i used a different concept to develop the body and wings. the body was 2d ellipse and the wings were made from bezier curve. however, there's still some work to be done on that.

Hey. Inspired by your work, I make a butterfly in flight simulation Interspersed throughout a small path can best serve you something. Thanks for the motivation.
