#119208 To be completely honest, i really do think that there should be 2 wings on each side for the sitting position.
A. to make it easier for me to texture, to add more detail and make it as accurate as possible
B. because he literally has 2 wings on each side

there's like zero actual flying zapados pictures but you get my point. ouo

this is definitely how it should be. no bird, not even a pokemon, can fly with their feet sticking out like that.

But there still are 2 wings on each side, just cause it doesn't look like its extruded out in the movie doesn't mean it cant be, it would be logical to have 2 wings on each side for the sitting position just cause the flying position has it,
I say make a second wing and ever so slightly, make a gap between the 2 wings.. just to see how it looks. and if it doesn't go with the bird then throw the idea in the garbage

Did you just try bringing logic into this? Its a bird with 4 wings that dont bend, it logically cant even have a resting position if you use logic

It illogically can have a resting position.
.....if you don't use logic, that is.

Looking at that reference picture, the feet look a tad too big.

I believe he said they're only out for rigging purposes, but being someone who knows nothing about rigging I don't know exactly how that would work.. would it be a transition animation? Or would it just suddenly start flying once off the ground like the birds are right now in game which would require a model fix of the feet?
