Shining Chicken

This chicken shines through the darkness with it's glowing majesty. Yes, the Chicken is just a white silouette, but the light around it makes it seem more mystifying. I mixed a few light effects together to make it's glow, but I'm not sure how it came out. Please tell me what you think of it. ^_^

What I'm pretending I'm trying to say is "Even in the darkest days there are still lights to guide us."

Butler Chicken


He did it. The butler always did it. Anywhozit. You can tell he's a butler from his jacket, vest, bow tie, collared shirt combo. He's definately a Butler. I haven't made one this large in a while. It came out better than I expected. I kind of regret not giving him any props but I couldn't think of any I wanted there anyways.

Mountain!

This is a Mountain! Well, really it's more of a Plateau, but that naming lacks. And yeah, the perspective is awful. The bottom chicken should be smaller than the top one but the real problem is that it seems like a tacked on afterthought, probably because it was a tacked on afterthought.  Still I feel happy with it.

One of These Things

One of these things is not a chicken. I know. You're having a hard time telling which it is. Hint: Check the middle. Now my mind tossed me a vague plot behind this piece. You see the middle one is an Alien, or maybe a Pterydactol. The family of chickens found him and is trying to help them through his tough times... or something.

Chicken In SPACE!

This is a chicken In SPACE! 

I went old style SciFi on this one. Everyone knows you're fine in space as long as you are wearing a bubble on your head. Things like space suits and pressure are completely unimportant. And there's plenty of air in that head bubble so don't worry one bit about that one.

I should have put him sidewards or something though. Seems like a waste of oppurtunity... *changes* Okay it's perfect.

And in case you were unsure. Of course space is purpleish-blue.

Old Man Chickenson

This is old man chickenson. He's got some big glasses and his waddle and comb are fading.  I'm not sure how I determined he was an old man but I'm sure it makes perfect sense somehow.

New Banner


I made a new banner for the top of this site.  Just tossed a few different styles on there and hoped it'd look alright. came out pretty well.

Dual Chicken - Part 2 [Royal Serpent]

Here we come with Part 2 of Dual Chicken. If you want the previous two just use the Dual Chicken tag to find them.
For this part I decided to use two Boring Parts, one before and one after. Also in case it is unclear, and I'm sure it is, the guy in orange is the Detective. Drawing people with a mouse is as hard as I expected, but it came out better than I expected.

Looking at a Bug

Left for a bit but I'm spinning back in here. The chicken is watching in confusion and a spider drops down in front of him. The Spider looks back with it's creepy eyes.

Tired Frank

This is called "Tired Frank." Frank's a chicken smoking a pipe and staring into space. He's obviously exhausted and plans to go to bed soon.

The Field

I've got a nice new one. Did it like I did way back during No Boundaries. I haven't done one like this since MS Paint Classic. Well I suppose I've done some other ones without outlines, but that's not the same. 

Thin Scrawl

This one's a bit of a scrawled mess. It doesn't really capture my usual style but I wanted to try something different. It came out alright, but I don't expect to do it again. That is all

Chicken in Two Clicks

This is called "Chicken in Two Clicks" because I opened paint and made the outline in one click then Filled it with black with another click. I'll admit. Looking at it... All I can think of is a whale for some reason, but imagine it had a couple legs. It could be pretty solid.

Chicken Maker Video!!

Todays release is like a legitimately big deal. Not only was it not made in paint, I'm not even uploading it to this web site. We got a video! I made it in Flash and put it on the YouTube, though now that I look I probably should have just uploaded it here. Now I'm a bit annoyed because YouTube specifically told me that once it was uploaded there I would be able to post it right here without this block of code, but meh.

At any rate it's a series of 5 short animation:
1) Chicken Shuffles about
2) Chicken Tries to fly
3) Chicken RPG Video
4) Chicken War Story
5) Chicken SlideShow (A slideshot isn't really an animation)
6) Chicken Love Story

Here's the link in case embedded videos hate you

Loser-Face

This chicken... Well, he's a loser. You can tell from those loserly eyes he's got. But despite that he's got his own personal passion and he shows that it's alright to be yourself! Because even if he's not some fancy-made chicken he has still got a place here. You don't need to be what you aren't. [<-Symbolism]

Something something something. Non-conformist.[<-Social Commentary]

Kingly

This one is kingly. He's got a purple cloak and a golden crown.  I'll admit that it has got a huge problem, which is of course the posture. It's got a blantantly human build. But you know that might make him more regal. Oh, of course I ought to tell you the defense for the shoulder pads. I like pointless shoulder pads. That's all there is to that.

Walkin'


This one's basically a chicken... who is walking. I hope you follow. I used some perspective and stuff this time, and I don't think it went too poorly.

Experimental Water Chicken




This is the lost chicken. It was among my very first ones. I'll admit it's not very... good. I like him though. He's freaking over the fact that he's a water chicken.

Invis-o-chicken

This is an invisible chicken. It's obviously invisible because it has a white outline, and beyond that the line is dotted.  So this is a very nice one. Sure, I'll admit this one is rather lacking in the technical department, but I feel I made up for it in style.

Dual Chicken - Part One

Here comes the second installment of my Dual Chicken project. The first was the prologue. This part took me a while to do because as I was saying I had lost my knack for this. Of course that's not a real excuse. I'm just lazy. But this part is done and a good bit longer than the last. I am currently planning this to have 4 parts(plus the prologue and epilogue) but there may be more if I can actually manage to draw something I had earlier plans for.

w00t~ 1000 Fans!

I just noticed that I got a comment. A complimentary one. Sure, he was mostly just advertising his own blog, but that's not important. What's important is that I have no idea who he is. Additionally I have a follower who I also don't know. And this obviously somehow means I now have at least a thousand fans.

Also I got it back! This is my personal w00t chicken, made about an hour ago. I got my knack for this back I think.

Cutie

So, what do you think? Is this one a cutie or what. Like a little cute blob. I gave him a spinny looking background so he'd stand out more. I like the little spiky bits. I think he's got a good look about him.

As I said in the last post I don't think I'm up to my standards yet but it's a start if nothing else.

Farmy

Here we go. Back in the swing... sort of. I make a pig and a chicken. They're pretty cute I think. Though of course they're not realistic. The pig's clearly a cartoony pig, and the chicken is... Kind of just a meh.

In all honestly I'm rather sorry to admit that I seem to have lost my touch. I just haven't been able to make a nice chicken lately. I've been trying at it but it's just not working out properly for me.

SNAAAAAAAKE!


Now, I know what you're thinking. "The hell do giant snakes have to do with chickens?" This is of ccourse very simple. 'Tis a Basilisk. Well not a proper one. It's of the giant snake variety that seems popular in the last few years. I'll do one of the Multiegged lizard with a beak variety later.  A Basilisk is a Serpent egg hatched by a chicken(or maybe it's the other way around...) in any case and that's the ticket here. It thinks the chicken is its mommy. =D

Back Like a Guy

Well I'll admit I took a short reprieve from the net, but now I'm back... Like a guy. As you can see this one is in the same style as the Gritty Sharpness, though this one isn't as good. Still he looks like a tough guy.  Gave him a necklace to make him look hipper or something.

Independence Day Special


Ahem. 4th of July special. I can't draw fireworks. Photoshop let me do a good job. Used a filter to unify the image. I think it came out quite nicely. The fireworks were just a picture and I'll admit the beak is lackluster but it looks nice all together.

Like A Buisness Man

This chicken right here is clearly a serious buisness-man. Look at his troubled gaze. Anyways chickens can't really do collars.  At least not in combination with jackets.  I like the way this one came out though I should have put the top back a bit... if that sentence made any sense then good. 

Of course his troubled gaze represents the confusion and what not that is buisness, but that sort of thing isn't good enough for a symbolism tag.

The Master Plan


This is the plan of the site. I don't think it needs to be explained. We're trying very hard to take over the blogo-sphere, which it is my understanding isn't a word real internet folks approve of.

Speed Run STOP!: "DIVE!" and "Just a Chicken"

Well, I finished about 5 minutes ago just in time for Blogger to decide it didn't want to work so it looks like I took longer than half an hour, which is why I'm posting these two together.  Also I ate dinner in the middle, but that was just bad scheduling on my part and is no excuse.


This is DIVE!. I just wanted to try out this effect and I think it came out alright. I might try it again. Work it out nice and slow so the background ones look less terrible.

This is Just a Chicken. Nothing of note.

Speed Run: Devil Flower


This is a devil flower that is dancing and feeds on the souls of deceased chickens! As for the colors. I think they make it look more insane

Speed Run Start: Swishidy


Alright. Time to make up for lost time. Let's see how many I can pump out in the next half hour if I just do it.

Hell yeah this one's awesome. Just look at 'im.
