So, I understand that changing the dragon art is a big deal, lots of work on the artists, et cetera, but I personally feel we should get the current dragons corrected before we get another breed. But enough jibber jabber, on to my main point...
NOCTURNES WINGS ARE SQUISHY, AND FORCED INTO ITS LITTLE BOX. IF THEY WERE ACTUALLY FLYING IN THESE POSES, THEY WOULD PROBABLY WE HURTLING TOWARDS THE GROUND!
"pants" Okay, hear me out on this one. Imagine how the nocturne flaps its wing:

Huh? Why is one up and one down???? Why is its belly to the side, and its face facing (lol) forward??
See? Its not right!
Here is a terrible example of how I think they should look:

(sorry for Paint)
Of course, It would take forever to change them, I understand, im not demanding anything, not at all, but at the moment, this is whats keeping me from liking my Noc Nocs. :(
Any thoughts? Agree?

not trying to be rude but theres no delicate way to put that you display a clear lack of understanding of how aerial acrobatics and maneuvering works. winged things absolutely do turn and gyrate midair, sometimes one wing nearly completely tucked in and the other out, etc etc.

the noct is fine how he is
Personally I think the artists attempted to give the breeds a more dynamic pose than other they've done in the past. The way I see the female nocturne, is she's banking to turn while the male is about to do a barrel roll or some type of areial stunt.
They won't change this for the same reason they've not fixed other errors in other breeds (such as the male PC's extra large wing)--it makes all the skins/accents for the breed no longer useable.

I don't see anything anatomically wrong with nocturne wings.
That's not to say there's no anatomy issues whatsoever in nocturnes or any other breeds, but either way no support for changing existing artwork.

The nocturnes' wings are in anatomically plausible positions. The female is turning, and her face is facing forward while her body is sideways because her neck is long enough for that to be possible. An owl could do the same thing (I have no idea how their necks work, but its creepy.) I have no comments on the male noc, but it doesn't look not possible to me, just some sort of odd aerial move. As though they're both in a fancy flying celebratory dance or something.
Edit: That nocturne lass is absolutely gorgeous, by the way. Congrats on having her.

It is regarded as unwise to harvest claws of a kamaitachi. These weasels travel in family units, and the survivors are known to hunt collectors down.

No support.
The anatomy looks fine.
The pose won't look wonky once you start to think of it as a movement instead of a static pose.
no support, a. because the wings make sense how they are and b. even if they didn't it would quite frankly be a pain to do and would ultimately lead to wasted effort that could have been spent on new apparel/breeds/genes what have you :c

If you think those look boxed in you need to take a look at Skydancer wings. These things are fine, no support.
