January 13 - Loopy Birdz

"Are birds free from the chains of the skyway?"

~ Bob Dylan Ballad in Plain D

A balloon concept won't be good for everything.  Loopy Headz focuses on the head and neck area, some things that rely on a body shape would not work without adding that as an element.  A camel for example, or a meerkat

Birds are one of those things that don't really work - relying on wings and having a distinctive beak instead of a smooshy face.  So really we are just talking about a level of willingness to compromise.  

I wasn't every really content with how the wings looked, especially when twisted into the bas.  It was a bit better when I made a bit of a tail feather for them to twist into for the bald eagle.  The wings I like the best though were just loose fitting wing hands (the bottom image).
