I tried last year to model/animate a butterfly for something I was working on/to learn how to use Blender - found this video as a reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7a7ZAqWBIs …also this previous HN post about butterfly flight is very interesting: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25928796 …+ quite a few previous articles on HN: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=butterfly+wings …awesome bugs that they are! :)
