wing advice

Support Modeling
1

hey,
i’ve just finished modeling and rigging these wings and they’re alright, but i wanted some advice on improving them. i want some way to only have to create a few feathers, and copy them over the whole wing, i tried particle hair, and DupliVerts, but neither of them work very well.

although i want the same feathers all over I want to be able to edit their position and orientation if i have to.

i followed this tutorial, and i noticed that some of his feathers have nicks out of them, and i wondered if he had to do that in the model or the texture, any hints?

thanks in advance.
