Total drawing

Duc, no one disputes that photos are good (and good photos are even better!). I would generally single out total drawing, photography and scanography in separate types of art and everyone is free to choose what is more convenient and pleasant for him. K. Makarov is a great photographer, but he draws no worse. At the same time, looking at the drawings of K. Dovgailo, you always think that the existing digital technology has not yet grown to such a level.
So, dear KDG, if suddenly, our native polygraphy will not be able to convey all the nuances of photos that you need, and my modest abilities will suit you, please contact us. We'll make a deal!

I do not consider the facets of art at all (even if someone likes to sculpt from plasticine), I am interested in a purely applied aspect.
And otechestvennaya printing and drawing can kill. And by the way, I don't like the bourgeois print in the Magellan Notebooks series either. But in fact-the main (for me) problem in printing is the lack of free or inexpensive color. B / w photo magazines take without objections, and for the color obyno want money and usually considerable. This is certainly their right, especially if the print is excellent, but you can't stick 50-100 color photos out of your pocket...
Thank you for the suggestion.

Dear Denis (if I figured you out correctly)!
And can I, as a novice photographer and entomologist, ask you for help in identifying one barbel I photographed? I'm not a mustache specialist.

Thanks! I'll send it to your email address, but I can't insert a picture here.

If you don't mind, Dina, just for the sake of curiosity

About the photo. Our institute bought a photo camera, in my opinion at 5 mp. With a microscope, it is very convenient to take pictures! Later I will bring some photos taken through a microscope. And here is a photo taken using a 1.3 mp mobile phone. Of course, the photo is not very good, but this is due to the 4x magnification, when the quality of the photo drops significantly (just because of the personal qualities of a mobile phone with 1xfold, it turns out too small and far, but when working with the camera, it turns out perfectly!). I have already posted some photos - those were taken simply with a camera, without magnification.
Such a camera costs about 200-something bucks.
Well, those who like to draw should continue to draw.

The model?

according to many drawings from Jacobson, and from Reitter, beetles are not only difficult to determine, but impossible. So, by the way... The determinant and other scientific works should primarily meet their direct tasks.

I absolutely agree. I haven't seen any drawings from Reitter, but in the Jacobson Determinant, this is exactly the case.

I specifically referred to the author of the drawings in Jacobson. And it is not clear who can not be identified there?

omar, look at the ground beetles. Especially large genera. Will you insist that these drawings will help you identify better than photos?

"The model? "
And figs knows it, I can ask if you're interested.
