The Dark Angel Saga was such a great story that I had to try and make this custom. It also gave me a chance to experiment with making better wings for Archangel. His wings can also swap out and be replaced with their cape like configuration.
You can use foam, give it a wash with watered down glue so you can paint them. Heat them up, flex them into shape, let them cool off so they stay that way
Or, glue a wire along the rim of the wing, then glue another layer of foam on it to cover it up, now theyre poseable.
I used styrene. I drew the wings on paper then traced that onto styrene. I curved the styrene very carefully before cutting it out, then used a hobby knife to cut the wings carefully and scored along the feather lines. I then cut the different sections of the wings and layered them on top to give it some depth before attaching it to removable backpack.
You did a great job on this guy. The sculpting details are stunning, the wings are gorgeous. One of my favorite Archangel custom. I hope to see more of your work in the future. keep up the good work.
Looking at this, you will immediately feel that Warry loved this character and knows every inch of detail there is on him. Labor of love and labored extremely well. It is one, if not THE best Archangel figure I have seen. It's one for the books. Cheers brother !
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this progress on Facebook and the final piece is as flawless as your other work. Warren and Betsy are two of my fave characters and you've done him so much justice here matey
