Step 2Reinforce areas with duct tape and add hinges
There are a few areas that will be weak points. Reinforce these with duct tape.
To make the hinges, put the wings in place (make sure they work first) and simply poke some scissors through. I made two holes in the main body and one in the wing. I threaded it through like the picture below.

Here is a picture from the back of the wings. I used colored duck tape and permanent ink markers. I used pipe insulation to beef up the wing tips.

WOW - that looks really good! Do they still fold in all the way or do the pipes get in the way? Even if they don't - wow! These are really pro! :) Awesome job!

I made these wings with some adaptations from the tape sculpturing section and a pattern for the front portion. Here are some pictures of how it came out.
