Rough WIP from March 17th, 2024

I've been toying for a while with how to make some of the designs for the many bird constellations more distinct in Starglass Zodiac, and I think going the harpy route for some of them may work, so I tried it with Grus here

idk what his body and clothing are doing and there's a lot going on on his head right now but I'll figure it out. I'm coming back from a 3-day depressive episode so I gotta start somewhere, you know?

I like where this is going at least, I'm not sure if I'll actually finish this particular drawing or just use it as a springboard for his design sheet but we'll see. I'll officially decide what crane he's based on later, but for now I'm leaning towards the red-crowned crane.

Whooping Cranes (Grus americana), family Gruidae, order Gruiformes, Lamar, TX, USA

ENDANGERED.

At one point, there were only about 15-20 wild adults (due mainly to overhunting). Conservation efforts have helped them recover to a population of somewhere over 800 adult birds.
