Description
I wanted to do something like this for some time now and finally got round to doing it... (though I am currently not supposed to paint or draw because of a tendon sheath inflammation and the doctor would probably hit me if he knew IΒ΄m ignoring his ordersAs the title says this is supposed to be a kind of reference sheet for bird wings...I tried to find images representing different poses and angles at which the wings are shown so that I have a better idea what a wing looks like next time I want to draw one. I might do a second part to this with more drawings when IΒ΄m allowed to draw again.

Beautiful! I might actually reference this (along with actual photos) for some of my sculptures if that's okay. I'm trying to learn how to sculpt bird wings.

Of course you can use this as reference, I had hoped it might help others as well. IΒ΄d love to see the results.
Sculpting bird wings sounds difficult...I made a griffin from clay once and the wings gave me some trouble because they would not keep up like I wanted them to...at the end I made them folded to the body.

Wise decision...but as you only got one day of school off I guess that was bound to fail?

If IΒ΄m not mistaken advil is some sort of painkiller, right? If it is, taking lots of it is exactly what IΒ΄m going to do...

Yes, it's also an anti-inflammatory. I hope you get better soon!
