    Find a beater Capt. America, cut off the wings from the sides of his head.
    With fine grit Model Sandpaper ( Testors) and a pencil, wrap the sandpaper around one end, and lightly sand away some
    feather detail, leaving the levels ( 3 rows) intact, but not the feather lines. then repaint and re glue to your Flash head
    with a dab of locktite.

      I would try friendly plastic.
      I haven't had a chance to use it yet myself, but I have seen other people use it to create smaller "thinner" details and it looks awesome. And it's not that expensive compared to most art supplies. you technically have to shape it yourself, but it air dries and isn't heavy like clay. I really need to get some myself!

        You might try getting a Mattel DC Classics Flash and just cut the lightning pieces off.
