pen and ink. It took like 3 hours or so. A little something is lost in the scan but it looks close. Crits? Comments?
Thanks.

    I like it a lot. Does it desire brains or nectar?

    Or ambrosia, nectar of the gods, which as everyone knows is made of human brain juices and elbow grease.

    Yes, well, there does not seem to be a light source and your line weight is kinda evenly spaced out, giving it more of a flat look. The detail is great and he looks very menacing. However, since this is a zombie flyer and not a zombie walker, I wonder just how well this little guy would fair if his wings decayed off.

    He'd prolly keep flying. Zombees are durable AND magical!

    The image kicks ass, but it's more of a mutant-zombie than straight up zombie bee. Generally speaking, hexapods don't have "knees" or teeth, and their abdomens are made of overlapping "plates".

    The shading is a bit distracting, it took me a few seconds to figure the picture out. After the first 3 seconds it looks excellent though. You could try digitally making a more obvious light source, and if it works out, adding it to the actual piece.

    The concept is interesting, but the biggest issues are the lack of focus (It's extremely busy, your eye has no idea where to start and stop in this picture) and the lack of depth--particularly around the mouth all of the details just melt together and you have to study it to figure out what is going on.
