Description
SIA is hosting an art contest, so of course I had to join because competition is fun and so are challenges.I happen to be mostly out of space again, I don't know why, I haven't done anything to take up space it just happened
So I can't animate
Or post on YT, since I'd be using what I use to animate to make the video
So it's here
But aside from that, I had to combine a tiger and a hawk, so this is how I did that, and blue was the color I had to use. It may look a bit purple, I swear it's all blue, I checked.
The background could have been normal colors
I decided it would look weird with the blue tiger hawks
So it's all blue
I had fun getting to mess with the design and stuff. I liked getting to work with something that wasn't simple at all, and the combination of tigers and hawks was really good for a design that I'd like.
I didn't base it off of any specific type of hawk, I just got some references and went with what I got from those, but I did try to make the tiger stripes look more like the stripes on the feathers of some of the types I saw.
Overall pretty fun to draw. I'm happy I got the chance.
I didn't bother with shading because I figured it looked pretty good how it was, and my hands are getting really tired, I've been on my phone for a while now.
This took an hour and 32 minutes. Also 19 seconds.
And here's what I made up for the tiger hawks while I was drawing this:
The feathers on the back of their heads stand up while they are resting or intimidated, to make them appear larger and as more of a threat. Their claws aren't retractable, and are more like talons.
Males are smaller and darker, and their colors barely change throughout their life, just getting a bit lighter, meanwhile females are larger and lighter, starting off darker and getting lighter as they mature.
Females are known to stay with the mother until their second litter, helping her out as she helps them with their first litter. Males are known to very rarely stay, and typically only help with hunting and keeping other males away. These are much calmer than those that leave, and act with much less aggression.
They'll eat basically anything that moves. This includes any of it's own species that may be attacking it, if it's hungry enough.
There's more but I think that's enough for now.
Something I would like to note is that these things are capable of being pets.
You could have these giant birdcats, as pets. Nobody could stop you. You'd have to train it and feed it and stuff, and find it yourself, but all they can do is advise against it. As long as you're just keeping it as a pet and keeping care of it correctly and stuff, and you don't train it to hurt anybody or anything, you're good to go.
Why?
Idk man.
Birdcat.
