Ant with a seed in its mouth, artwork by me, reference second pic

Hello! I tried drawing a request by a comment made by u/mennotie they wanted the ant to hold a seed. Sorry for the inaccuracies in color because i have limited 36 colors. Its a small drawing too so i struggled a bit. Also its my second time drawing an ant so please be nice. I'm not exactly an expert, i just wanted to draw ants on my sketchbook. Critique is welcome just don't be mean please 🥺

The ant is messor barbarus please tell me i got the correct ant because i just googled the reference and went to a website called fourmiculture. Apparently they were selling them(?)

if its wonky im sorry im not very good with color pencils or drawing ants😔
