First off, I must say. . .this made me smile. I really like the shading on the skin as well as the way you created 'folds' from where the maggot is 'e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="
" title="Wink/Razz" />opping' out. This is definitely creepy and DEFINITELY made me cringe at the thought of a maggot -or any bug- coming out of my skin. I love the way you put less detail on the other fingers in the distance, it brings more attention to the horror scene. As for improvement, I do think you would need a bit more blood, as well as some more tears where the maggot has popped out. It looks more like you have a normal hole in your hand and it just comes and goes as it pleases. Over all, this is very good and I love it so much~ Great job!

This is really brilliant.
I love how the hand is positioned, giving the maggot a good position to come out of the hand.
Though, you could have gone for more blood, as well as some tearing of the skin instead of just bunching up around the maggot.
It makes it look like it wasn't as forceful as an event as it should have been.
But over all I really love it. Props.

From a distance I thought it was a carrot. I was worried that your worst fear was someone stabbing a carrot into your wrist, and wondered when this would ever happen. I'm happy to learn that maggots, and not carrots are your worst fear.

It's cool because there's actually a Central American insect that can do that. It's called Dermatobia hominis, or Human Bott Fly. They lay their egg on your skin and the tiny larva burrows its way in and feeds on the skin tissue. They may cause some skin irritation and give you one nasty looking blemish but that's about the worst of it.

This is amazingly well drawn, and gives me the creeps!
Hands are hard to draw, and you've done an admirable job. Perhaps the maggot could be a little more threatening-looking... but it's scary enough as it is The shading is beautiful.
Well done.

very good work with the hand.
the ripple in the wound is life like and the shading is good....the maggot could use a bit of touch up around the mandibals.(my opinion)
don't get me wrong it kicks ass. my worst fear isn't something that symple lol.....

Nice work, the hand is perfectly made. Maybe should the worm look more aggressive or vicious?
Awesome anyway!
