So I started this for the Tektek avatar drawing contest but, unfortunately, I never got around to finishing it. Now that I've looked back over it, I've realized that I really like it and am now DETERMINED to complete it. I'm just having some trouble trying to get a good texture and shading for the wings so that they don't look so plain and boring -__- If anyone has any suggestions or ideas, it would be greatly appreciated (:

-----------------------------------------------
Notes: I've been doing this in Photoshop but I can import it into Illustrator if anyone has a suggestion for that program. I've been using the Burn and Dodge tools mostly to get a good shading pattern in the wings but none of them have been working very well (ps I've used several brushes with a feathery "texture" but they haven't been of much use either.)
