#alien bird

Okay so I cant keep this any longer. I have a whole world with these alien birds and Imma share some of it

.

Basically four tribes of birds, all different and based on real birds cuz why not (yes, wof is a big inspo for this)

Tribes:

Sunpeaks (fun fact! Royals have two antenna-like tail feathers with fluffy tips)

Cometlakes (fun fact! They have whisker-like feathers and glowing antennas. Can be any amount)

Mooncaves (fun fact! Have a thin layer of fluff feathers, imagine a dandylion and u have it. They also molt into winter coats which are white)

Starwoods (fun fact! Pretty much like owls. Their head(eye?) kinda works like a clam)

"Pure bloods" have full tribe-names to tell what tribe they are from. But if there's a hybrid, they will take the first part of a tribe-name from a tribe that they resemble the most and and the second half is whatever's left.

For example: my oc Mosquito, she mostly looks like a Starwood but has some Cometlake aspects. So she would be a Starlake.

I still have not created a map for these fellas. Maybe someday in the future...

This week's best-of daily sketchbook compilation is going to be split into two posts.

For this first and second one, here's a composition idea for Hylic's "insert new protagonist name here", some of developing Somsnosa's Wjk with vulturine guineafowl shaped neck feathers, and taking a stab at Blerol. The third pic's miscellaneous.
