"Butterfly Faerie"

Wow this is old.... this sketch represents the very first attempt to illustrate a faery. Obviously I used butterflies for my influence on the wings, since they are the closest thing we have to faeries. Looking back on this concept, I would definately re-design the wings, giving them more individual sections and adding a little more variation in the length of those different sections. All in all, this wasn't a bad concept... it just could be done better now. But that is what designing is all about!
