Amazing!
The panel is 7" x 10 3/8â, and the wingspan averages around 15". Theyâre badass, like Jurassic Park.
I mixed the epoxy in a regular plastic cup and notched a little fold for pouring onto the wings. I started in the middle and then spread outward to the edges with a small plastic scraper to fill the tiny cells at the outer edge. PRO TIP: I covered the back with wide clear packing tape to keep the epoxy from leaking out of each individual cell. I removed the tape after a couple days of curing. Worked great. Generally the same technique for the bodies although I didnât want to get colored epoxy on the wood so I used a tiny squeeze bottle for those. As it hardens, the epoxy will shrink down a bit but you definitely donât want to overfill.
Theyâre gorgeous!
Very nice and from the looks of it, a lot of work.
I love dragonflies. Those are amazing! They all look lovely, canât decide on a favorite.
Eastern Amberwing! I love Frank Loyd Wright too! Theyâre all so beautiful!! So I know you said the cells are filled with the post, but are the wings cut from wood too?
Ah! Neat! Thank you for the detailed explanation.
Yes, medium birch
Theyâre all such beautiful pieces of artwork! The wings look like metal to me with the epoxy technique you used!
Truly lovely! I think the Autumn Meadowhawk is my favorite.
