This was done for Susie's challenge seen here. This was watercolored with mostly translucent colors except the gansai tambi colors turned out to be more on the opaque side. ( first time getting those wet) and so, that was how her wings were done. I did end up adding some pencils for shading over the top of the watercolor after it was dry. There is a layer of foam tape in between the watercolor panel and a second piece of plain card stock I cut with the same die to line the back of it to give it a little more stability since this is a gate fold and only glued on the left panel flap.
