What you get

Everything, in one place

No scattered clips, no missing measurements. One private page you keep forever.

I

Twenty videos

Every step filmed at the workbench and streamed in high quality. Watch a cut, pause, make the same cut. No commentary you have to translate.

II

Printable patterns

The full wing template tiled across A4 sheets with an assembly map, plus the sizes-and-cuts reference and the shoulder mount template.

III

All three sizes

Size L is ready now. Medium and Small are added to the same page as they are finished — included, at no extra cost.

Not a costume prop.
A mechanism.

These wings open and close. A cable-and-chain linkage runs through the frame, so a movement of your hands sweeps four and a half metres of feathers through the air. That is what makes a room go quiet.

The course builds that mechanism from scratch — the frame, the linkage, the shoulder mount that carries the weight, and the feather layers that hide all of it.

  • Articulated frame with steel cable and chain drive
  • Shoulder mount built to sit on the body, not fight it
  • Foam feathers cut, heat-shaped and layered in order
  • Light enough to wear and dance in

Wings by Winged Away
Fifteen years of building wings by hand — the whole method, in one course.

Elona has been making articulated wings for more than fifteen years — for performances, photoshoots and clients around the world. Every pair is assembled by hand, feather by feather.

This course is the same build she does in her own workshop, filmed step by step: the measurements she actually uses, the order that keeps the layers clean, and the fixes for the places where it usually goes wrong.

Questions

Before you buy

How do I get access after paying?
You receive a private page link by email. Open it on any device, any time — the videos stream in the browser, nothing to install. Access does not expire.
Is the course spoken or subtitled?
The build is shown visually. Every step has a written instruction in English above the video, and the diagrams carry the measurements, so there is nothing to translate by ear.
Do I need previous crafting experience?
No. The course starts from printing the pattern and assumes nothing. What it does ask for is patience and a willingness to work with a heat gun and a glue gun — nothing that cannot be learned in an afternoon.
How long does a pair take to build?
The maker builds a pair in six to eight hours of continuous work, but she has been doing this for fifteen years. Someone she taught in person took a full day and a little more. Plan for a weekend rather than an evening, and split it across sessions — the frame is the part not to rush.
What will the materials cost me?
There is no single honest answer, because it depends entirely on where you shop. The same foam, cable and fabric can cost three times more in one country than another, and prices in the United States tend to run above those in Ukraine or Europe. The full list of what to buy is above — take it to your local shops and you will know your own figure in an afternoon.
What does “all three sizes included” mean?
One payment covers Large, Medium and Small. Size L is complete and available immediately. M and S appear on the same page as they are finished, and you are not charged again.
Can I sell wings I build from this course?
Yes — you may sell wings you make yourself. What you may not do is share, resell or republish the course, its videos or its patterns.
Can I get a refund?
Yes — you have 7 days from purchase to ask for your money back, and 15 days if you are buying from within the European Union. Refunds are handled by Hotmart, who processed your payment. And if something goes wrong on our side at any point — a broken link, a video that will not load — write to us and we will fix it or refund you in full.
