Title: Avians
Post by: Puncia on August 07, 2011, 03:29:43 AM
I suspect there are very few of us as well.

Edit:
While I've changed my fursona some since I started this topic, there are still some minor elements that are avian.

G'day everyone  ^_^


I love parrots and like to play around with them while drawing because they allow me to use so many colours. My first 'fursona' was of a pidgeon.. a secret agent pidgeon..! and you know, they just look beautiful in general.


Plus, who can say no to the airborne domain??

Yo, any birds still alive and well hanging out? o:

Most of the local furs in my community tend to be mammals with two sharks standing out (which surprised me!). But I don't have many bird friends, and judging by the length of time, I'm curious how many birdies are still active outside just the corvids and gryphons. Avian furs tend to have a super wide diversity of species related or inspired by specific real life species, I've noticed, which makes me pretty happy as a part-time birder. Not to downplay more creative species, of course--I just have a pretty thorough birding fascination! Course, my bird knowledge is pretty limited to the pacific northwest with a couple novel guys tacked on. Vultures and shorebirds are my general favorites because they're pretty chill about hanging around and being obnoxious.

Anyways, my fursona's a bone vulture. Used to be a fairy wren, til I started feeling more of a scavenger than a singer. Plus I love seeing them in real life, with their kabuki faces and their constantly shocked expressions of, "Sir, sir, can I--can I help you?" whenever someone picks them up.

Post by: Ventus Fall on February 06, 2017, 07:36:09 AM
I really love some vulture species (like the White-Backed Vulture). Maybe I'll create a character with that species in mind x3
Originally the bird fursona I was creating was going to be based off of the White-Backed Vulture, instead it turned more owl-y: Reference Sheet Kakusei (http://ventus-fall.deviantart.com/art/ANIMATED-Kakusei-Reference-Sheet-658350545)

Kakusei is based on several owl species, perhaps most noticeable the Barn Owl with its heart-shaped head-disc.

The funny thing is, I've come across Bone Vultures before (well, one other). A person on deviantArt used to have one. And I think if I would get into designing a bird'sona, it maybe would have mixed traits between the White-Backed vulture and the Bone Vulture. Although I would like to keep the simplicity of the White-Backed x3
Title: Re: Avians
Post by: KAIJURoy on February 06, 2017, 07:42:00 PM
Them old world vultures are pretty gorgeous. I've seen a bone vulture on DA, too, but I don't know them personally. Bone vultures are a pretty iconic and easy to remember species (they eat frikkin bones!), so I can feel ya on mixing white backed and bone!

Kakusei is pretty intense though! I haven't seen an animated sheet before, which is pretty BA.

Outside of vultures, though, I definitely have a heart for song birds and shorebirds. Widowbirds are freakin' gorgeous.
