This was a Super Great Class It was 2 hrs. long and a very "Deep Dive" into the Wings of Quite a Few Birds, Butterflies, and Some Insects. Shelby did a Huge Amount of Research on the ones she drew There was also some printouts with Photos too

Shelby went into detail (she did her research!) on WINGS! We looked at birds, bats, and bugs. It was great! I give it a 4 because it went a little long, but if you watch the replay you can speed it up or skip around to get all the best parts. After this class you will have a cool new understanding of wing anatomy that you can apply to your own artwork. I enjoy the live format for the live Q&A, but the replays are good for being able to pause or hear something repeated.

This class was so informative! It covered bug, bird, and bat wings. I loved how Shelby threw in ideas for how to apply the wing drawing to fantasy art too! I really enjoy how thorough these classes are. You can tell Shelby did hours of research for it which is so helpful. I definitely recommend giving it a watch!

Shelby is fantastic! This was an amazing class. Detailed comparative anatomy between winged creatures and how to make it work for dragons/mythical creatures. This class had everything needed to draw wings!

A ton of great info. Full of good advice on how to draw various wings in different positions and of different creatures. But would have loved images early enough to print out in decent sizes to follow along with Shelby. Her down- to- Earth nature is most welcoming. And I appreciate her researching the subject before hand (very impressive).
