Silver Veined Fayette 'Water Lily' Fairy Wings & More, Ready to Ship

I'm having a very small sale this Saturday, Sept 21 at 11 am Pacific Daylight Time and these Fayette fairy wings in the Water Lily colorway will be available ready-to-ship, this time with silver veins.

Large 'Fayette' large iridescent blue and green fairy wings with 3 panels on each side, pink dots near the upper panel tips, & silver veins, worn on a dress form, front view

I'm having a batch of wing frames powder coated in gold, but there was a delay in the shipment of the powder so this will be a smaller sale than I originally intended and I'll have some gold veined wings in the next one.
I’ll have a repeat set of the Nightshade wings in Blush, and a repeat set of the painted Fayette wings in Poison Plum with black veins. I was trying to squeeze in another set of wings, Cosette with silver veins, but not sure I’ll have them done in time, I may have to wait for the next sale to list them.

Fairy Wing Overlays
I've also added all my digital overlays to my Patreon shop!
Now anyone can purchase them without a monthly subscription here: https://www.patreon.com/faeryangela/shop

People living in the EU can now purchase them again, since Patreon is handling all the taxes for me, which was the reason I had to pull them from my website. I simply don't have the spoons to fill out tax forms for overseas purchases of products under $10.

I've also discounted them, AND, if you're subscribed to the $4 Extra Fancy tier or higher you will actually get ALL of the overlay sets. How's that for a good deal?
I know Etsy and other marketplaces are over saturated now with AI generated overlays being sold for dirt cheap, but you can rest assured these are all my original designs and made from my photos and graphics.

My wing overlays also come with various poses unlike the AI generated ones you might see, which are almost always going to be flat front view wings. But models are photographed (or painted) from many different angles and you'll need wings at various angles to look realistic.
One thing that drives me nuts about generated images - which is also a pretty good tell that it's generated - is having a fairy turned to the side but their wings are completely flat & not following their body position.

Make sure to read the Terms of Use included with the overlays, this is important! 
It's a restricted license, so there will be some things you need to do, and some things you must not do with them. The Terms of Use is inside the folder with the overlays, make sure you keep them together in case you need to refer back to it.

I also had made a mistake in the Terms of Use for the oldest overlays sold on my website the last few years, they did not get updated with the new copy that was included with the Clarion and Luna Moth overlays specifying credit required in caption text and other details. This info was in all the listings descriptions, but should have been in the text file included with purchase. I’ve updated them all and if you’d purchased overlays in the past you should have gotten an email with an updated link by now. Check your spam folders if you haven’t seen it yet.

I’ll eventually discount the overlays on my website as well since I can’t compete with the pricing of all those AI overlays, but in the meantime feel free to spread the word and share my Patreon Shop link with friends in need of digital wings.

Remember, the sale won't start and the listings won't show up until tomorrow, Saturday Sept. 21 at 11 am PDT here: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/collections/flash-sales

Thank you for all your support, and have a fairy-tastic weekend!

Infringement is NOT hot, Paris Hilton.

*Update: As of February 2023, the legal issue between Paris Hilton and myself has been privately resolved

How cheap does someone have to be, to find a listing for digital wing overlays and cut & copy the wings out from the preview image rather than buy them for a measly $6.99??

I got a message yesterday linking to an Instagram post from Paris Hilton, asking "are these your wings?" Yes, yes they are, and what is especially disappointing is it appears my wing image was cut from the listing graphic.

The listing is here: https://fancy-fairy-wings-things.myshopify.com/products/titania-fairy-wings-transparency-stock-png-files

That's right - rather than buy the legit files they happened upon, it appears this person instead copied the green wings out of my graphic, infringing on my intellectual property and violating my copyright.
I expect this is what they did because you can still see the edges of the yellow wings that are behind the green ones in my listing graphic and they included the wings in back on each side, which are in exactly the same position as in the graphic.

The files do not come that way.

I've sent a DMCA to Paris' merch store email, I've commented on the post as well as tweet at her and lots of other people have commented on this as well with no response.

Looks like another artist, Indg0 may have also been infringed in this image!

It's their background used here, without permission or payment according to Indg0.

I'm gonna need to see some order receipts if I'm wrong - and credit on the post - because there are no digital wing orders from her or anyone tagged in the post, which can be seen here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CE7-zZqHIG0/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

This is not the first celebrity infringement and I'm sure it sadly won't be the last as long as entitled wealthy celebs assume they can take whatever they want from indie artists due to their privilege and power. Paris Hilton's image is shown here in Fair Use, for the purposes of criticism, public commentary and communicating important news to the public about a public figure.

Oh and also? Just read today that she’s been heaping some praise on Trump, saying:
”He’s a very nice man. I think on TV people like to say things about certain people, but he’s actually a very sweet person. I like him a lot.”
GROSS.
She’s got an awful history of racist behavior as well, but somehow is still famous for being an heiress and the world’s first influencer.
