Scythe Iridescent Painted Fairy Wings with Black Veins, Ready to Ship

A design from the 2016 Summer Platinum Edition, the Scythe fairy wings are back in convertible form! They measure roughly 39 and a half inches wide, layered with antennae. Based loosely on a fantasy version of Goliath beetle wings, these are perfect for unseelie or gothic fairies. They can be easily posed by gently bending the panels at the angle you wish.

These were digitally hand painted in purple & black colors with a touch of blood red, on the Opal iridescent film which gives it some blue & violet shine. The veining is black.

The frame is constructed of a .040" thick cut aluminum sheet that has been painted in black for the veins, and will be laminated with an iridescent film of your choice and clear vinyl.  

*Simple assembly required
Panels attach with included standard screw bolts and nuts. The upper screw is finished on the outer side with a domed acorn nut, which looks like a flower stamen if flowers are attached to hide the hardware. 
I will leave the flowers up to the customer for the meantime, so you can match your outfit. I just use faux flowers torn off from the plastic stem & punched an 1/8" hole to go over the screw. Then, screw the acorn cap on. 
The photo of only the brace shows the latest brace shape in black that comes with the wings that now has a thicker bar across the bottom for better support and will match your wing's vein color. The last closeup shows an example of the older version back brace on the back of a different set of wings so you can see how it would attach with ribbon or elastic as well as how you can decorate it with faux flowers.

You can wear your wings in resting position by removing the bottom screw if you find yourself in a packed crowd. I suggest removing it while the wings are off due to the small parts - a magnet may be helpful for catching the bolt after removal and a small wrench and / or screw driver may come in handy.

Alternatively they can now be assembled with included rubber washers to make them fully adjustable - just grab the panel you want to move and rotate it into position, no un-screwing needed!!

The wing panels can be removed for easy transport, or to change up the look by removing or swapping the antennae, upper panel, and lower panels.

They can be worn either by tucking them into the back of any very snug & sturdy bodice or corset, or by attaching your own ribbon or elastic by slipping it through the slots on the back brace.
You can see a photo of the new back brace with a thicker bar across the bottom, as well as how the faux flowers and ribbon straps would be attached on the last two photos from a different earlier set of wings.
Unfortunately due to the pandemic, I've had issues accessing the clear elastic they used to come with, however since I've increased the detail and therefore the weight slightly you may want to use something stronger than clear elastic anyway.

The frame is constructed of a .040" thick cut aluminum sheet that has been powder coated, and laminated with an iridescent film and clear vinyl. 

All orders are shipped via USPS priority mail with insurance, and *normally* take 2 to 3 days to arrive once shipped unless Express shipping is purchased. International orders are shipped USPS International Priority Express.
However, USPS has been having very odd delays and if I find it's still a problem I may ship via UPS instead if their shipping times are proving to be faster.
Though these might arrive in time for Halloween weekend in the US, I can't guarantee it due to the carrier delays.
