MAINE - Life in the Slow Lane
Oh hey I've been lazy about posting picks but here is a dark cahill done up from the directions you guys directed me too.
You can't really make out the flank feather wings too well, but with the naked eye theey are obvious. I think it is a fairly accurately tied pattern.

Good Job Theron . So how did you come to master it ? Now for the true test . The fish. Well done.
The trickto these particular type of wings is to tie in the tip of a feather like one wing and cut off the feather and then separate the tip to make two wings. I was essentially making tails where the wings go and they were too sparse that way.
I hope the tip works for you T-Bone. I either read that some where or watched a video on it . But the tip they gave that day was once you tie in the wings don't go back up on them past the tie in point because this will cause the feathers to separate. I am sure you will have to wrap back up a bit but thats what they were saying to avoid . I will look for that video or article for you.
Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time.
On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words,
and some of the words are theirs.
