The Bug is Done

I decided the lantern bug was dried enough today, and took off the pins and strips of paper.  The shadowbox was already prepared, so all I had to do was pin the insect in.  It's about three inches long; the wingspan is close to six.
I would now love to see one in its natural habitat.
