Step 15

Take a small piece of flesh mixture and roll into a log shape of approximately 4mm (a little less than 1/6") width. Then cut two pieces of 5mm (1/5") in length.

 

Step 16

Take the two pieces and roll them into thinly pointed tear drop shape, as shown.

 

Step 17

Take the tear drop shapes, and holding the pieces very lightly proceed to shape them into the wings, as shown.

 

 

Step 18

Gently take the fatter end of the tear drop shaped piece in your left hand between your thumb and forefinger. Then with your right hand gently push the thin end up, as shown.

 

 

Step 19

Now nip the bottom into an elbow shape. Do the same with the 2nd wing, then place both to one side.

Your wings should look as shown in the image!

 

 

Step 20

Now you should have a carcass, 2 legs, and 2 wings!!

 

 

 

Step 21

Next, we need to add a small amount of flesh mixture to the front of the carcass piece, which is now ready to add the legs.

Take a small piece of flesh clay then add it to the front of the carcass, smoothing it over the breast bone, using your finger to smooth the join.
