Recently I was able to attain some more concept paintings (digital) from
+Maria Owens, a friend of mine who is far better at art than I...
This is the result of my describing an Ouhlktoo to her:
 |
| She originally did a sketch similar to this on paper as I described the creature's head to her . . . then she came back to me a couple of weeks later with this digital version xD |
 |
| Then she moved into a full creature sketch :] |
I think she captured the potentially sinister nature of the Ouhlktoo
perfectly. And I can totally see a creature sixteen feet tall having a
wingspan of that size
(anyone who knows bird anatomy and stuff like that feel free to correct my ignorance ;) . . . also, I really like the way she got the antlers to fit on its head - I've tried to sketch this thing dozens of times and could never quite get it to look right, even with some references to work from :P :]
 |
| I am amazed, impressed, and inspired by her attention to anatomy even though it's just a made up critter :) |
And then she surprised me with a really epic, full size, rendered version!!! xD
 |
| Epic |
Great stuff, right? Much gratitude to
+Maria Owens for her generous contribution to my odd ideas ;P :]

Yup, Maria is really a fantastic artist - though she specializes in illustrations :)
