Sketch the wing’s main shape with a light curved line for the top edge and a longer curved line for the bottom edge
Mark the shoulder or base where the wing attaches to the body
Divide the wing into sections for the upper arm, forearm, and hand area
Add the primary feather structure with long tapered shapes at the outer edge
Draw the secondary feathers closer to the body with shorter overlapping shapes
Layer the feathers so each row overlaps the one below it
Vary feather lengths to create a natural flow
Add smaller feathers near the base and larger feathers toward the tip
Refine the outer silhouette of the wing
Erase construction lines and clean up the edges
Add shading under overlapping feathers and along the base
Darken the deepest overlaps and the underside for depth
Add highlights on the upper surfaces of feathers
Repeat the same process for the other wing if needed
Adjust symmetry, angle, and proportion to match the pose
