Here's another speared mantis. Not sure what to do with these yet. Working title is the new glorious dead. You can see this one and the other in progress at this post.
New Piece
I've been working on this for quite awhile. The hardest part was to find a way to spear the mantis without tearing it apart. This is maybe the fourth try? I had a bunch of preserved ones that each time I tried pierce just tore apart. This one I found as it died and as a result was soft enough to work.
