I was under the impression 'rice paper' and 'wafer paper' are the same thing....

You can airbrush; don't oversaturate else the paper will wrinkle up.

Paper dont taste good.. From what I have been told its the same as Waffer Paper so I would think it would not have a taste to it..

For the most part they are not going to eat the wings its something that IF a Child was to get it and was to eat it then it would be safe...

Yes there is a few things you can do here...

1 a NON Toxic marker your able to use on your paper
2 There are pens out there that are empty and you fill them with that colors you want from air brush colors
3 there are pens at countrykitchen that are all ready colored but they are limited colors basic...

Ok I just called Country Kitchen and they said they were discontinued... BUT I am wondering if you would be able to use the new WATER BRUSH that is out for this same thing.. I am going to google them to see if I can find the brushes any where else... lol

These are not empty but they are good colors... http://www.cooksworld.com/Merchant3/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CW&Product_Code=1110&Category_Code=newproducts

The other thing you can do like I said a while ago is you can go to WalMart and just get NON TOXIC Kids markers and you can use them too..

Yes They do they are in the school area... if its not school time they are on the other wall where you get glue and paperclips ect.. They have a few different brands that are NON TOXIC you just have to read the package... As someone there where they have there crayolas,

Also I was at Michales Crafts the other day and in there Stamping area they have pens that you fill and I was wondring if they would work.. There is a Cotton piece in the tub and you fill that with the ink I would think that you would be able to do the same with food coloring..
