Made a winter-themed dragon thing a month ago and forgot to post it because I forgot it was finished


Decided to answer my own question of "how does a person with wings wear clothes" except without taking the easier route of avian/insect wings for once
I was going to wait to take a better picture (and probably will update with a better picture) hence me not posting earlier, but it was my first time carving a pumpkin two days ago (with two of my friends who also like hk) and I'm pretty proud of it

Uh.
I just found a bug? And have no idea what it is?? ??????
Under readmore because I listed everything I could about it (not including colors which are instead described using actual images)
-Winged/adult insect
-Setaceous antennae same length as body (using below measurement)
-15/16 of an inch (2.5 cm) exactly from head to wingtips
-Four straight wings folded over back, hindwings significantly longer than forewings, forewings are nearly 1/2 an inch (~12mm) while hindwings nearly 3/4 of an inch long (18 or 19 mm). Hindwings curve into a long bottleneck-like shape past the end of the abdomen, stretch 6/7mm past abdomen
-Two black compound eyes less than one mm diameter
-Head 2mm long and about a millimeter and a half wide
-The thorax (or whatever portion visible above the wings, though likely the full length) is just barely noticeably thinner than head and presumably between 2/16 and 6/16ths of an inch (I don't have an underside view so I can't see exactly where it ends) (3mm to 10mm)
-Abdomen roughly between 1.5 cm (9/16 inch) and 1cm (6/16 inch) depending on previous thorax debate, what seems to be a visible black ovipositor half a centimeter long, two tan cerci about a mm and a half long each
-Relatively long, thin mouthparts greatly resembling an Orthopteran's
-Hind legs assumed equal length to hind wings, mid and forelimbs have a tibia and femur of equal length and are about 7mm long total--all legs are smooth rather than serrated
-Wings are opaque but with visible veins
-For clarification, after I got as close as possible to a wingless view the thorax and abdomen are assumed to be equal in length
-This Specific Individual isn’t really moving much except its (her?) antennae unless prompted and hasn’t opened its wings at all.



Conclusion: The insect it most closely resembles is a grasshopper, so it’s probably part of Orthopterida if not simply Orthoptera but I am still left with so many questions
