Description

Have been working on this for another web site. The wings still don't look convincing to me so any suggestions on what I can do to make them look more real would be greatly appreciated :D


Michael is an archangel and the angel of Miracles who strengthens the spirit during difficult times or dangerous situations. His name means he who is like God and he is the chief over the dominion order of virtues, angel of repentance, righteousness, ruler of the fourth heaven and conqueror of Satan. It is believed that Michael was the angel that Moses communicated with in the burning bush and that he also saved Daniel from the lion's den. He inspires truth, patience and love in the human heart. In Roman Catholic tradition, Michael is considered to be the patron angel of policemen, guiding and guarding them as they protect us. He is also thought to be the one who gently leads our souls to heaven.

This looks great :)
The wings I think look awesome, but I know what you mean about how they are a tad unrealistic. Feathers tend to have a rounded end, look at a few pics like:

you'd only need to put a few realistic looking feathers through the wings and get rid of some of the "pointy" ended feathers...

Well that's my suggestion anyway, seeing as you asked ;)
