Color shading a wind turbine blade in tikz
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{
margin-bottom:0;
}

I am pretty new to tikz and my goal is to draw a generic wind turbine blade such that I can fill it with colors shading from green (left) to red (right)
like a colormap plot I hope you get the idea.
With my current skills I could draw the blade in a line by line fashion, but I would like to learn how to do it in a "smarter" way such that I easily can color the figure within the lines.
