Moth Of The Day #15
Oleander Hawk-moth
Daphnis nerii
From the sphingidae family. They have a wingspan of 9-13cm, they are quite large. They tend to inhabit coastal areas. It is found in Africa, Asian, and Hawaii. Because it is a migratory species, you may find them in parts of eastern and southern Europe during the summer.
Today is my birthday, so you get my favourite moth ever. I hope you enjoy.

if you could shapeshift into any creature what would it be
Ive never really thought about that, but maybe some kind of colorful moth? Or maybe one of those animals that kind of looks like a dragon but Isn't. (Image ids in alt text)

bugposting. insects are pretty prominent in elven culture and traditions, particularly Soraeven sects, so i figured they feature heavily in cuisine. i thought where Zeke and Pietre live it's not easy to find insect-based foods so Pietre settles for alternative lol

Have you done an Oleander hawk-moth for the outfits yet?
Tumblr media
[image description: semi realistic digital art rendering of a fancy shawl dancer. They have medium brown skin, gold and silver piercings, and green regalia with white fringes and light tan moccasins. They run frantically with a worried look on their face. The design on their vest resembles the shape of the hawkmoth featured next to them, cropped in a circle. Their underskirt and leggings are dark with, and is a sparkly material that shines light green and light blue in the light. end description.]
(from the "send me a moth or butterfly species and I'll draw a fancy shawl dancer inspired by it" series)

Sphingidae moth propoganda!!!
my favorite moth family because it just DOES NOT MISS. every single moth this family puts out is a win. contains such wonderful creatures as
Tumblr media
the white-lined sphinx, which is about the size and shape of a hummingbird and hovers in midair to sippy from flowers
Tumblr media
the elephant hawkmoth, which is colored like a frickin pokemon
Tumblr media
the poplar sphinx moth, amongst which gynandromorphs are unusually common (intersex moths!), as pictured here
Tumblr media
the oleander hawkmoth, which looks like someone spilled green and purple paint all over it and eats mostly poisonous plants
Tumblr media
the gardenia bee hawkmoth, who imitated a bee so hard that their wings are clear and they got fuzzy butt pompoms
Tumblr media
the narrow-bordered bee hawkmoth, who is doing much better at looking like a bee
Tumblr media
the willow herb hawkmoth, who looks so. perfectly green. love this thing
Tumblr media
the levant hawkmoth, who’s got a sleek rose gold type coloration
Tumblr media
the eyes pink and green hawkmoth. the silhouette, the colors, the pattern. no notes
and of course, everyone’s favorite…
Tumblr media
the delightfully goth death’s head hawkmoth
this little dude may be the icon of spooky fans everywhere but he also can bark!
many more lovely sphinx moths exist, and they can be found worldwide, so go. look up your local sphinxes. plant their favorite foods. and tell them you love them.

Hello! I want to draw a moth oc in the style of cuphead and was wandering if you have any moths to recommend me? A white one and one of your own color choice would be good!
BOY DO I. May I suggest the white plume moth, Pterophorus pentadactyla, because they are tiny and beautiful and look like fairies. If you don't want it to be ALL white, I'm a big fan of the sagebrush sheep moth, Hemileuca hera. Also love love love the white witch, Thysania agrippina, which has the largest wingspan of any moth in the world, although they are more sorta light beige and brown than white.
If I were gonna choose a moth to base an OC around personally I might go with the princely tiger moth, Chrysocale principalis, which has some wild colors. Or maybe the Chinese moon moth, Actias dubernardi, which is so pretty it looks fake, or possibly the comet moth, Argema mittrei. Or maybe the oleander hawkmoth, Daphnis neri, which has beautiful shades of green. Wallich’s owl moth, Brahmaea wallichii, has some really cool patterns you could work with. If you wanted to get wild and base it on a caterpillar instead of an adult moth, I would recommend Citheronia phoronea, which looks like a weird spiny goth.
If none of these do it for you, I’d check out photos on inat of lepidopterans here. You can filter by family if you’re particularly into a certain type of moth :)

OH LORE THAT NEEDS TO BE IN THE TAG!! terminology update: people who were party of Drydera's Soraeven communions are known as Hawkmoths post-Awakening. Hawkmoth member/Hawkmoth cultist/Hawkmoth are all applicable titles.
the ceremony where Hawkmoths ritually become Liches is also renamed. it used to be called the Ascension, but thats boring and predictable. it is now called the Metamorphosis, because bugs
