This species has a wingspan of 36–46 mm. The forewings are broader than most other noctuids, blackish with a network of fine white lines (supposedly reminiscent of some elements of gothic architecture). The hindwings are grey. The species flies at night in June and July.[1] It sometimes comes to light but is not generally strongly attracted. By contrast it is strongly attracted to sugar and flowers.

I WAS supposed to do this in Painter, but it was getting too annoying, so I switched over to Photoshop. >_> I’m cheating. D8
And I did a few of my own things to create this pic.
I thought the wings would be annoying to make, BUT THEY WERE REALLY FUN.
Goth Moths are pretty. ;A;
And V was the one that showed me the pic for me to draw. SO THANK YOU, V.

You cheater!
Yeah... Painter can be very annoying at times... And Photoshop can be as well to me.
Which of your own things did you do may I ask?

At first glance, I thought this was a photo. What more can I say?
Sprite Killer Says:
This is wonderful :3


I like the amount of detail, and the fact that you chose to draw a moth. They're beautiful
I like the way you've made the end of the branch out of focus, it gives the picture realistic depth. The branches in the corners are also a nice touch.
I don't think I have anything bad to say about this.

No link to the original photo?
I have to say, this is really beautiful, I love love love the detail in the wings, the white blobby bit bugs(geddit, pun?) me a little, and I wish there were indication of a second wing but over all it's really beautiful. The tiny intricate detailing really makes this.
