"Faeries Wear Wings" Topic

of course!

And the ones in this conversion project are barefoot, so no boots.

Yes!!
That is fabulous, and a great technique to keep in mind
(especially to trick out my Slaaneshi Jump Troops!)

That's just amazing. Hysterical, and amazing. I really hope I get a chance to steal this idea.

Nice work!

Very nicely done.

Any chance of a link to the cutter.

And this could be great with a few layers cut and stacked.

Get some transparency sheets and color them in for the main color for the wings and then some of paper to sandwich it in the more detailed cuts in order to have some interesting looks.

Use a few beads and wire for a body and you can have some giant butterflies as well

Thanks all.

The paper punch I have is EK brand, and I bought it at Joann Fabrics. This one at Amazon is the same thing, same brand, but it looks different probably because you can't go back to ten years ago and buy the old design.

The 40K space marines did have layered pink and purple paper using different resolutions of pattern. For the faeries, I just drew lines on the solid one using fancy orange red scrapbooking paper.

So a Fairy Wing Paper Punch is a thing, eh? Who'd a thunk it!

I believe, technically, the intent is for making paper butterflies to go on scrapbook pages. :)

While I agree that the finished item looks rather good, can we go back to the whole barefoot faeries thing. Not having boots sounds like heresy… are you a secret heretic? In your heart of hearts do you not believe in the good and true word?

Well, the guys in the third picture down had boots on … does that get me off the heresy charge?

That last shot ion your page of the soldiers confronitng the fairy halflings reminds me of the documentary "In the Realms of the Unreal" about the reclusive New York artist Henry Darger. I thought to film was suitably weird.
