How to make a FOLDING WING! | Hades Cosplay Tutorial

Learn how to make an articulating wing that folds open and closed in this cosplay tutorial! For my Meg cosplay I wanted a slim and light weight wing that could open and close. This design uses a simple hinge mechanism and the power of gravity.

OH MY GOD I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR AGES FOR MY TOHRU COSPLAY! All the other wing tutorials I looked at were either super complicated or just didn't have the closing effect... Thank you so much for uploading this!!

[@RandomTuesday]

Glad it’s helpful!

[@xhaianimates8071]

[@Tins.art.studio]

MEMEMEMEME TOO OMGAEGA

[@MadiTheSandwing]

I'm like twenty days away and idk what I'm gonna be but I've been wanting to make these for like ten months for my costume

[@Quentinfries]

I'm dressing as fluttershy this halloween, but a mix of flutterbat + inspired by the corruption from the magnus archives 😭

[@roseserpenthelm7448]

Literally perfect. I’m going to use this for a rouge the bat cosplay in a corset!

[@punk-ish-pastels]

Omg same!! Batwings are so underrated I just want some tutorials please

[@SilkFedora]

That's what brings me here. Rouge the Bat

[@2Creepie7707]

oh my god im doing the same cosplay

[@user-sl5pr7fz6y]

Me too!

[@Koko-pm4qq]

How did that cosplay go? I'd love to know

[@meghanb8319]

This tutorial rocks! I followed it to make wings for my suneater cosplay. It was super straight forward and each step was clear. The only adjustment I made was not putting it in a corset. Thanks so much!

[@Victoria-zn4wo]

This is SUPER helpful for my next Drag look! I been trying to find a way to do a wings and you solved it thankyou

[@jaclyncraeming2623]

love this!! probably gonna use this tutorial for a light-weight version of hawks' wings

[@Im-One-Drawer]

yasss i need that

[@katze7861]

(FOR AHRI COSPLAYS!) I recommend making it where the pullstrings can be pulls upwards and use 4 main pipes for the tails! Use smaller pieces for other tails!

[@Moon_Mustang]

THANK YOU! I hope to use this info to make a Disassemably drone N cosplay!!!

[@sylviaaz8352]

I been looking for something easy instructions. Others are like complicated , take alot of time. Which one day I may go that far. But your is by far the easiest n cheaper way to make the wings thank you.

[@kiiyann0]

thank you so so much for this i have been AGONIZING for days trying to figure out why my wings weren't working i forgot about the fulcrum

[@thecupcakereaper]

Thanks a ton for the super awesome tutorial!! It took some great engineering to make this :) Just remember everyone- heating pvc pipes emits toxic fumes so go outside to do it!!💕

[@_elle]

THANK YOU this is a godsend - I'm cosplaying a gijinka of Charizard this summer, and I couldn't wrap my head around how I could make the wings collapsible for transport. Was nearly ready to build them fully extended and strap them down in the bed of my truck to get to the con lmao I will be using your method instead; I love how subtle the cord is!

[@RandomTuesday]

Good luck with your build! The perk of these is they are also pretty easy to assemble and disassemble so you can probably pack them even smaller for travel if you wanted.

[@Skye-cc5dx]

I NEEDED THIS FOR MY HAWKS COSPLAY THANK THE COSPLAY GODS!!

[@Fl0ck.0f.Cr0wz]

[@suulacooeagles4226]

Thank you so much for this. I just needed to lift my wings up but all the tutorials i found were for fully articulated wings.

[@Koko-pm4qq]

Currently getting ideas on how to make opening and shutting wings and this has been super helpful. Thank you so much.

[@jeraldshaw5233]

This tutorial was great! Thank you for not making it overly complicated. Going to use this for my Dragon force Natsu cosplay

[@luvitlikeiteatit4305]

Thank you so much R.T for this video. I went to mcm comic con yesterday with my version of these wings. They were amazing nice and light! Thank for making this video!❤

[@traceycrockett8696]

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this! My daughter wanted to have working wings for a cosplay at PopCon and due to your video, it worked!!! I told everyone that asked how they worked that your video was my guide. Thank you!

[@kamilagreculova2027]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I'm making a Cassian cosplay for my boyfriend and I had most of the mechanism figured out but there were some things I was missing - your video basically showed me exactly where I went wrong.

[@mawratmarie]

Future Touka cosplayer looking up info!!! You are a LIFE SAVER my friend 😭😭😭

[@theparkourlady894]

Hi. Nice simple design❤ Quick tip: when u have to flatten a large area of pvc pipe, heat the whole section till floppy then compress it between two pieces of wood by slapping it between them and leaning ur full weight or standing on top (since u needed a space for paracord I might have put a thin dowl inside to create a channel). Just much easier and faster and smoother than doing it bit by bit with a clamp. Anyway, off to watch the rest. Tx for sharing!

[@Oceans.Oranges]

Thank you. This is just what I've been looking for. I need it for my costume. ❤

[@gecko2.617]

perfect! Finally found the base for my wing-idea. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!

[@manonsouhait6902]

This is perfect, thank you ! I have the exact same needs for my cosplay (Madrigal fromDaughter of smoke and bones) so this is awesome !!

[@iro3907]

omg I’m totally gonna use this tutorial when making my cosplay this summer!! I was looking for something just like it, you’re a live saver 💕

[@damisnap3452]

PERFECT FOR MY META KNIGHT COSPLAY THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

[@WrappedUpCinema]

Please make a video on that, I want to see it!

[@arthenasmagick]

This is almost exactly how I made bat wings years ago but I have lost my creative touch with seeing each step. The difference is your dragon wings hinge mechanism. Brilliant!🔥 Thank you for this tutorial. Because I have not been fortunate to find what I like online. (Ready made).

[@josephrhoades8113]

Instead of tying off to a length of string (needs two hands) why not sew two or three buttons to that point? You can wrap the activation cord around them figure-8 style, which should be a one handed motion.

[@RandomTuesday]

I actually did that at first but found the tension wasn’t quite enough to keep the wing up. But I think if I’d fiddled with it more I could have got it to work, definitely worth a try!

[@SunEeveeREAL]

Deff useing this for my husk cosplay!

[@kemiperian8818]

Totally using this for my dragon cosplay

[@Jasper_Raid-nk8uv]

Ive not watched this yet, but i hope it works for my Ryuk cosplay that I'm planning on doing for my next con.

[@Im-One-Drawer]

Omg thank you so much All i really needed was the closing a opening mechanism for my hawks cosplay :)

[@Lanacwazy]

This is so cool! I'm totally going to follow it, also I loved the finish product and remember to wear your safety glasses 🤭

[@kristafreed7609]

Can I attach foam feathers to these and if so how ? I’m a Shibari performer and am wanting to make a pair of wings for my next preference in November, and am wanting to use old books for the feathers, also what type of wire did you use ?

[@ShannonCKinsey]

super simple! Love it. Using this for a Halloween Bone Raven prop and its perfect! Thanks for doing such a great tutorial!

[@Imactually_spiderman]

Omg bro this helped so much I was looking everywhere for something like this for my wings for my Halloween costume😍😊

[@seviphish]

this is seriously the best wing tutorial i've ever seen - i'm cosplaying simon snow and this is so perfect for him. do you have any tips on assembling the skeleton of the wing while inside of the fabric?

[@Bereft777]

I love your joint mechanism! My wing used a similar but with a spring keeping it open and a cord to keep is closed.

[@iliketodrawthatsit7323]

Do you have the exact measurements and type of pipe we will need for each part? (Im not sure how much pipe to get 😭)(also the size of paracord too)

[@kittycatkrew8953]

OML THANK YOU SO MUCH IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR WINGS LIKE THIS HUT THEY ARE TOO EXPENSIVE FOR MY UZI COSPLAY YIPEEE

[@St4rry_sage]

Samee

[@Frost_NYC]

Thanks for the video, I have a very ambitious idea for a Cosplay I want to try and this technique will make or break the idea. I'll keep you posted, thanks again

[@Bookishgirl-je2gz]

You can use one of those clips they use for shoes! You know !? The ones the you push down a tiny bottom and tighten the lase and push down again and loosing it ! That's so much easier than tight up the laces 🧐

[@chikecnnugget]

is there a way to do this without having to attach it to a corset? my cosplay has full on robes and i cant wear a corset (asriel dreemurr god of hyperdeath), i dont know where id connect the wings to!!! helpp also this is a very nice tutorial thank you so much! :D

[@RandomTuesday]

Should be doable, I'd look up tutorials on "wing harnesses" people have made. It's generally some sort of backplate/ backpack style harness with shoulder and chest straps. Kinpatsu cosplay has done a few varieties.

[@patriciahsuan7930]

Thank you, thank you! You got the best solution for what I can make!!! best ever!

[@abbyception0719]

Thank you for this tutorial! I'm planning to make a version of these for my partial fursuit, who has bat-like wings!!!

[@Silveria-et8ry]

My kid is planning a lute cosplay i think im going to do this for her wings

[@itto1135]

This was so helpful for my genshin gliding wings

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

This is perfect for a Gargoyles cosplay.

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

Also perfect for a gijinka version of Charizard or Ridley.

[@JoJo-zh7ko]

Super cute & awesome thanks!

[@Apsiister]

Omg this has the exact effect I have been looking for for my Genderbent Hawks Cosplay, gotta get to work and see how it will turn out, I'm not a really advanced cosplayer or prop maker so I feel like I'm about to do some improvising with like the materials and stuff but lets see if they'll turn out wearable

[@Dietwaterstore]

THANK YOU SO MUCH I WANTED THIS FOR MY ANGEL DEVIL COSPLAY AND DIDNT WANT TO BUY ONE FOR $40 ON AMAZON!

[@BYE739]

omg thank you sm i wanted to so somethink like this for my Halloween costume AND this was so ez TYSMMM

[@Snofey1]

Thank you! I was looking for something like this to finish my Meg cosplay 🙏

[@anelkogudovic6240]

I always wondered how that works to make wings like that but now i understand how to make them thats good for halloween or cosplays and this is new to me so thats why is my comment in 2023

[@nimbuseyes]

this is gonna be great for my smaug cosplay

[@Alejandro-dz1kn]

Thank you so much, I'm trying to do Angel's wings (the xmen) and I didn't know where or how to start with them jaja, love the video!

[@duskerrrrrr]

This mechanism is exactly what I needed for my Flandre cosplay !!! Thanks a lot

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

This is also perfect if you want to cosplay as a character from Gargoyles.

[@AmeliaUniball]

TYSM for making this vid ❤❤❤ It helped me a lot :3

[@Meltigger]

Wow, this seems perfect for the design of making wings. I've never done anything like it before and we are doing an Alice event and my son wanted to be the Jabberwocky. What's a dragon without wings?! I had no idea really on how to go about it so thank you for this because now I can wrap my brain around what i need to do!

[@smiley3199]

this is honestly so helpful thank you

[@thegremlin3194]

Thanks this is a great starting point for me as I am going to attempt a Sephiroth wing

[@hannasmith6621]

I'm actual thinking of using this to make a collapsible soul from soul eater. The last con I went to a girl used a curtain rod to make her scythe adjustable and my mind is running wild with the possibilities

[@wolfkid6049]

Thank you so much, I'm trying to make a pair of angel LED wings for my boyfriend. I want it to be a gift for him, and this definitely helped for a simple idea!

i love this channel omg

[@morganshook4600]

Hi! So I was clear on how to make this up until the fabric, can someone explain how to sew the wings more? Like where to sew, how big to make it, and stuff

[@RandomTuesday]

The size of the fabric is either based on the size of your frame if you make that first or decide on the wing size and then make the frame to fit. You cut out two pieces of fabric in the shape you want and see them together right sides facing leaving enough of a gap to insert the frame. Sorry if that explanation doesn’t add a lot more clarity. It might also help to look at other wing tutorials to see if you can modify their approach.

[@lorenzoturner5724]

So awesome! And I can’t wait to get started…this is SOOO helpful. Thank you 🙌🏾

[@stormiemeow]

Wow! This is incredible! Thank you for sharing!

[@nora3254]

This is amazing! Thank you!

[@Lemapple073]

This is an absolute life saver!!- I needed to make some wings for an upcoming competition and to match with my friends. I shared the video with them, and they were so relieved. Just a quick question, do you *need* to use worbla when covering the wire part of the wing? I can’t order it and it’s a bit confusing of what material I should use to replace it (if I can)

[@RandomTuesday]

Worldb definitely isn’t required, if don’t have access to thermoplastic’s in general I’d suggest sandwiching the wire in EVA foam - and maybe consider thicker wire as the Worbla does provide some strength you’ll be missing out on.

[@alexandraliv1124]

This will be so helpful for our eagle

[@SummersSummertime]

Is it possible to do this same thing but add feathers on it? Would I be able to put feathers just on the frame and not over fabric or do I need to put them on the fabric?

[@violettracey]

Thank you!

[@puppiesgacha2948]

I love this way of making opening wings. I'm working on a Castiel cosplay. I need angel wings and would love if they moved. I'm probably going to use this to make them move and then figure out the feathers myself. How could I attach them though? If I'm in a trenchcoat idk where I would be able to attach it. If anyone could help me come up with ideas it'd be really appreciated. Any ideas are great

[@rubisdubis.mp4]

gonna try to use this tutorial to cosplay eris from hades 2 lol
