I was bored. This is my first "fairie" type picture. Heather, with fine Irish/Scottish feature are very elvish, so I thought a couple wings would look nice. Unfortunately the perspective tool is not working in the version of GIMP I'm running, so I couldn't make the wings look less flat. I got the butterfly wings from Photo.net. My other minor nits and notes are, the shadow on the ground is all wrong, but looks more dramatic than an accurate shadow. The shadow on the wing should be sharper, but then hand jitters would be more obvious. And my one nod to accuracy, I place the wings in the mid back, so the muscles for wings would have room below the shoulder blades, and it gives better weight balance. I was bored.
