Illustrator take one

So this is my first attempt using adobe illustrator. It's no where near completion (as you can still see my rough sketch in the background) but I thought it was kind of fun. For my digital illustration class we need to create 3 bugs on illustrator. My friend Jen is helping me a lot with that pen tool, so I'm starting to understand how to make a circle instead of just a bunch of random out of control shapes. I still need to add the eyes, antennas, and shading, and fix up the shape a bit, but I'm proud of what I have so far!
