It's been a few weeks since I've been able to sit down and draw, and I've got a commission or two to knock out this week. Here's a warmup sketch, with the first in a design of "uplilfted" wildlife that exist in Kaye's universe. Somewhere between anthro and feral, these kakapos exist in a world where instead of being hunted to near-extinction, they instead became an important resource to farm.
This is just design 1, based on a breed of fancy pigeon with extremely long legs for the sake of quasi-anthropomorphization. Doesn't actually look much like a kakapo yet. Still workin' that part out!
