I'd been thinking about making some wings like that for some time now. The best way to make the connecting part is by molding silicone (think like caulking). You'd probably have to do it the way Katie Bair did with her Shiva costume - she had to use a mannequin to mold the silicone on, as it's pretty bad for you if it touches your skin while it's wet. You'd want to build up layers and add in the base of the wing and build up around it, then paint it somehow to match your skin tone and fade it into whatever colour the wings were.
Once the shoulder parts were moulded, you'd have to use quite a bit of spirit gum to stick them on, and unless you made the wing base out of styrofoam (a good idea, if reinforced) they'd be really heavy.

no leap in logic is too extreme... for RAGE!
