So last night I was told by my wife (who I thought loved Halloween as much as me 
, but still pretty close) that I went a little overboard this year building some wings. The nerve on this woman lol, J/K. The wingspan WILL be ~ 11' and mounted to my demon I have posted HERE, but I have run into some issues hopefully I can get help with:
I am still working on the frames, but I'm unsure of what to use for the webbing between the limbs and how to secure it to the frame. I did get some "clear" (it's almost white from the thickness) 3.5 mil plastic to use, but I'm not sure if that will last for a few years. Currently my plan is to use paper mache clay to build the details of the wings, drill a few holes in the back, and then use gorilla glue to affix the plastic. Anyone know if this will work, or if using Great Stuff instead of the glue would. I'm afraid the wind will just rip the plastic off.
I am also worried that once I mount these massive things on the current frame it will tip, and the wind will damage the wings. I can't think of a way to prevent this.
Pictures of the current frame of one wing (still a LOT more work to be done, currently 5 feet long) and final idea for the wings.
