"I'm the master pretender/I'm wearing his face/I'm wearing his ring/All hail the king" Been really Dragon Age lately so I whipped up this Solas/Fen'Harel sketch.

Draft for an icon (?)

A Draw-This-In-Your-Style challenge from @blackseafoam! This was a really fun challenge because while I often draw canines, I probably wouldn't have thought tp draw something like this. It was fun to add elements of the original and what I would call my style

Some birds I painted today :D

Two sloths for my coworker and friend who's leaving the museum

Inktober 13: Harpy Eagle The harpy eagle is native to the tropical forests of the Americas, is the largest and most powerful bird of prey in the Americas, and one of the largest eagles in the world

Inktober 12: Philippine Eagle. The largest eagle in terms of length and wing surface. Native to the Philippines and their national bird.

Inktober 11: Shrike Not technically a bird of prey, even though it is carnivorous (it's technically a passerine/perching bird). But they're really cool so I wanted to include them. They are well known for catching insects or small vertebrates and impaling the body on thorns, barbed-wire fences, or anywhere with a sharp point. This helps them eat their prey in smaller bits and lets them save it to come back for later.

Inktober 10: Mantling When birds of prey makes a kill, they will hunch and arch their wings over their prey to conceal it from other animals who might want to steal it

[sio-draws]

Inktober 9: Stoop A stoop is when a bird of prey, especially falcons, plunge down at high speeds and ram into their prey and slashing at it with their talons. They might then stoop again to catch their prey midair or, as is often the case, let it fall to the ground and pick it off then.

Something to give to people when they bother you Inspired by that one crow that went up to some people to say "F U" (https://youtu.be/ifCmvLNQl3s)

Inktober 8: Turkey Vulture. Again. I love their faces. I love everything about them. To cool their feet, they'll often defecate on them. And to defend themselves, they'll projectile vomit. They lack vocal organs like other birds so they can only grunt and hiss. They're so cool.

Inktober 7: Great Horned Owl in an interesting shape

Inktober 6: Turkey Vulture done completely in ballpoint

[sio-draws]

Inktober Day 5: Black Vulture. Not as common as the Turkey Vulture, which can be found all over North America, the Black Vulture can mostly be found in the southeast US. The way you can distinguish a vulture soaring in the air vs another bird of prey is their distinct V shape in their wings and their often lack of any flapping. To distinguish a turkey vulture and a black vulture, look for the black vulture's distinct "fingers": their white primaries (compared to the turkey vulture which has no distinct coloring in their feathers).

Inktober Day 4: A quick little inktober with highlighters of a turkey vulture because I'm with friends :>

Inktober Day 3: Gyrfalcon The largest falcon species. Typically found in northern tundras and mountains.
