For sure I'll consider crowdfunding; I'll keep you posted... thanks for the advice!

Thank you, I really appreciate that! It’s very encouraging to hear there’s interest; perhaps it’s time to seriously consider making it real!

Thank you for asking! at the moment it’s a personal portfolio project, not a published book. But I would really love to develop it into a real illustrated arthropod guide.
