Default Mike's fold for making wings tutorial

I have had some request to make a tutorial for the fold technique that I use in making my bird wings and dolphin fines along with dragon wings. Since it was impossible to do so using still photos and text, I made a short video to explain the technique. For the video I am using a trial version of a media player on my website, so you have to put up with a short sales pitch befor my tutorial comes on. I intend to purchase the software but I wanted to get this on fast just to see how it worked.
Yall enjoy and thanks
Mike

Nice video... I never thought of just laying it over itself... I lay lines and burn off, your way is much quicker! Thanks.

Mike the video was awesome!! I love that you did it in video form rather then with just pictures. Seeing it actually done makes some much more sense,for me anyway.
