Post subject:  Making wings

So I'm currently working on two SHS customs that require wings. Not Hawkman style wings but rather attached to the arms wings.
I'm doing Vulture and the Falcon. They both share the same style of wings so what works with one will work for the other.

Anyone have any advice on making the wings?

Taliesn Crow is the one to ask, i am pretty sure he did a SHS custom by glueing the wings to the underside of the arms. I hope that helps. :-/

If you can find the Toy Biz Death Bird, those should be able to be cut up to fit on the arms, without much issue.

Ideally that would be what I'd use. But I don't want to spend 10 bucks for one set of wings off Ebay and I posted to the trading section but nobody has come forward with them.

There a few diffrent figures that have wings like that. just make a groove on the arm and glue in the wing.
like this.
Falcon By Chief using Falcon cartoon wings which are nice and thin and flexable.
My Vulture, using Vulture wings from toy biz.

I'm working on Flacon also and I am using wings from a marvel legends Arch Angel. I have started by cutting the bottom row of feathers off but they are still a bit too long. I need to figure another way to shorten them and cut them into two pieces. But for now Falcon is stuck in WIP limbo. :-/

I 'have' a spare set, but they are at a friend's place being cast up to make more. I will see what time frame we are looking at on them.
