My Hogwarts OC's pet owl, Gylfie. She's an incredibly irritable and aggressive creature to pretty much everyone except Red. However Red has plenty of scars on his hands from back when the owl hated him too. It took him three years to finally have a bond with her, she was pretty stubborn and hard to please. She doesn't like other owls and is incredibly attention-seeking, she'll often peck if she feels like she's being ignored.
She's a brown wood owl, if you're interested in species. I felt like drawing her, and I;d been wanting to draw an owl again for a long time. I'd originally planned to re-draw Hedwig, but I felt that Gylfie needed some love, so here we are. Her markings are a pain in the butt to get down. I drew the lineart at 2am yesterday before running off to services and nearly flooding the whole upstairs of my house in a 4am terror scene. Oh it was an insane night. I may make a journal telling the whole story after my exams. This drawing is a mere result of procrastination. It shan't happen again......I hope.
I'm not very good at drawing owls, so I'm trying to practise. The eyes really bug me and so do the feet. But I wish to improve. So I'm cool with you critiquing this if you feel like you could spare the time. I probably won't re-do it, though, it was A LOT of effort Those feathers.....are horrible D: *lazy*
I still need to do revision tonight so I'll stop rambling. Stock: [link]§ion=&global=1&q=night+premade+background#/d37dnkc I also stalked a few pictures of owls on Google images for rough references: [link][link] Also used [link] with kind permission of
What an amazing art piece. I guess this is digital art? Am I not correct? But anyway let's not care about how I think, let's get on, on how it looks!
Well the background is absolutely fascinating! How you made it look realistic with the fireflies and the moon and yes, the shadows the trees showing out. Realistic Paintings and Digital Art brighten up my world!
I must say that the wings are far much too wide and should be thinner but other then that, the rest of your deviation is fine and good improvement!
I am most glad to look to your future artworks and pieces so Keep It Up!
I really like this! I love the colors you used; they blend very well! The only little thing that bothers me is it's right claw. I probably couldn't draw it any better, but It just looks a little bit odd. Other than that, I really like this picture! I also liked the background you used for this. It's very mystifying to me. The pose of the owl is very good, also. It's like the perfect snapshot I've ever seen! The shining firefly things around it also add some more mystifying effect to the whole picture, just like the background. I'm defenitely going into my favorites, no doubt!
