 I was hoping for some help with a model.  Here is the Carrara model - it needs work, but this is a start.  I need help with the feet - ( webs and toes ) and any ideas for the wings?

I want to make a puffin that doesn't require two models, like many other bird models - one for flying and one for wings in.  I know it is possible.  The wings should fold in - the outer end folds in and under, the middle folds a little over - and all in to the body.  

And the vertex model needs to be adjusted for correct folding and bending once I apply bones.
I'm thinking aloud - don't intend someone to do all this for me - just sharing the model for anyone interested in playing with it.

I'll work on a texture later and then add the bones.

The feathers on the wings are another issue  - I always struggle with real physical feathers or a texture map.  Most people use a texture map.
