I pretty much finished hand placing feathers. alphas are still placeholder and I imagine there will be a lot more variation in feather types.
Started working on wings, alpha here is placeholder. I'm making sure all planes are placed nicely (as you san see they are not). I added nictitating membrane, teeth and mouth inside.
Concept for colors. I referenced Kori bustard pretty heavily. It is an animal of similar size, living in similar environment and it's color scheme while natural is still striking.

The winter break is over, but it will be some more time until I will do something new. Here are 2h busts I did in zbrush last year.
I have winter break now and wanted to do something different and work on my digital painting skills. So 50 heads challenge. The first head:
Most people would do it in After Effects or Photoshop, but I have little experience in first and animating in second is clunky.
So I projected painted layers on planes, spread them apart, animated camera and rendered. All in blender! What an amazing software.
