Mechanical pencil. (oh lawd, I cannot draw feathers...)

So I was watching X-men: The Last Stand on tv, and one of the characters has wings ala angelic layout. One of the scenes near the end of the movie is him effortlessly flying around in the sky. I started wondering how practical wings would actually be on a human being, and so I began to look up bird skeletal structures and muscles and such. My conclusion: winged people would be far more likely to constantly flop over onto their backs like epileptic turtles due to omghuge!wings that they're not built to be able to use, than to go merrily flying around. Sorry, fantasy - logic crushes you once again. :<

So, that inspired this. Strap-on wings must be the only wings...
