Hello Henan
This is a very striking and insect, especially the metallic turquoise coloured back. It has a very interesting looking appearance, particularly the long and segmented antennas with the "pom-pom" ball on each. You have captured the features of the eye and the fine hairs on the body and paws with great detail. I also like the glossy look of the body. Thanks for sharing, this beautiful, but weird looking insect. Best regards.
