Description
Re-upload.Everybody is Kung Fu Fighting, and the ducks want in on the fun!
Still in Kung Fu Panda mood, still just trying new things, still trying to avoid fanart. So I made this a little character design practice at least.
Anyway, two mandarin ducks, a male and a female. I'm a little surprised we haven't seen one of those in KFP yet, they are really beautiful animals. Took a few liberties in the coloration, though.
And I shall name them Master Shui and Bo!

Oh hey! So sorry, I must have somehow overlooked your question. But I'm afraid I don't like to lend my characters to random strangers anyway. I'm sure you can come up with your own, though.

Hi, I have plans for the future to write a Kung Fu Panda fanfiction on the site fanfiction.net, and I want to use your characters, if you let, of course.

Could I please act what kind of image-editing program you use to get such high-resolution end-products?

This pic has instantly convinced me that there should be mandarin ducks in KFP.
And I hadn't even heard of mandarin ducks until now.

Thank you!
The peacock was awesome of course (I actually have art of him, too, on my old account. XD) But KFP definitely needs more birdies!

Interesting point of fact, Kung Fu is actually not a martial art. It's a philosophic concept roughly meaning "achieving excellence in a chosen activity that requires a cultivation of skill." In that sense, you don't *know* Kung Fu, you *are* kung fu.

I especially like the really angry duck coming down with a spear. Truth be told, I think Mandarin ducks are rather peaceful birds--I can't picture them attacking like this in real life.

But they are based on Kung Fu, so that doesn't make much sense...
