Some kind of Fantasy Bird

[KajitiSouls]

It was a day after a 12 hour college day (including Senior Design!), and I was dead tired. I didn't want to fall asleep in the upcoming evening class, so I decided that I would distract myself to stay awake by drawing something. This is the result.

Spoiler

Considering that I did this without any references (unless you count from 2 weeks ago), I'd say it turned out pretty good. Except the legs. Eww.

It's not horrible, but allow me to make a suggestion in which you study how wings work, the shape thereof, and feathers ^_^~

I love birds/phoenixes/etc..as if that wasn't obvious

The tail feathers and the crown were me breaking reality. Otherwise, I have no idea what you're talking about, because we all have opinions, and I certainly don't have yours, other than "it's not horrible, [but it sucks anyways]."

She means that the wings are a little strange and different from how they really work. I don't really know how to say that, but yours lack a little of the "freedom" the shape and feathers give to the wings, it's something free, instead of having such a fixed shape.

Try something like this, sorry for not being so clear, i'm on the other comp and only got a mouse. :S

Oic. Yeah, the pose I selected does not do freedom much justice. There are a couple real life examples where the wings really do look like that though, but it's not much of an excuse in this case.

Thanks for the criticism.

Ho-oh?

I was thinking non fiery Moltres, because Moltres has wings like that, but Ho-Oh works too.
