Many thanks S3D. Excelling. in all the time I've used this I didn't once realise this was the means to its end.
I wanted the wings
only to glare with reflectivity as it flew in a sunset. The sky being dark, the glisten of amber wings with glassy sheen now is really Disneyfied. Many thanks for the info.
Armstrong.
"Tashy settled into the saddle to sleep the rest of the night and noticed his wings glisten as if wet while he flew gracefully onwards; ever onwards. In her dreams she imagined him made of Glass and wondered how he would land on a Rocky Mountain without smashing into a billion glassy scales."
From "Lorna's Dragon.".
Written in 2000 by Armstrong.
In flight as this reflectivity runs the course of the wing in motion the effects adds a further dimension of animation to something that we expect to move, the wing, and then suddenly something else comes in, like salt n pepper to a steak, and adds a little something more. It's a single second but they all add up. 
I like this more now.
It's important to me that only the wings shine like oiled silk, and then only parts.
