My Comic Con buddies want to go steampunk next year, and frankly, I want to go BIG or not at all...
I was thinking I wanted mechanical wings, possibly even wind-up (like a wind-up mechanical angel) and was trying to think of ways in which to make my wings move without flapping my arms.
I know I am shooting pretty high on this one, but I'd figured I'd take a crack at it.
Any tips or links?
For halloween a few years ago I was an angel and Had a pair of wings that were motorized and you can remove them for easy storage. they were about 12-14 dollars. you could get that and make some light weight wings out of cardboard and foil, balsa wood... or even some thin lightweight metal... heres a link for the moving angel wings.
moving wings abit more exspensive than mine but the same style:
