Hey dudessup
Cause I've been inactive on here again I figured I'd upload some of the graphics work I've been doing. These are my final designs for that character I had to design for Graphics. Obviously I had other designs, but I ended up sticking with this one as my final. My deadline is tomorrow, so I promise I'll stop drawing birds oh god I've been drawing them so much I think I'm growing feathers.
Not really of course but how freakin' awesome would that be
I gotta fly somewhere bro
Anyway I hope you enjoy! The character is called Congo, after the African congo of course where African Grey Macaws are from. The whole idea with this character is that he lives in Papua New Guinea with all these birds of paradise who bully him because he hasn't got colourful feathers. African Greys aren't native to Papua New Guinea (at least I don't think so, I didn't see that in my research) hence the bullying. He's got a kind of 'eh, whatever' personality but he's quite shy and awkward. He has a best friend that's a female Red Bird of Paradise ( m1.i.pbase.com/o2/87/100387/1/… ) who is a hard ass and stands up for him. I was originally gunna design her for my project too but I ran out of time. Heheh WOOPS
Okay yeah that's it ENJOY

Thank you :'D I went through many possibilities for names before settling with Corvo. It's Italian for crow I think.

AGH, YOU'RE SO WONDERFUL AT DRAWING.
Whenever I try to draw a bird, it just looks.. wrong. XD
You think I could use this pose sheet of yours as a reference when I draw my own avian characters?
And I think you should still make a picture of Congo's friend. It doesn't have to be as... detailed as his, but I'm sure everyone would still like to see her! ^^
