What is the ratio of thickness of the pleated section: the thickness of the torso to hindleg section, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance![/img]

It looks like the ratio is sqrt(2)-1:1. Another way to think about it is that the pleated section is twice as wide as a wing flap.

Thanks- but how do you get that?

There's a blintz and a birdbase angle that meets the vertical middle line. These should be all the references you need.

By the way, it's Bahamut and not Bahumat.
