Okay, so at Anthrocon this year myself, Vantid and Rah-Bop are hosting a panel on the anatomy of wings and how to draw them. We are focusing on avian wings but we also plan to touch on leathery wings (e.g. bat/dragon/pterosaurs).
We have reserved a projector and as such hope to not only talk about wings and show diagrams and images of them, but do live drawing demos and even have some short movie clips to study.
Attendees are encouraged to sketch, take notes, photograph and otherwise have fun. We're going to try and keep this accurate but not too stuffy. Hopefully I'll refrain from talking about french fries again.
I also plan to bring reference material -- I will have real bird wings with me for people to look at, draw, photograph and otherwise touch and examine.

Additionally, I hope to bring print-outs with useful diagrams, info, and website info on them.
I am trying to get an estimate of how many people will be there so I know how much material to bring to hand out. I'd feel silly paying to have 50 copies run if only 8 people plan on coming!

Right now we are scheduled for 9pm-11pm Saturday July 4th. Unfortunately, this places our panel at the same exact time as the 4th of July fireworks display over the three rivers, AND 2 the Ranting Gryphon's show, which I know is very popular. I am resigned that our turn out might not be very good. But, if anyone DOES plan on attending our wing panel, please DO comment here so that I have an idea of how much stuff to bring!!

(Sorry if this shows up twice for you! Devart had an aneurysm when I tried to post it...)

I work with Corel Painter X for my digital art and use a Wacom Intuos tablet. I am about 90% self-taught (thank you goes to my middle and high school art teachers for teaching me the important basics of art). I draw inspiration mostly from the natural world around me, but also from music and other people!</sub>
