Leif Bug Fables - Blog Posts
A little drawing of Leif from Bug Fables, because I really love his character arc and his lore. This little moth has been living rent-free in my head.
Some doodles of Leif from Bug Fables, with some extra notes from church tucked along the side! I have been enjoying this game so much, and this guy is my favorite. (And yes, Leif only has two arms in the game, but I felt like adding a little to his buggy-ness in my interpretation. 😛)
[Start ID. A digital drawing of Leif from Bug Fables in bright colors on a purple background. He is standing with his wings open, blocks of ice levitate above one raised hand and the other points at the ground. His sharp, insectoid features are emphasized somewhat. He isn’t incredibly expressive, but seems to hold himself in a determined manner. End ID]
Leif should get to be bright and spiky sometimes. as a treat
happy uhh. happy birthday Leif :)
[Start ID. A fullbody digital drawing of Leif, a moth from Bug Fables, in dark tones. He is standing with his wings partially splayed out. One arm is raised, and the other is obscured by a mass of glitching fungal tentacles that extend from a scar on his torso. He appears distraught or deeply fearful, with his eyes open wide and antennae lowered. Snowflakes gather around him, behind him are cordyceps motifs and a wall like one in Upper Snakemouth. End ID]
haven't drawn the bugs of fable in so long...
(feat. another rather static-y Swap AU Neo, from @professorneolith , because I still think it's a cool idea)
[Start ID. Two flat, unshaded drawings of Bug Fables characters on white backgrounds. The first is of Professor Neolith, a moth drawn in maple tones. He appears to be floating, with his legs bent and wings unused. One hand snaps, and his other palm faces the ground. He has a slight smile and seems altogether relaxed. A halo of electricity encircles him and two bolts extend from one hand. The second drawing depicts Leif, another moth, drawn in extremely bright colors. He is less relaxed, in the midst of a fight, with large spikes of ice circling around his feet. Two of his wings and his lower body splay outwards and to the left, and he is sharply bent at the waist, hunched over. One arm is raised, as though he was casting the ice magic visible below him. End ID]
Tried to make some palettes and ended up testing out four of the six so here: a Mosa, two Leifs, and dragon Corvo
I return with some stuff that is still self-indulgent but now also fandom. Snakemouth dragons
The Moth of Snakemouth Den, and Bugaria’s Leading Expert in Archaeology
Read the Team Fakemouth swap au by @professorneolith and felt compelled to make this (it's actually relatively short and that blog hasn't been active in a year but idc!!)
(Headcanons, with spoilers:)
- Both moths are the same age as they are in canon, but the whole Snakemouth Lab: Cordyceps Failed Experiment thing happened significantly later, Neo's team is a different, younger one than canon Leif's, and all its members are still alive. (With the technical exception of Neolith.) Leif was never an explorer at any point in time.
- Kabbu got into Bugaria the same way as canon (and never got to enact his revenge on the Beast). Leif was the one who met/helped Kabbu in the Lost Sands this time, and Kabbu and Neo have no relation besides briefly meeting post-Snakemouth in the Outskirts. We don’t actually know anything about Eetl’s backstory but it’s safe to assume it’s the same as canon here.
- Vi ran away to the Wasp Kingdom instead of the Explorer's Association. She was/is general under Hoaxe (I always thought Fuff became general during Vanessa's rule rather than Hoaxe's but I'm not actually sure?), though she's immune to his control.
Not sure how battle would go but I'm assuming that unlike Fuff who's boastful until his backup gets knocked down, Vi's better at combat, underestimated, and too hubristic for teammates.
Going to stop writing now so I can just post this instead of waiting two more days

I was hurrying so I'm not sure if this is the most accurate representation, but I've joined the summary and here are some of my favorite pieces from 2021!

Being an idiot on main again
I started this quite a while ago and I might add more later, but I'm good with posting just this for now.
Quirrel and Cloth from Hollow Knight in a Bug Fables art style, and Leif from Bug Fables as an HK moth.
I need to get better at erasing lol
Happy borth, moth man
I had a random Bug Fables dream the other day where Team Snakemouth (Leif in particular) was being pursued by this shapeshifting creature that was taking their forms to attack them. None of them knew why it was coming after them until they were running away and ran into another moth. Outside of having a white shell and being older (physically speaking), the moth looked nearly identical to Leif. That’s when the team realized the shapeshifter was after THIS guy, and it had mistaken Leif for being him.
Also random moth dude ended up being the leader of an entire moth clan that Team Snakemouth decided to help after that encounter.
Maybe one day I’ll doodle this, but for now enjoy the cool dream I had (or at least, the part of it that made sense, lol)
Random Leif doodle to practice some coloring/shading
As a random aside, every time I draw Leif my brothers call him Spiderman, and I stgif they do it again I'm gonna yeet them both out the window (ノ｀Д´)ノ彡┻━┻
Been a while since I drew the bug crew~ Also featuring my OC, Chell~
Have I mentioned that Chell is terrified of Leif?
Someone help me I have a bug infestation in my brain
Please tell me I wasn't the only one who thought Elizant was ready to go ham on those colosseum contestants after everything she had to put up with hsjdkflhsk.
shes a bit delulu but thats okay
Just spent a bazillion years making this guy, worth it.
Had a silly thought that reminded me of a silly quote that reminded me of them as something silly they would say.
Happy fourth. Happy pride. 💙
