Thank you Aaron, Eric and Shinpachi. I tried to use a little of the 3D techniques I learned in skinning and the shadow and highlight effects in drawing. I wasn't sure how the broken pieces would look, it was trial and error to get the look I wanted.
Thanks VB greatly appreciated. It was such a nice day today, I decided to go out into the yard and try some Macro shots. I found a bunch of bees and flies around one of my bushes, so I thought I would give it a shot Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks guys I'm glad you liked them, it was a little challenging using manual focus and no stabilization, hand held. VB the lens was a Canon 100mm Macro lens.
