Im sorry, I think he looks awesome with wings unfolded, but it just seems to make not very much sense

Eh, it looks ridiculous when Pichu grabs Bowser or when anyone grabs a giant character, but that worked out fine in Brawl and Melee.

Bump?

I attempted to sort out some missing shading in Ridleys closest leg and wing bones.

[Alpha Six]

His leg is broken.

[Kirbyfan]

Are you sure it's not just bent at the knee?

[Koopaul]

Maybe if the legs were more like this?

[Kitsu]

It's a somewhat odd way to put one's leg, but it is better.

[Tonberry2k]

If his leg is like that it's almost like he's going to be flexing.

[Koopaul]

Yeah its not perfect... But its an idea.

[ectoBiologist]

That could be part of a taunt or idle action, but not for a general pose.

Moveset Ideas: (mostly based on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j52MlFDbb3U)
B: Fireballs. Fires five balls made of fire out of its mouth
> B: Tail Whip. Whips its tail around, and anyone caught Ridley grabs, slashes/breathes fireballs/hits with tail or whatever before throwing backwards
Up B: Wing of the dragon. Like Pit's Up B, except Ridley hurts anyone that comes onto contact with Ridleys wings
Down B: Wing Shield. Wraps itself in its wings. Any attacks that hit Ridley (hands-on or projectile) causes Ridley to flaps its wings back out quickly, firing back any projectiles and anyone hitting Ridley
Final Smash: Burning Whirlwind (crappy name, sue me.) flies off screen, and reappears on one side of the stage, before flapping its wings frantically, stirring a strong wind to blow everyone and everything towards the opposite side to Ridley. Also, when this is going on, Ridley is firing fireballs at different angles

Any other ideas?

[Raid]

Your moveset seems a bit overpowered, basically because of the down B and the up B (FS is fine, and what about let him shot controllable angle fireballs while in it? just to look better). Down B could not be a counter, or don't have the repel effect. Pit's up b is a great way to back in the stage and a a great manifestation of lazyness/lack of originality of the creators, let just Pit have this.
Quick Idea- Wind Pression: Ridley open wide his wings and swing then tightly, going up, doing damage at contact and having an air push behavior below him, like Mr.G&W air up a, but stronger.

I like your idea for the Up B, and for the down B I couldn't think what to do. Anyone else got any ideas?
