Silver Songbird Morph Illustration

I thought I would post this new project I’m working with.  This illustration was recently done for ‘The Eye’ a fanzine of the role playing game, Eclipse Phase.  Designing a mechanical bird was an interesting challenge and immediately brought on fond memories of the mechanical owl in the movie:  Clash of the Titans. I had to think about the parts of the bird, how they would move, the range of movement and the final question of : “Could this thing possibly fly?”  I’m not so sure about my bird yet but I hope she can at least glide.

Though the bird has flat color, I hope to soon tackle a different coloring style that gives her a more 3D appearance.  But this is  where she is for now.
