    I'll not stand around and simp, but I don't think you need to struggle with body issues. You wore everything well and the footage was great! You made something neat and you should be proud.

    I'll send this to a cosplayer friend of mine. The idea is great.
    If I had to nitpick I would say the wings are a bit too high but it's the only thing I can find to nitpick about.

    I'm gonna say this as gently as possible. I had to stop the video at 14:26 to come down here and say, I understand that body image often has little to do with the reality of our bodies, but you look absolutely fantastic and that outfit is KILLER. Great job on the wings, especially having to figure out what to do without any prior knowledge of this kind of build! Plus you managed to keep something from going to landfill~ You're fantastic, and you're doing a good job.

    I think having them angled a bit more would make them look more... "organic", in a way? But I assume that would make it much more complicated structure wise...

    Metacarpals. If you want to sound fancy, call the "wing fingers" metacarpals (the ones that attach to the "top bone") and phalanges if there's a second bone farther away from the top of the wing. But only if you want to sound like some smarty pants. Signed, Mr. Smarty Pants

    ps. dog dont want it back she wants a new one. ( I spoil her )
