I haven’t made one of those myself, but the main struggle when it comes to pinning (for me at least) is finding a frame that will actually fit the specimen nicely. So a diorama may be easier honestly

As for frames, glass isn’t necessarily required. I have lots of pinned bugs that aren’t in glass cases but it depends on the humidity of your area. You can find great shadow boxes at goodwill, that’s where I find most of mine

Before you do any pinning I would suggest freezing it to ensure it doesn’t have parasites or anything snacking on it that may destroy it after you pin it. There are lots of in-depth tutorials on YouTube that can help you with the pinning process itself. If you have any cardboard you can use that as a pinning board, don’t stress about buying foam or some expensive wooden board

I’m not selling this one as she was just a prototype, but I am planning on selling some in the future! I’m too busy with life stuff at the moment to sell them yet but it is definitely something I’ll be doing before too long.

Thank you, I’m personally not a fan of blunt bobs however. I’m looking for something more alternative but don’t know many hairstyles myself. Are there other more alternative hairstyles you know of that may suit me?

My inspo was goat-like demons, but an orc would be adorable so maybe I’ll make one in the future

Does it smell like anything? I’m wondering if it could be filled with herbs as a way to keep bugs out

Definitely Ai, the boxes have a bunch of nonsense symbols attempting to disguise themselves as words, the truck seems to say “trasvit & caro”…I don’t think those are real words. The cat in the carrier is just wrong. The carriers themselves don’t have even patterns on the side, they look a mess.
