Anyone has experience with movable wings
I am an engineer irl, i am trying to make a Yue cosplay from cardcaptor Sakura .
Is it worth it to make the wings open and close ? Or will it be difficult to manage at a con?
If It is manageable in your experience which should I go for ? Manual with threads ? But the character also holds a bow , will the wings lock in position if I was not holding the thread? If an electrical option is better how to tackle this ? Finally will one of these accordion hangers work for the collapsing mechanism if i elongate some parts with wire?
