I swear, all of the fantasy stories I plan on writing are gonna be written JUST for the sake of fixing creature anatomy. people will ask, “hey, what inspired u to create this world and these characters?” and my answer will be, “shit creature design”

anyways

anyone else ever eternally bothered by winged people designs, and how they not only 1) lack a keel of any sort, and 2) also somehow make the wings able to “disappear” into the creatures’ backs? no one? well, for the sake of my own pride, I’ll pretend I’m not the only one

basically, my goal here was to design a more anatomically-realistic winged “person”

design changes-

added keel, and related muscular attachments, so the wings have power, and aren’t just flippy-floppy pieces of skin

added more muscle attachment to the back, for the same reason

added a tail, to increase surface area, and help w/ general flight, such as bird tail feathers might. I also added a lil blip to the right side abt a tail that’s more of a flat paddle made of cartilage rather than the spined frill I drew for the main design. the paddle is prolly more realistic when it comes to evolution, but I personally like drawing frills, aha

tried to pull the back end of the hips back (in that main “see-through” design) so the spine is still being held in place by the hips

made the legs digitigrade, so there are more joints in the leg to help handle the force of landing. I didn’t make the foot more “talon-like” like a bird cus’ 1) I still wanted the design to be somewhat human-esque, and 2) I somehow imagine these critters not hanging onto branches and such as much as birds. sure, if they evolved in someplace w/ lots of rly strong/big trees, like the Amazon, then I’d prolly redesign their feet, but I didn’t rly think of WHERE they’d evolve, tbh, so I’m sticking w/ these feet. also, I imagine them using their feet more for running about than trying to catch prey

more pointed face, to help break up air currents more than a typical, flat human face would

spine attaches more to the back of the skull, so the head can more easily be titled upwards during flight

much smaller and lighter than typical humans, to help w/ flight

possible hair/mane on the head and down the back, possibly onto the tail as well? as far as I know, hair helped protect humans from sunburn (again, only as far as I know), so hair would prolly be beneficial on the neck/back/tail as well, cus’ they’d be more exposed to the sun during flight

also, did a bit of light clothes/culture design. I imagine their clothes would all be very light and airy– something that’d easily allow the wings/tail to move. they’d prolly hate anything more form-fitting, mostly cus’ more form-fitting stuff is much harder for them to wear, except on the legs, and mayybe the arms. thus, skirts/dresses and similar flowy garments are prolly popular. they also prolly don’t wear tops much, if at all, b/c, again, of the wings. skirts might be held up by hip-hugging elastic of some sort, but they’re more likely wear a lot of ‘round-the-neck suspenders (esp if we’re talking abt a culture that doesn’t have access to elastic). in colder weather/climates, I imagine some combo between a snuggle and a poncho– something that easily drapes over the wings, to keep them out of the cold, but also doesn’t impede either arm or wing movement. chairs w/ backs are non-existent in this culture. what are chairs w/ backs? these guys don’t know

I’m sure all of these design elements, both anatomical and clothes-wise, could be applied to feather-winged people as well, I’m just more comfortable drawing bat-like wings, aha. actually, feather-winged people might actually have an easier time w/ clothes, cus’ fabrics and such could slide under feathers, while that’s not an option for solid membrane. bat-winged people prolly have an easier time sitting in human-made chairs, tho, cus’ their fingers can bend, and membrane stretch around the backs, while feathers would just break. HMHM something to think abt, I guess
