How much would the Human Skeleton and musculature have to change to accommodate a pair wings?
On their back, like an Angel or a Demon. Please explain for bird like wings and bat-like wings. Like what we see in the appearance of good Angels and evil Demons.
I’m working on a project and need help with this one. I know if you just implant some oversized bird wings on a human that wouldn’t necessarily work, so what would we need to do to the human skeleton to allow the existence of wings?
look at the breast bone and the amount of breast meat on a chicken. how much of its body weight is composed of the muscles that make flight possible….. now think about how graceful a chicken in flight is… the ratios and masses for birds like sparrows or hawks is even more dramatic. A humans breast bone would have to extend four or five feet straight out from the chest, well past the length of our arms, and the breast muscles would have to traverse from an anchor at the base of the pelvis to up above the neckline, somewhere areound the ears and back/sides of the head.
You could probably photomorph a profile picture of a pigeon or a red-breasted robin with a profile of an anorexiclly thin person and get a rough idea. Anchor the eyeballs and the ankles, let the rest morph…. the human waist would have to drop almost to knee depth… thighs and shins would be four to six inches long. Also, remember, most birds have hollow bones with a latticelike structure to the calcium for less weight.
You’d almost certainly have to sacrifice arms for wings.
