I Give Insects The Defense Mechanisms They So Desperately Need To Survive The Modern World (14 Pics)
With titles such as 'Body Armour,' 'Self Defense' and 'Camouflage,' I give insects the defense mechanisms they so desperately need.
It is my intention to raise awareness about the population decline that insects are currently undergoing. They are so important to our ecosystems and their decline is something that puts all of us at risk.

I think they are tiny sea shells. If not, the amount of detail and shading is extremely realistic.

How do you know they were killed, with butterflies' short life for example, I think one could find them, the others I do not know !!!

These all look BEAUTIFUL! How long did it take you to make one? I love your art style with these ^^

Thank you! It just depends because they are all so different. The crystallized ones take the longest.

None of this armor protects against pesticides, does it? So where does the modern world protection come in?

Josh, mostly as if I appreciate good art, especially as I have no talent in art, other than my photography of anything in nature, I am an amateur not published but am very proud of some photos, also in other posts such as animals I comment often, love to give my two cents !!!

You don't need an excuse to make things. Also insects will outlive humans by a fair bit, they are really resilient. Also your work is beautiful. :)

She doesn’t kill them. Every year they emerge and then all die after a day.
