If I use cloth, there will be about 4 or 5 pieces per wing.  If nothing
else, I can try converting the finished dragon into a wingless variety.
Thanks for the compliment and the suggestion.

Well, your a pretty darn good builder, so chances are if you are going to
use cloth, it will be done nicely.

Mayby a whole slew of SW capes, like from Qui-gon and the red ones from the
Imperial Shuttle may judt do it for you. They have little holes to accept
the mini-fig arms so at least you can mount them easily.

May be better than cutting some cloth, at least it's purist in that sense.

I would like to know what you think of using cloth in MOCs.  This
applies primarily to the dragon I'm working on.  I'd like to make the
dragon entirely out of LEGO elements, but the feathered wing designs
I've tried have had serious flaws.

I've created a bat like wing that would need cloth membranes in order to
fold properly.  This wing is about 16 inches long when spread.

Here's a link showing the current iteration of the dragon's head.  It's
going to be a bit long, but it should give an idea of the potential size
of the dragon.

Now that I've typed all of this for a simple question, LMKWYT.
