This little moth was such a joy to work on. It took many layers to build up the fur the way I wanted, but in the end I was happy with it. Moths have been one of my favorite insect groups since childhood. I was completely smitten when I saw the giant moth in City of Ember, which was part of the inspiration for Alma. She’s a bit more colorful, though. :)
