I had a client recently ask me to make a steampunk mechanical bee for her and gave me a photo of a tattoo for reference. This is the result. The wings were a problem as I wanted them light. I ended up cutting down two brass pendant bases and filling them with UV resin. They then had to be sanded back to the brass and finally polished. I was aiming on transparent but the frosting works. Her body is an old brass electrical terminal cut to fit. Her wire legs are threaded through the body for security. The crimps are for effect and to stop the feet scratching if worn as a pendant.

She also contains an assortment of gears, pinions, screws, bolts, rivets, an electrical probe is her "stinger" and her wire antenna do rotate. I hope the client likes her but if not I'll try again. I've already had interest so she will sell either way.

#thank you dm!
