The second part of the tutorial for making a semi-realistic barn owl plush. As I did not make a pattern for the first one , this is based on the second one . There are in fact a few major differences (especially how the wings were done), so if you would like to know how something was done differently the first time around, please feel free to contact me.

A NOTE: The wings are sort of "locked" into a semi-folded position the way I have them done, so they can only be stretched out part of the way. You can avoid this if you want- they won't be quite as realistic, but they will extend completely instead of only partially.

This tutorial is free to use, provided you follow my rule: please credit me for this, even if you modify it. Other than that, please enjoy!

For more information about using my tutorials and patterns, please see here --> animus-panthera.deviantart.com…

If someone will teach me how to do it, I will also gladly include the pattern for this in a zip file- otherwise, as soon as I get it all finalized and scanned I will upload it as an image in my gallery so that you can download it. I will make a few more minor changes to the pattern to improve a few things that still bother me, so if yours doesn't turn out exactly like this- that's why! Hopefully it will be even better. ^_^

If I left anything out, something is unclear, if you have any questions, etc., please feel free to comment! I appreciate your feedback.

If you want to make a SNOWY OWL instead of a BARN OWL, here are some tips!

Members of the family Tytonidae (i.e. the barn owls) have those lovely heart shaped faces, since they have two separate facial disks. Members of the family Strigidae, like snowies, don't! So you'll have to modify the face a bit. I suggest making the head a bit shorter and rounder, then cutting two circles (instead of two half-hearts). They'll just go around the eyes, with the beak sticking out from the bottom, rather than the beak being in the middle like on a barn owl. I hope that makes sense! A few other little differences, too- snowy owl tails are rounded, instead of the inverted V shape of the barn owl, and their wings are a bit shorter and more rounded, not quite so pointed. Those things will make it look less like a barn owl and more like a snowy. ^_^
