Description
Just something I was playing around with last night and finished today. Decided to see if I could transfer Mike's (Miko0) cloth painting tutorial to doing some wings. I think they turned out pretty ok. Was fun to try anyway.
Thank you for looking and thank you so much to everyone for all the comments on my past pictures!
