I drew this one upsidedown because this site needed a little more whimsy. Seemed off to present it right side up so I did the playing card style illustration and rotated it around so you can see it both ways. I'm a bit too competent at this (drawing chickens in MS Paint) so it isn't really distorted much at all? https://www.chickenmaker.net/2026/07/upsidedown.html

Black and white is tough, as the young people say. Is that what the young people say? It's so hard to keep track. This one is definitely a tough guy though. https://www.chickenmaker.net/2026/06/tough.html

I like the shape tool and I almost never use it because curves are one of the top things in art, and if I'm not doing curves I'm usually doing strong 90 degree angles. Straight lines just give the whole thing a sort of polygonal look, even though it is obviously a 2D Raster image.

For some reason I imagine the sound of this chicken chorus as a barbershop quartet, but that is not the sound that a trio of chickens makes at all. They would just be squawking. In my research, which it may surprise you is a regular part of making this fine artwork, I did see the phrase chorus of gakels, but that's a frustrated hen sound and these punks are clearly having the time of their lives. Thank you, as always, to my Patreon supporters for supporting this questionable project.

Less than pixel-perfect. This chicken has some extra jaggies. https://www.chickenmaker.net/2026/06/jaggies.html

Usually when there are random binary numbers on this site they spell Chicken or Cluck, but these ones (11010101001110101010011101) are literally just meaningless https://www.chickenmaker.net/2026/06/data.html

Really just can't be bothered to draw the rest of the chicken so let's get this month started with a nice healthy zoom. That sure is an eye, and maybe an earlobe. Bit of beak. I don't think you should see any comb from this perspective?  https://www.chickenmaker.net/2026/06/healthy-zoom.html

This one has angles instead of curves. You may think this would make it more extreme, but it isn't pointy. It's just blocky
