I noticed as I did this that quite a few fairies are 'mash ups' of others, so some of them could be made from bits of others. For example, I discovered at the 11th hour that I had not included this one
But I managed to make her with parts from 5 other fairies (hair, wings, head, torso+ arms, skirt). Her head was from that red Quick fairy you admire Tiermann, not a face print (pink cheeks, eyebrows, 2 eyelashes at the sides) I have seen elsewhere.
Tiersammler from Klickywelt sent me a message* with a couple of suggestions for more fairies. I think
this one, the 'Wise Fairy' from the Super4 set 9410 due in May this year should be included. I think the definition of 'fairy' is down to personal choice and cultural influences. So whether they
must have wings or whether to include 'elves' (Tolkien's elves don't have wings, Pratchett's do) is a personal decision. I will probably stick to collecting just the winged ones from now on.
*which goes to show that PM fans who are not members of PF do visit and read the posts here!
