Hammond's Cane


 This is a member of the insect family Tipulidae, of the order Diptera. Commonly called a 'Crane Fly'. More importantly, this is the insect used as a prehistoric mosquito trapped in amber atop John Hammond's cane in Jurassic Park. It's my intention to recreate JUST the mosquito trapped in amber. (I think the rest of the cane looks stupid)

This one shouldn't take too long. It's organic and I don't need to get too detailed with the fly since it's so obscured by amber.
