My daughter had this small tiny fairy with wings that were attached with a strip of elastic. She managed to tear the wings right down the middle. Above is a picture of what that looked like, with a quarter for scale. (You can see a line running down the middle of the wings where she tore it).
I turned the photo black and white using GIMP then traced the outline and the "veins" in Inkscape, and used the linear extrude function of OpenSCAD to create a thin set of wings with raised "veins." I scaled the wings in OpenSCAD until the image of the quarter matched the measurements for a quarter (24.26 mm). Once printed, a new strip of elastic put the wings back in place.
Since this contest entry is really a collection of entries, I've uploaded the STL and OpenSCAD files to Thingiverse here.
