Steps in drawing a praying mantis

Firstly I prepared my materials that was going to be used then I started by drawing the head starting from the eye till I finished drawing the head. I drew the two eyes one bigger and visible while the other just almost half. Then I drew a structure just to join the two eyes and that was the head.

After drawing the head I went ahead and draw the neck. Normally the neck of a praying mantis is always very long. I drew it as was directed by the main source. In drawing the neck, you will need to draw it with care so as not to make any mistake though any mistake in an art work is a design.

After drawing the neck, I drew the body starting from the wings then to the main body. In my drawing, the wings and the body are being joined together not flying. After drawing the body I went ahead to draw the all the leg on the praying mantis.
