Insect models at Bigger Nature
Welcome to Bigger Nature, a website dedicated to providing high-quality reproductions of insects! This website addresses itself to natural history museums, nature reserve centres and all those numerous organisations whose exhibitions endeavour to give their visitors an understanding of this fascinating macrocosm with all its many facets.
Entomological model-making
Innovative techniques such as stereoscopic prints of an insect or the layering of digital stereoscopic images enable an unequalled quality in the entomological model.

Current projects - mason wasp
My latest modelling project is based on the Heath Potter Wasp (Eumenes coarctatus), a most fascinating local
mason wasp that lives as a solitary predator.
In addition to this beautiful insect with its striking, contrasting patterns, I would like to show its artistic,
vase-shaped mud nest that houses the brood of this so-called “oldest potter in the world”.
