Ahem. I used to be an embroidery digitizer. One of the designs I found myself doing OVER and OVER was spread eagle wings. If Virus did his anatomy he should know two things: 1. Three rows of feathers, their counts, relative proportions and rigging aren't a copyrightable work or a distinctive style but a reflection of basic anatomy. Designers working independently of one another are necessarily going to create VERY similar designs. 2. With all due respect to Virus, this isn't a complicated enough prop to make ripping off someone else's work worth it -- compared, say, to the incident a few years back where subdivided versions of Posette's hands ended up on a new female figure. If I guess correctly Virus probably spent more time rigging the joints than pasting, scaling and positioning feather copies on a wing. Let me reiterate that I'm not trashing Virus' wings (although it's a pity he didn't transmap them). And we will see wireframe renders of Jessie's soon enough to resolve this. I was here to remember Anton's side-by-side comparison of key vertices in the hand wireframes.
