Description
Wow, this would be my first formal commission! With no fee.
It's a bunch of fruit fly students, wearing lab coats, studying genetics. My biology teacher asked me to draw this for a university professor, who is generous to provide our AP biology class free living fruit flies and related equipments. Those fruit flies are mutated: many have white eyes, while some have curly wings.
Our class will make it into a big thank you card. I really hope that my drawings can bring people joy.

Hehe, thank you very much! 
I'm happy to hear that you can connect my drawing to what you're studying. Will you tell me his reactions?

Of course! It might take a while, since he's out of town but once I manage to show it to him I'll let you know!
And definitely go for biology! It's a great, fun, major no matter what you specialize in!

I really love entomology, if you'd like to know.
That's why I have some insect comics in my gallery.

(I didn't draw this very seriously, shhhh....)
I drew a fruit fly before but I felt the need to re-design them.

They make science look fun. XD

Maybe they look a bit too happy for scientists. Well who knows? There're a lot of people having fun through science.
But it's a thank you card so I want it to be happy.

Well, I do think it should show that science is fun and it should be.

Everyone would be surprused to see how many monsters have scientists created in their labs...
