YAY! Armor: DONE! I'm quite satisfied with how it has turned out. The wings especially.
I was confused, at first, with how I should've gone about making them. I made large left wing by cutting out the pieces in between the veins on the tag board, and then placing it on the vellum paper and tracing/cutting it out with an Exacto knife. Then, I taped it to the space where I cut out on the tag board. I did this one piece at a time. This was a laborious process and I wanted to find a different way to do it with the next wing. So, the process of the right wing was that I cut out all the peices between the veins on the tag board. I placed the tag board on the vellum paper and traced on the inside of the pieces. This proved to be much faster than what I had originally done. The underwings I had made pure gold so I did the same process I did with the right wing.
We bought the red shirt at a dollar general and I painted it at home. I painted the little honeycomb in class, which was a lot fun. It was like a little mini project, but I will admit that painting was a bit of a distraction. Nonetheless, I got it done with my armor and I'm happy with it.
The wings are incredible! The front of the shirt is so cool too and reminds me of the work of another artist I know! :) Awesome job Anna!
