Description
The third batch. The one in the top corner is how they would operate their technology. Their feet are actually highly dexterous, and they use them in the same ways we use hands. So the primary input is a sphere near the floor, augmented by small auxiliary controls on the arms of the chair. Their wing claws have very limited mobility. I based this partially off of the anatomy of an archaeopteryx. The spherical control was actually inspired by Forerunner controls from the Halo series. [link]Concept (C) Grashcoy and myself.

This whole thing is just brilliant!
(Sorry I'm being so slow, by the way.)

It is awesome to see how this species can adapt their harware to their bodies in such a manner that makes them more capable than we humans are. I DO take issue though with them not being able to fly, I thing it rests an important element to exploit into the plot, though there could also be racial differences between those who can fly and those who don't, we should research this aspect a little more.
As for this beign the first set of sketches, they came out perfectly, so I must commend you for crafting such a great concept that we discussed for so much time. ^v^

Perhaps I should have clarified that a bit better. On their own world, perhaps due to some combination of lower gravity and atmospheric density, they would be able to fully fly there, but have difficulty in our own planetary conditions.
Thanks, bro, as always. ^v^

Ah... I see, we should develop then the size and mass of their homeworld as well as the atmospheric conditions, it should also suit the size of the population we want as well as the resources available, I will discuss that with you 'cause that needs more indepth thought.
You're welcome, bro. ^v^

Indeed, I'm really looking forward to work on this as well. ^v^

I really like this concept. I myself have wondered about the details of a possible alien avian race. Very nice job, my friend ^V^

It's an interesting thought process. Thanks, my friend.
