This contest is obviously about butterfly wings so:

-You can draw anything you want (OCs, fanart characters, furries, real people, abstracs, objects) whatever you like as long as it has butterfly wings.
-BUT!!!! The butterfly wings you draw must exist, I mean you cannot be creative about that. The wings you draw must be of an existing species of butterfly such as Monarch, Old Worl Swallowtail, Buckeye, Chrysiridia etc...

-You have to provide the common and the scientific name of the butterfly you use like
Old Worl Swallowtail.........(Papilio Machaon)
Monarch...........(Danaus Plexippus)
Buckeye.........(Junonia coenia)
.......
......etc

prize: a request or if you prefer handmade porcelain paste charm

deadline: October 2010
