mikechell 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2013 Boy, you really messed that one up, Fred. I think I see one line on the wing that's definitely almost not like the real bug's. Other than that, though, another beautiful mimic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fred H. 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2013 Thank you Henrik and Mike . Henrik the wings were cut out of acetate . The veins were scribed with a needle . Fred Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
netabrookie 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2013 I wouldn't make too many of those if I were you because your tying bench will start to get sticky and sweet when they start producing honey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
