Another entry for the “dragons with inadequate wings” collection

@volpeon all other dragons have conspired against you to not tell you about their psychokinesis powers, the wings are just for show yep i think that’s the most likely explanation /j

@volpeon the bone structure of the wings worries me the most

@littlefox Oh god, I didn’t even notice the fucked up bones.

@volpeon Its fantasy stuff works differently there

@Johann150 @volpeon I remind of the flying turtle from Bofuri. That one used Telekinesis as well

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

@volpeon That's an easy one: Magic!

@volpeon @littlefox please enlighten me 👀

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.

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

Needs a ​​...

Or a physicist given how miniscule those wings are relative to weight. That thing would need to be flapping half a soccer field on each side if that human is normal sized.
