Hello, Sylvia ...

Macgayver gave a brief answer to your question. However, I too would like to know some more specifics about products and techniques that were used.

All credit for the paint job goes to Rapunzel.

She indeed used window colours.

The wings are made from a transparent thick lamina which i could transform by heating it a bit.




Macgayver?

All the best,
Richard

I overlooked the earlier answer you gave, Michael, but I'm not exactly sure what you meant by window paints.  :-[

Is it some kind of paint used for craftwork? There is a hobby store in town that would probably have it, I guess.

In our area we have this stuff you put on an existing window to give it a stained glass appearance . It is like a static sticker and it is thick and expensive . Is it similar ?
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Those windows colors are mainly used by children (like somehow water colors) to be creative. The mass after dry is about a few millimeters thick (depending on how thick you put on the color) between 2-3 millimeters I suppose. You can paint motives at the window so that the sun shining thru makes the colors shine more brightly. There is also a transparent color available. Depending on the type of colors you used, your masterpiece can be stripped of quite easily if not remaining to long at the window glas (and the sun not burned it at the glass -- in this case it is a quite annoying task to remove hardened and not anymore flexible picture from the glas).
