@volpeon @littlefox It's okay, the dragon just has some sailplane on his dad's side of the ancestry

@volpeon what show is that from

@errant @volpeon dragons fucking Planes?!?

@littlefox @volpeon It's okay, they were in lve

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip It will never end.

@errant @volpeon nawww, good for them then x3

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip @littlefox@gotosocial-dev.svc.0x0a.network please enlighten me

@xarvos @volpeon multiple points where "fingers" go from - like, there is a "finger bone" going from the elbow o.o

@volpeon That's an easy one: Magic!

For vertebrates, wings tend to take one of two forms. You can have bird-like wings where the segments are arm, forearm, wrist, with fingers bunched up at the end. In that case, you don't get any ridges in the middle. Alternatively, you can have bat-like wings that go arm, forearm, a bunched up wrist, then really long fingers that spread out. Those are the thing that different parts of the flap hang off of.

There are some things in between them like pterodactyls that are mostly like a bat but only have one finger that sticks out so the end of the wing is more like a bird. And flying fish don't have any bones in their wings despite being vertebrates, the spines aren't bones.

But this dragon has the equivalent of a finger coming out of its elbow.

Oh, and they aren't symmetrical. I don't know a lot of aircraft with different wing shapes on the left and right.

The elbow spike is also bad, but the bigger problem I noticed here is that the elbow bends the wrong way. ​​
