So now I need to form the wires, insert them into the wings, and stuff the edges. That alone will take days. The wings will get a 'claw' at the upper joint, and those need to be made of Apoxy and attached before I can start painting. So, a LOT still left to do.
I've started work on the wings for the Dark Fairies. I drew up three different dragon wing designs, and chose a light colour to match each of the three colour combinations, since it's easy to add darker colours to light fabric, but it doesn't work as well to add light colour to dark fabrics. Personally, I had thought I'd be finished the wings this week, but everything always goes slower than expected. So, what else is new?? I should be used to that by now.

I love the sound of your plans but have no idea how you will make them come to fruition! Good luck and have fun......and I know they will look fabulous when finished!
