late Halloween costume progress - pt 3

Painted last night :D

The references got a bit jumbled up, so the upper wings are far from perfect.

Aside from that, I really like these wings. Later today I plan on painting the other side and assembling them properly

PART TWO:

[ekster--exotic]

late Halloween costume progress - pt 2

Today I finished the wire outlines for all four wings, and attached the fabric

There are a lot of things I don’t like about these, but all things considered, they’re not that bad :D

(hopefully they’ll look better once properly positioned and painted)

Tomorrow I’ll be crunching to paint all four, then add shoulder straps and bring em together
