A Day of Downtime

I'm taking a day off, because I'm lazy and if I overdo my animatic-making I'll hate my life. That would be a shame. My life is an important part of my life y'know.

I guess this sort of counts as work? I made a little fan character of my friend Emma's work. And I tried to mimic her style. I think I have a tendency to make things too angular so it doesn't look quite like her characters, who are more rounded... but it was an attempt all the same. This one's a small girl pidgeon loosely based on a Lucerne Gold Collar pidgeon. She's called... *drumroll*... Beige!



Beige is quite a friendly but meek little pidgeon and this often means she doesn't make it to the food before other, less fussy pidgeons get to it. So most of her daily life is devoted to looking for food in less obvious (and occassionally downright stupid and/or dangerous) places. And preening herself. Because clean feathers are functional feathers!... Not that it would do her much good, because she's also crap at flying. Ah well.
