How To Draw Angel Wings
In this drawing tutorial, which can be used as a basis for either a simple line cartoon or a full detailed pencil drawing, you will learn How To Draw Angel Wings. As with most of my cartoons and drawings I like to keep things as simple as possible - any drawing or cartoon should be started with simple easily repeatable shapes and forms, with the detail being added later. No matter if I am creating a small cartoon character or a large portrait, I always start with simple shapes drawn lightly in pencil.
How To Draw Angel Wings - Step by Step
Angel wings are normally seen as huge feathered white wings sprouting from somewhere around the back of the shoulders. If you have ever seen the movie Dogma, this is the look I will be trying to create here. In the first drawing below I have sketched in pencil what looks like an arm, but the hand at the end is being extended flat, pointing to the right.

Next I added a large curve over the "hand" area to create the large boney curve we see at the final joint in real wings. I then started to add individual feathers, small at first along the underside of the wing, larger the nearer to the long end of the wing.
Angel Wings - Final Details
Finally in the lst two drawings I continues adding more feathers, overlapping to make them less even and more natural looking, and added an outline for the angel character themselves. You can see that the wing itself is attached to the body somewhere behind the shoulder.
