GLAMOROUS Fallen Angel Wings

Step 4Make A Wire Frame

Make A Wire Frame
This third step might be difficult for those who have not worked with wire before. If you find yourself stumped, I recommend getting a friend to help with this part.

Using your wire, construct a wire frame for your wings as shown below. We will do this by using two different pieces of wire, one for the large piece of "u" shaped, curved-up wire on the top, and one for the loop which connects to this larger piece and makes the “harness” (which will be used to support your back).

First, bend a piece of wire the length of your wingspan to make a soft “w” shape. At the two low points of the “w,” attach a second piece of wire approx. half the length of the last. The piece of wire can be attached by wrapping, crimping and twisting the ends of the wire around the “w” with your pliers to form a loop. Again, the dimensions of the frame may vary according to your design. To modify it, take a look at your wing sketch and decide which areas the wings will primarily be attached to. Make sure your frame will support all elements of your design.
