Description
8D Wings~! This first side took me three hours, but it's totally worth every feather and every scrap of energy I gave from 9:22pm-1:57am. My inspiration for this was from Jake-of-Spades, an art student that posted his Icarus wings on DA.@Jake-of-Spades-Thank you for being awesome~! ^^

Artist's Notes:
I've always loved papercrafts, just never really had the charce to think things through...my first papercraft I posted on DA is a set of miniscule layered wings that I gave to my cousin for his birthday present. I guess I'm better at making wings than flowers and better at drawing flowers than wings. ^_^;
I'll most likely be wearing these for Christmas caroling at my school the day before break, no promises, but look out for a photoshoot sometime before then~

Try either pins or if you have any Velcro strips.

They're on cardboard...>.> I'll probably try the velcro first, if worst comes to worst, I'll sew them...thanks for the idea~^^

Every time I attempt something like this, I lose patience, so I stick with origami. 8D
