Description The Chitin Swarm is feared far and wide:
for their skilled archers and the few, but unstoppable elite melee fighters, easily recognizable by their heavy chitin armors.
Their biggest weapons, however, are the fearsome large centipedes, which the Swarm raises and trains from hatchlings and their massive beetles,
from whose backs the archers rain down destruction upon their enemies.
But life in the Swarm is hard, always on the move looking for food and new raiding targets. These children of Clan Borboga will find the next few years
especially difficult after the death of their father – foraging for food will be tough until the eldest is strong enough to use the massive bow that he inherited,
while at the same time taking care of their most precious possession, the beetle carrying them with the rest of the horde. Without it,
they'll surely be left behind and would become easy prey for any warrior looking to get their hands on one of the famous Swarm bows.

I hope that you do continue! Your art is amazing, and it would be a great loss to the art community as a whole if you decided to give it up. That being said, if ever the need arises, make sure you take care of yourself, but I hope that such a day will never come, because your art is incredible, and it will only get even better with time! 

Keep up the great work.

Good idea ingeniously depicted. Evocative and earthy impression while being at the same time far-fetched fantastic.

The oxygen levels of the planet this is happening on must be through the roof. (If you're wondering, he size of an insect is proportionate to the levels of oxygen in the atmosphere, so more oxygen means larger insects.) Great pic btw! And nice story to boot.
