It has reached a new level... that is the nicest completed bug model that I have ever seen. I always wondered who took possesion of the shrink-ray when they were done filming "Honey I Shrunk the Kids".

NOT meant to be criticism in any way, your talent is just FABULOUS! But does the antenna look a little too fat?
FANTASTIC model skills as well as photography skills!
Whats next?

Antenna is telescopic, which means the top part is thinner than the bottom part.

It's hard to tell really- i do not count hours when i'm having fun. 
I estimate it at about 200.
