Description
I decided to try something new (for me). This idea is - of course - not new but it is the first time I did something like that.It is an old butterfly and a dome which has not the highest quality of glass. I decided to use bones as the base of the butterfly and I really hope those things will stay like that.
I will not keep this project but give it - if she likes it - to a friend of mine so that I don't have to ship it.
Anyway, I will do more of those I guess and some might be for sale. A better way to display the butterflies and - which is a huge plus - you can see the backside.

Sieht super aus! Ist auch praktisch das diese Kuppelgläser momentan total der Trend sind, nur das da heute kaum einer ein Präparat oder so drunter stellt X3
Das ist eine super tolle Idee für meine Libelle.

Bei Ebay kriegt man die für so... 10-25€ in der Größe.
Leider bräuchte ich noch zwei richtig große. Für meine Dohle und meinen Widehopf.

Das ist ein guter Preis. Weiß nicht mehr wie teuer die bei Strauß waren, denke aber auch so.

Very pretty c: I recently did something of similar but quite different. It was a realistic, terrarium-like display dome featuring a pair of African cetoniinae beetles. I'm very proud of it but I could've positioned the beetles' legs a bit better so they looked more lifelike. I might upload photos of it soon if I can get some good quality ones.

I have some pictures of it but they're really awful quality and don't show it off that well. Do you have an email you use regularly? I could email the pics to you c:

I can remember seeing a similiar thing like you
It was a lot of fun although it was a delicate work. Currently I am waiting for 3 more domes to arrive so that I can work with some more butterflies :3
