How about using a bunch of the triangular plastic wing/sail sheets that have
come in several sets, such as 6045, 6088, 6093, 5921, 6495, 6579, etc. 6093
even has feathers printed on it.
I know that these aren't "bricks," but they are still Lego, and they would
add a lot to the fullness with almost no weight gain. Also, I haven't
messed with the CAD stuff yet, but I don't know if these are rendered or not.
