He does look like a knight!

The texture of the leaf is interesting. hopper seems a teeny bit soft.

Insects do look cool when they look plated like this little guy. He looks like one of those very little hoppers I am seeing in my area also..about .250" or less maybe.

Cute little guy. Reminds me of some of those things you see on Star Wars.

Cool marbling efect in the eyes. Man, that plant has got to make for some rough eatin'

The plant is a bit rough and shiny. I held back on the sharpening simply because it made the shiny part of the leaf even more pronounced.
