Description
People keep asking how I make stuff, so here's a really short explaination... Not so much a tutorial as a step-by-step. Sometimes I take pictures of what I'm doing so I can refer back later and make it the same way
1. Wing stamping + small 'leaf' stampings that I used for feathers
2. Arrange feathers to create desired shape
3. Glue! Lay on scrap plastic to dry so you can peel it off easily
4. Glued another wing piece over the back to hide the feather ends.
5. Example piece.
Warning - It's a b**** getting the feathers to stay in the correct position so the wings are symmetrical.

So, do you always use glue to assemble your pieces, or do you have to solder them sometimes?

Nice wings!
Sometimes I use my children's plasticine to keep the position of the small parts.
