A spread from my second "parafable", this one based on the story of the ant and the grasshopper, but with a bit of a "prodigal son" slant. This isn't the first image in the story, but the first spread shows the inside of an ant's nest and is a crowd scene, so I decided to leave it until later and start with something easier.
The hardest thing to get my head around with these pictures is the scale, as in: how big would cornflakes and a coke bottle be in relation to an insect? I've had to take some licence with the size of the ant as a realistically sized ant would be tiny compared to a grasshopper and unable to interact with the grasshopper the way I need him to in this story.
