Daddy bug and mummy bug go on an excursion with Junior. They want to reach the lovely manuka fields in order to have a great meal.

Edit:
- changed size of birds
- added shadow to sign and plant
- added some grass
- roughened the surface
- changed the sky (5 years and 3043 days ago)

1) add 'lighting' effects for the bugs based on the sun position
2) fade the bugs shadow near the bottom of the picture
3) add plant n signage shadows
4) add a gradual tone for the sky
5) make the sizes of the birds different to indicate distance
6) make the ground a little ruggard, now too 'smooth' and straight

nice concept

Thanks for your suggestions aheman!
I tried to implement at least a few. I am not sure if adding the grass was a good idea.

Very cute, author. The bugs' construction reminds me of the old Cootie Bug toys.

Thanks pearlie. That's true, I had the German version of those toys. They looked a little bit different but the main principle was the same.
