Hans!
Still again, I see wealth in the method you present, using the same materials (thread + dubbing) as first a rib, then more intensely as the thorax! Keeping it simple with materials and presentation! Though, the detail seen through your photography, carries it through with "spot on" focus and maximizing depth of field for such a close up!
Thanks for all that you share!
