Ok I finally got up enough nerve to try my hand at fantasy film wings. My hat is off to all of you who make the wings for customs. They are TINY!! I'm not sure I'm cut out for making things in miniature after all ;D Finally here is what I did for a diorama that needed an overall. I had tried to paint the backdrop and it didn't look good. So I cut out these pets and decoupaged them onto the background. It's very pretty when lit up. I figured this can be used to display special pets.

You're wings looks FANTASTIC!! I think you did a perfect job!! Have you gotten any microbeads to sprinkle on them? They are used for scrapbooking but I had to get them off ebay....it is a nice finishing touch!

The wings look great! Look like they would be very fidgety. I love the diorama as well, such a great idea.

I think your wings are perfect. I'm too intimidated to try to make my own. I bought a pair of wings on ebay, months ago. I have yet to use them. They were larger than I expected. Your wings look great and will look perfect on a LPS pet. The diorama is cool. I like it!

Thanks everyone! Dana, I took your advice and added glitter because I didn't have the microbeads. Here is the finished product:

The kitty with the wings is just so beautiful! The wings alone were amazing but together it's the perfect match
