Originally I was doing the feet/toes with the base too but holy shit that was so fiddly no way man. So I cut her feet off and I'm gonna do each toe on its own.

Making a swamphen out of clay, first pass in the oven already got burnt ;~; not too big of a deal because I'll be painting anyway, but I'll need to be extra careful when I bake it again with the toes/wings/tail (which are each being done separately)

Doing realistic takes on HTTYD dragons has been a thing thanks to the live action movie, so I wanted to add my spin on things. Here's my terrible terror! A kleptoparasitic pest who bullies larger dragons for their food. Good starter dragon for the kiddoes.
A drawing of a terrible terror, a small dragon from the how to train your dragon franchise. It is green with a pale underbelly and dullish yellow/brown wings. It has large orange eyes an brown spikes running down it's back and tail, ending in a spade. It has a small nasal horn, and a larger ridged horn sprouting from behind the eye. It it depicted on a light brown background with a slightly darker silhouette of Hiccup from HTTYD behind it. The dragon's back only comes up to his shin, and it's wings which are reaching straight upwards only reach as far as his navel. There is text in the upper left corner which reads as follows: Terrible Terror. Small, social dragons found around coasts. They may be small, but make up for that in numbers. Fierce and stubborn kleptoparasites, they mob larger and attempt to force them to regurgitate their previous meal. On their own, they are skittish and weak. Due to their social tendencies they tame quite easily. Intelligent and very food motivated, they can be trained to perform a variety of tricks.

I went to Lake Gwellup on sunday to see the rainbow bee-eaters, and while they certainly delivered the exciting find was this juvenile pallid cuckoo! My first time ever seeing a cuckoo!!! I'm hoping to go in the morning later this week for better RBE photos, hopefully the cuckoo is still around.
A photo of a pallid cuckoo sitting on a bare tree branch in front of an empty blue sky. The cuckoo is mostly in shadow, but you can make out it's mottled brown and white plumage.A pallid cuckoo sitting on a fence post in front of bushland. The cuckoo's body is facing away from the camera while the head is turned slightly towards it. Its tail is slightly fanned out, displaying the banded pattern on the edge of each feather.

Fun little shot of a couple of rainbow lorikeets from a couple months back. Real ones know the lower lori is making that face because it just took a shit 👍
A photo of two rainbow lorikeets on a dead tree branch, with the moon out of focus between the two birds. They are parrots with orange chests, blue undersides and heads, and green wings. One of them has it's beak open.

Ok after only like two posts to bsky I can already say I love the alt text feature so much more. I never really got the hang of using it on twitter, but its so much more intuitive and easy to add here.

Another Primeval Age piece, simple little one of my tapejara collecting rocks on the beach.
A drawing depicting a pale yellow tapejara, a type of pterosaur, with macaw-like facial markings. It is standing on a beach collecting rocks. Behind it are rocks with mussels and barnacles, and the ocean. In the distance out in the water is a rocky outcropping with animals flying around it, presumably other pterosaurs.

Cliff jumper. Piece for Primeval Age.
A drawing depicting utahraptor, a type of predatory dinosaur, jumping down from some rocky red cliffs. The utahraptor is depicted from below, showing the sun above with circling vultures. There is a small lizard in the bottom right corner which the utahraptor is implied to be jumping after.
