I would say do some greenstuff work to attach the wing membrane to the bodies, and if that turns out well go full speed ahead with making more of these. -------------------- Demons need love too...hugs for everyone!

I would cut the membrane straight from the closest "finger" on the wing straight to the armpit. That's what I did, and have seen, and it's a cleaner look. -------------------- "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." Mike Tyson

ok that is a good idea. i went for a jagged edge because i thought it would be more menacing but with the graceful pose, cleaner will indeed be better.

Agreed. Keep up the good work on this project.

Didn't WD have a Cult of Slaanesh army that someone had converted up and used the harpy wings on the 'nettes? I know whoever did the army did an entire unit head swap of diaznette heads in place of witch elf heads.

Or maybe I'm just getting the two confused.
