New 3D model- WIP sneak peek! (Patreon)

A little something I'm currently working on. I wanted to make an avian character to learn and test out ideas for how to make a feathered character. I've got a pretty decent handle on fur, and basic scales were pretty easy, so if I can also comfortably make feathers I'll have the vast majority of the furry fandom covered and will be able to make most anything asked of me. Beyond that, my only real major hurdle is figuring out how to animate long hair. But, one thing at a time!I'm posting this little WIP because  I might not get to get much further before other things take my attention away, I've got to do the sketches for this month still (Sorry guys, this model's been distacting me!) and I'll have to build a model for that auction real soon, so there's a good chance this'll be set aside for a bit.  But I got her modelled, textured and rigged, damn near finished in just a few days- definitely feeling good about that!I still need to add in her filler fluff, she's bald except for the main feathers that really stand out, but I think should just be able to use the particle system for that, like with fur, and I'm liking how the feathers we do have are looking so far... Also need to build in her facial expressions, do some tweaks to stuff here and there, so there's still some work to do but all in all I'm excited about how she's turning out so far.Getting those feet working was a real pain in the butt, and I have a feeling it's going to be tricky animating around them- that back toe really throws a wrench in otherwise standard movements- but I think I've got it working fairly well and I'm excited to show her in motion soon as I can!Anyway, just a lil' WIP. I hope y'all are liking her so far, and as always I'd love to hear your thoughts!
