A rare photo of the elusive Voodukoocoo bird

And here is the bird feathered and flocked. Took most of the day and there are tiny feather trimmings everywhere, LOL. I have no idea what kind of bird this is, just a fantasy bird of some kind.




I just had to take a picture of my work area with feathers everywhere. When I took this, I thought it can't get any worse. But it got a lot worse!! In fact looking at this picture now, it looks pretty damn tidy compared to later. I just didn't bother to take another picture of it, LOL.

    Oh, wow! This bird is absolutely fantastic!!! Feathers make a lot of mess always.;) But I do think there is not much mess on the photo you showed Kristy. ;)

    Cute little fellow...very unique coloration. I like the plumage. Feathers are always a mess to work with.

    Since childhood I dreamt of having a Voodukoocoo bird! Now that I know, how he looks like, I'd love to have him even more! LOL
    I think the witch mouse made a very strong sleeping potion - and he inhaled way toooooooo much...

    Wow I didn't have to wait long huh :-)

    He is awesome. I love how you've finished him off. Not too fluffy and just the right amount of feathers.

    Well done...he really is fantastic and I love the name lol

    Kristy- I really didn't think I would love it as much with the feathers, but now I have to take it back because the feathers totally make the bird- I am in love with him/her. Ira is going to be so thrilled when he/she flies to her home! ♥

    Thanks guys!
    Susan, I was given some specific colors to work with. Two colors mentioned were olive green and pumpkin orange. I thought I'd use those two together since it was to be a fantasy bird.

    Margaret, I think he looks like a baby because of his over-sized head, LOL.

    Andrea & Catherine, too funny!! That silly name just popped into my head when I was posting the pics late at night. But it can be whatever Ira (or whoever ends up with it) wants it to be :P

    OH damn, I'm slow this morning (no coffee yet). By the time I posted my comment there were three more.

    Thanks so much Jayne and Kim!!

    Ira, he/she can be whatever you want. I'm sure you can come up with a better "species" than I, LOL.

    Kristy. once again after being out of the loop for a spell I come back to find more surprises from you! I love everything! Your little bird is too cute, and of course has your signature facial expression, which makes him even better! While you're doing birds, how about a Phoenix? If he doesn't turn out you can just torch him! LOL!

    Kristy, you really can flock! I had so much trouble just trying to add a tail to a parrot. Another ab fab little friend from Kristy :). You know all your animals will be so loved wherever they go, right? How can anyone resist them?
