I used fabric paint and a stencil made from a vectorized version of the anime wing for Jessica's jacket. I actually colored the whole thing in and then used rubbing alcohol and some q-tips to rub out the outline. Took forever but it had a really cool gradient effect as a I got lazy near the edges . (hint: if you want to do this do NOT layer on the paint like I did, stick to two layers )

If you want me to upload the vector I used I could do that .

(pics not available yet 'cause my friend has them/none of them are really good because my skirt was fail XD...maybe I'll get a pic of just the jacket - which is unfortunately back at home - sometime or when I go to AI *next* year with a new skirt)

EDIT: Also remember to put something like newspaper in the sleeve/wherever you're painting the wing so the paint doesn't leak to the other side - I almost forgot until my mom reminded me and I'm really glad I did .
