I made this charm for my mom's birthday last year (her birthday is late in the year so not too long ago). I am very happy with the way this turned out for a first time making a piece like this! I have to say it was pretty fun too. 
Guess what I used to make it? Done guessing? If so check the bottom of this post.
The one thing I don't like about this image is the coin's color but it is just a size reference so I don't care too much. Any tips on how to make this or future images like it better? I already use natural lighting. I'd also love some tips on making charms too because I'd like to make more of them.
Thanks for looking,

Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactWords cannot describe how amazing this piece is. More importantly, words cannot describe how unique this piece is. Lost Hope, I have only seen ONE other person make dragon fly pieces, and they were on Listia. The problem is for wings they used a small metal wing bead. But you went the extra mile and made wings, and it looks so great this way. I do wish there wasn't as much metal exposed but that's a small detail and this whole thing just looks amazing. Especially the colors. And further more you said this was your first time making this. FIRST TIME! This looks professional grade. I can't imagine how amazing you'll be after years of practice, if you should make these more often. I would more than likely buy one of these if I saw them at the store.
