This is my preserved dragonfly that I staged for a focus-stacking session at 3.5X-magnification using the Mitakon Zhongyi Creator 85mm f/2.8 1-5x Super Macro Lens set at f/8 using constant LED desklamp illumination diffused with vellum tracing paper.

Very good! Just today I received a diffusing screen (Rosco Roscolux 1/4 Tough White Diffusion) from Amazon. It looks like it will be very effective at spreading out the light without losing too much of it. We shall see ...

Thanks, Mark. I use that same product and it works very well for me. It is far more durable than tracing paper and I can even clean it with a damp cloth when it gets soiled from the field. I came across it in my search for diffusing light where I started following how the fellows that shoot video control the harsh studio lights. I believe that you will find it to serve you well also.
