Some still images of my recent commission! So happy with it. It was a very delicate job.

The green birdwing butterfly is found in Australia. While the male sports colors of velvet black, green, blue, gold, and a tuft of red hair, the females are brown with white spots.
Lepidopterans from the Edinburgh Journal of Natural History and of the Physical Sciences, Vol. 1 (1835-1839).
"Lepidopterans" includes both moths and butterflies. The moth in the bottom middle is the lovely Madagascan sunset moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus), which was once classified as a butterfly. The butterfly in the middle is the male common green birdwing (Ornithoptera priamus). This species exhibits sexual dimorphism in which the female is larger than the male and has brown and white coloring.
