I've been meaning to do one of these for a while and finally remembered to take the photographs when I was doing my latest custom, Candy Girl :)
I really hope it makes some sort of sense! Feedback would be very much appreciated as it's the first time I've ever written a tutorial :)

FINALLY! I've been looking for a tutorial like this for a couple of hours today (I've been trying before too)...I was beginning to think that how to make these kind of wings was a close guarded secret :D

Thank you!

thank you very much for the tutorial. but one question, can i use tinfoil instead of wire mesh?

I don't think tinfoil would be strong enough, to be honest, but give it a go if you want!

Thank you for this more detailed tutorial. It's always nice when a fellow customizer reveals tricks of the trade that everyone else won't do!!

Just a question, cause you showed pictures with the non rehaired head on the body...how do you work after you have sculpt the wings? Iam new in this, never have sculpted any wings...

So, isnīt it easer to rehair first and then sculpt the wings? Just a question, this tutorial is great and i will totally use it in the near future

I normally strip the pony (hair off, marks off etc) and go from there. I put the head back on when I'm sculpting so the wings don't accidentally poke the pony in the eye or something :D But I don't like rehairing before I sculpt because then I run the risk of getting clay in the hair and that's just a biiig nightmare. Doing it differently could totally work though!

Ah ok. So itīs also an idea to rehair first (head and body), then sculpting the wings and then adding the new rehaired head back on the body? Do you think this might work too?
