Thank you. And special thanks to Paul Miller, aka Shipwright. First, it was a post when I first started marquetry that he commented on someone else doing "transparency" for wings. They did a great job and he said that creating that effect is really hard to pull off, so that is one thing that has stuck with me for a couple years, trying to come up with a creative way of doing this differently. Plus he told me not to be afraid of making mistakes, and as far as this bee goes I managed not to blunder anything but I had my doubts going in (why I did not take any pictures, I thought this would be a better take 2 type project). But just those pieces of advice have really carried me in this craft and I couldn't thank him enough. 

The next transparent marquetry I work on I will take more detailed pictures and notes of what I am doing and what I find is working well for me. And transparent marquetry is the only good name I seem to have come up with for this technique.
