awesome concept! 
but as long as the wings curve a bit like a cut open tube, don’t you think you could get away with low res in up-down over wing?
problem with your design will be animation though it seems. how will the featherwork spread when he moves the wing limbs?
normally the feathers fan and you’d need separate feathers for that but maybe you can make a shabby sort of look where the featherbody splits at each limb? like shabby and dirty feathers that aren’t taken good care of and don’t fan individually?
would look dirty and scary while save you polys and bones :V7
good luck!

dude rather than modeling each feather, model many sheets that fit into the wing bone structure and then texture some feathers with alpha channels, so they look modeled in… but you’ll also have to add normals to the feathers so they look like they pop out… that will be tricky… i know mudbox loads the texture so you can paint normal data, where you know the texture will be and where the alpha wont… be.
it won’t be tooooo incredibly hard, but you’ll have to model several feather sets… so the feathers have some variety… kind of like sprites…

[color=white]Special thanks to erik_j and blindsyte who gave really useful tips that solved my dilemma. Thanks so much.[/color]
[color=white]The wings which was giving me headaches have finally made its way up with these help.[/color]
[color=white]I know they are by no means perfect but its time to take a break here as time is falling short for me.[/color]
[color=white]Still theres much more room for other adjustments. And I hope that I can finish them in time![/color]

Those wings look awesome! I noticed in your concept drawing that wings seemed to spread from an upper set of arms. It would look pretty sweet if you carried the biceps into the wings a bit more, as well as making the feathers at the tips a little longer than the other feathers imo. Other than that its very impressive!!
