Here’s white star and he’s also a peacock! But he’s albino
Haven’t quite nailed what I’m looking for with his design but we’re getting there
#he’s pretty buff for a peacock(similarly to black star)#as he sort of descends into madness he sharpens his beak and talons#black stars mother is an unknown peahen and he was had mostly to carry on the legacy#It was said that when he attacked it was like a star fell out of the sky directly on top of you#that’s why some of the villages around where the star clan used to frequent kept spikes on their roofs. Not that it stopped anything.#lso those same areas the cry of a peacock is considered a scary thing.#not that a majority of star clan was peafowl they just had a reputation due to white star#oftentimes they weren’t actually ever seen#A peacocks tail feather was one of their calling cards when they were still active#(Kinda funny since black*star likes to give his friends a tail feather sometimes#tsubaki has one tucked by the base of her tail herself (a gift from their early partnership she’s still hanging onto)#mifune actually has a blood splattered one from their last fight#white star had actually propositioned him to join the clan and gave him a feather as a sort of safe passage through the territory#mifune never joined but they occasionally would cross paths#white star was fascinated with the fox who didn’t eat meat and mifune found himself fascinated with the peacock that did#both pure white animals#pure white or pure black animals are seen as a omen in some areas#meaning they’ll either grow up to do great good or great evils#black star doesn’t remember his mother or his father#he was found near his mothers body when the star clan was wiped out#still had eggshells around him#soul eater#soul eater au

maybe it's my lack of sleep talking but I sense the reason I'm having easier time with prompts this year is because I'm also very use to drawing hk stuff
I outta try mix things up a little more and practice other stuff but bugs are holding my motivation quite tightly and not sharing enough XD

More of the Alternate Form Project! This is Berardius, a giant sky whale! He is specifically a Baird's beaked whale except much bigger and flying high in the sky instead of diving deep into the ocean

the sun mourns in vain for the white-throated rail: a comic about disability and the unwanted able-bodied grief for past selves.
[IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Page 1: The sun holds a white-throated rail, a bird with a red head, a gray body, and a white throat, in its hands. The sun speaks in a tone represented as sorrowful pity through a drippy speech bubble.
Sun: Looking at you makes me sad!
Rail: What?
Page 2:
Sun: Looking at you makes me sad!
The sun stands with a hand clutching its face.
Sun: How miserable it must be to be flightless! Don’t you yearn for the skies? Don’t you wake up grieving you’re still on land?
Page 3: The white-throated rail looks down in frustration in the hand of the sun.
Sun: (speaking off screen) I’d simply perish if I were you!
The rail speaks, looking down. Pink flowers bloom towards the bottom of the page, petals and pollen blowing in the wind.
Rail: Why do you put your words in my beak and your grief in my feathers? Am I not beautiful?
Page 4: The bone of a white-throated rail is positioned against a colorful galaxy dotted with flecks of stars.
Rail: Am I not adaptability in action? Am I not evolution in motion? Do you mourn the days you weren’t a star? Do you mourn when the sky was cold, how unbearably hot you must burn to keep embracing it every day?
Page 5: The sun looks at the viewer.
Sun: Why would I? That was then, this is now. I am content to be in this state.
Page 6: The rail looks up at the sun off-screen.
Rail: Well…So am I.

While I was out in search for photos, three waxwings sat on this treetop. By the time I could take a photo only this one stayed. I took this photo in my home in Quebec during the month of May 2022.

Pegasus Masterpost
Here's a little guide to the main classes of pegasi in the Sky Cowboys world!
Sky Cowboys pegasi generally follow these "rules" -
They have beaks - most are similar to raptor or seabird beaks. Used for opening nuts and snapping up small prey. They do still graze on long-stalk grasses.
Coat colors stay within the equine range, but feathers can be any color.
They have horse-like brains and so are trainable similarly to horses.
They cannot speak like some birds can.
The standard flight range per day is 150 miles. It's called a "hop".
Broadwing Pegasi
These are the main workhorses of the world. They're hardy, agile, and tend to have solid temperaments. Most pilots fly these for all sorts of jobs and have been bred into many unique breeds.
Quick visual - Quarter horses or mustangs with eagle or kite wings.

Longwing Pegasi
Longwings have as much attitude as they do wing surface, but they make up for it with sheer endurance. These pegasi can stay aloft for weeks, diving into the sea for fish or ocean plants to eat.
Quick visual - Thoroughbreds or arabians with seabird wings.

Shortwing Pegasi
Calm and huggable, shortwings are the draft horses of the Sky Cowboys world. These are flightless pegasi (since their wings are so small), but are still very useful on the ground like for all sorts of things from riding to pulling wagons to working in farm fields.
Shortwings tend to have colorful/fancy plumage.
Quick visual - Percherons or clydesdales with songbird wings.

Scrapwings
These little guys are feral - no one has really domesticated them. Partly because they're difficult to work with and partially because no one really sees a point. They're all-around too small to be useful and tend to just get into stuff. At least they're cute!
Quick visual - Zebra/quagga or donkey with dodo wings.

And there you have it! What would your SC pegasus look like?
If you want to learn more about my pegasi, I have an art/lore book on Kickstarter! Also there's lots here on my blog, it's just not as organized :)

-{{Went out to search for ancient bones earlier, I'll try to upload a photo I took of an animal I saw along the way in a bit. It was nice, and Polo got what they needed for some research. Wish I could go out again but my head hurts. Maybe I'll get back to exploring later. For now, I'm resting in the Space Anomaly. And now here's Nada, I'm guessing they're gonna tell me that I shouldn't looking at my datapad's screen when I have a headache. You know, Nada, your face is a screen so I'm technically still — kzzt —}}-
