Thanks. It was just an idea I had floating around in my head. I'm going to try sticking some foam on the bottom of the wing and carve it so it makes the feathers turn down just a little. I've never tried anything this elaborate, but hey, no guts, no glory. :lol:

Geez Gene, you do not mess around. I hope you're making some money from this venture because you're turning out some really nice stuff.
