspiring pieces of reference for this week's Illustration Friday word. My son found a HUGE bug on our front porch this weekend:
The Eastern Hercules Beetle, the largest beetle in the USA at a full 2 inches or more. The other piece of reference was finding a photo of those
obese Osaka Zoo monkeys that were all over the net a couple of years ago... they crack me up. I merged the two pieces together into a prehistoric or other-worldly scene inspired by
a classic Frank Frazetta pyramid layout. Power in the primordial soup...
