But this Is just a re work of an image rendered in Poser and what I used for the base of my Nature Kami a while ago in the Horse challenge. Not sure what you want to call him. Noir Pegasus? Batarang?
I think I have those wings NA. I think I was playing with them on Dawn for a Halloween render last year.

Probably not these they are 2D. Base wash with grain layer then refine, refine, refine, cell shade, and lastly cut out with the pen tool to get rid of the pixel fuzz . They are however also used on my All Hallows Eve image.

Ohhh, from the angle in that render it looked like a set of wings I picked up at Renderosity last year.

Edited to Add: OK, I double-checked, and the wings I was thinking of are Dark Angel Wings by Antje, and they're 2D wings, not 3D. Don't know why I thought they were 3D. ~shakes head~ This old brain isn't quite as sharp as it used to be. ;)

thanks Alisa!

the Qilin is also fantasic NapalmArsenal!
LOL thanks! You are too kind as there's quite a bit of PS going on in there! With the hair and overlay fracts ....... etc. I just don't do very well with the load click and render and keep it in it's pure form.

There is also this guy, but have to re-render him again as there are some wing issues this also uses the custom TB morph making sort of a more slim frame bird like animal. Waiting on the Racing Tack to see if I have any adjustments to make and then finalize the property sets on those for the TB race form.

FYI: I over did using my trackball thumb & typing last 2 weeks during my Nickie grief, then it got worse for trying to do a little bit of post work last night! (got a unicorn/Dawn piece my muse wants me to do) NO more computer 4 a week!! REALLY worried this time it may be permanent ....using 1 finger, left hand... I swear ...if THIS has not taught me to USE Dragon instead of typing, nothing will! So mad at myself!!! (I'm also researching other types of trackballs...and NO I can't use a pen - tried that a few times) arghhh!!! now tendons in this hand - palm - are hurting! :(

Gorgeous. Yes, Arki's wings are extraordinarily beautiful, even if they can be hard to work with. Those particular ones come apart when posed in Studio, more's the pity. They're not supposed to be weight mapped, I think, but they just do not work right in Studio. (The Malaik wings, which were the ones she did just before these work fine.) I still managed to make limited use of them on my Thestrals. But I'd have used them a LOT more if I could have done so and not had them coming apart on me.
