Ha I think I already posted this a while back. It didn't get many comments, but I think they're amazing. I wish they were for sale..

I noticed those while looking for a particular species (D. lobata I think...) and I was blown away. I do some wire work and those blew me away. There is also a steampunk wire artist that does these, and I think they are for sale. I may have to try my hand at something like this at some point.
