I do it the stupid-i'm-lucky-if-I-don't-screw-this-up way. The best way to do it in a program like Gimp or Photoshop is to draw that section of wing you want blurred on a seperate layer, get all the shading done, merge all those layers together, and then duplicate it, use gaussian blur on the duplicate, maybe a motion blur on a second copy, and then viola!
The way I do it in Sai (I don't recommend this at all unless you're lazy like I am) is to basically do it the same way as above, only because Sai doesn't have a blur tool take the water tool and go around the edges to manually blur it yourself. It takes a bit of practice, and always do it on a copy and save the original just in case you mess it up, but it's fairly easy. I also lowered the opacity just a bit so you could see through the wing tips a smidge, to add to the illusion.
Hope this helps!
