Description
Now, I'm not a proffesional artist, but I think I've found a simple method when it comes to drawing feathered wings. There are lots of variations on the technique, but the basis is quite simple. The main variation for me comes from altering the feather shape and regularity to suggest characteristics like hardness and stiffness, and you can alter the feather shape for fancier stuff.And it doesn't take too long, either. The wing I drew here took me roughly 20 something minutes, plus scanning time in between steps.
This is the method I used in my angel drawing [link]

Keep at it. I only started drawing seriously a few years ago, and my drawing experience before that was limited to art lessons back in primary school.

I've always sucked at drawing wings. It's really great for artists to share ideas and styles with other artists. I always love it when people really show that dA is a community.

Haha.. Yeah, I think that would be a bit awkward. Anyway, this is just pretty basic stuff cause' I can't do anything too complicated.
