I actually use a regular old 5MP Canon Powershot A95. Really it's pretty easy to get them to turn out like that. A couple of keys.

 

Shoot the pics using daylight if possible, but a light box isn't necessary.

Put your camera on a tripod

Set the timer to 2 seconds, and make sure you aren't touching anything when you shoot the picture.

turn OFF the flash

turn ON the macro feature.

get the camera as close as you can without zooming in at all.

 

I thin kmy camera starts to focus at 6cm.

 

If you can't get it close enough, just shoot it in focus and then zoom it a bit on the computer.

Love the name, BTW. :-)

It's actually a plastic latex glove cut up, and then colored with markers.

Of course. Ingenious. I love the coloring!
