OMG! I was going through the internets... and well... LOOK WHAT I FOUND! O:


I was so excited when i saw this GORGEOUS creature, cause the first thing i thought... I GOT TO GET A SAM LIKE THAT!

Isnt he just gorgeous! Mind you, im not a HUGE fan of bugs.. well not around me.. lol they are Great from Afar... BUT this bug is so freakin gorgeous I couldnt help but love it for its colors.

It is a Green Jewel Beatle. :D

What do you think? Do you think the colors are gorgeous or what?!

Now... for you guys. I NEED YOUR HELP! Id like to make sam based off of this bug. I dont particularly want it to be "bug" like, but i wouldnt mind the suggestions of bug like traits. ^_^;; so... what traits would you think would go well with these colors...


^_____________^ Im still not sure what id do myself, ill have to post my personal ideas when i get home (i are still at work ^_^;;) I just wanted to get this up so i dont forget! lol.

Thanks for your help and ideas guys! Its ALWAYS appreciated

Pretty beetle! I recommend clubbed antennae like those of the beetle and maybe wings with a beetle carapace.

Pity you're only allowed 2 very rare traits on a custom. You could do antennae, armor, Faery Wings, and multiple legs :D

I found that they make jewelry out of the bugs hard skeletons. and THAT is why they are called jewel beatles. lol cause they are made into jewelry. Its actually very neat. :D

So now.. im kinda on a new idea. A tribal female who has jewelry of the bug! O: Im thinking she will be black with her back the colors of the bug. and on the tips of her legs as well. ill leave sushi with the general colors and design. I just want to give her the ideas. :3 She never fails xD

::fans Sushi and massages her shoulders:: Whew, she's gonna have fun working on the coloring! I bet you she'll be able to make it look fabulous, though ;}

I think she'd look awesome with sort of Egyptian-inspired jewel beetle jewelry! I know Egyptians usually had scarabs in their art, but it still might look cool on a Tribal! :D
