Actually, now that you’ve pointed it out, I don’t know 🤔
You’re right though, it would be cool as heck. I think that Leonardo da Vinci tried to make something similar at some point in his life, but he probably didn’t get very far. Otherwise I’d be wearing them right now!
But more importantly, are they decorative or functional? Can he glide from that branch? The body’s center of balance is typically at the waist, but the wings attach below the shoulder blades, would he need to keep his legs tucked in to avoid flipping over mid glide?
I dunno, I’m just a humble artist doing the commissioner’s bidding 🥺
But I’d like to believe that they’re functional. If tucking the legs in in order to change the center of balance works it’d be good enough for me. I mean, if ninjas can look cool hitting that pose mid jump, he can too.
