Illness

I'm afraid I'm quite ill. I'll bounce back in no time I'm sure, but... Right now I just want to go back to sleep.

Splash of Not Color

 

Sometimes there is too much going on and you need a nice splash of gray to help you calm down and relax. Just enjoy some simple relaxation without too much clutter.

The contrast between the gray chicken and hyper-saturated chaos in the background really stimulates the mind.

Music

Hey, listen up. This one's listening to music.

That's all I've got

14 Years of Chicken Maker

Everyone! It's Saint Patrick's Day and more importantly the anniversary of ChickenMaker.net

In the past year I did a few things but I absolutely did not make a coffee table book like I arbitrarily threw out last year. I'll set a more realistic expectation, like a pamphlet, for this year.

 Let's run through the annual throwback and enjoy these green variants. Special mention to Green Vines which is obviously already green.

Hatching is full of expectations

The flair of a hyper-stylized Silhouette Kill is barely even violent

The "Fantasy Sticker" series was actually finished this year, but not with Jester.

Across Space and Space was a very color focused piece so making it just green was hard

Doing a twitter art prompt thing was fun, and this Candlelit Coven was my favorite part.

I was having fun with this and with piercing green pupils these are even Better Eyes

Mecha-Huhn

During the meteor shower a lone fowl escaped its coup and narrowly avoided the crash landing of a mysterious metal bird.In an instant the rooster's mind was connected to the vast knowledge of space and it achieve sentience. But will he truly be able to control the Mecha-Huhn and protect the Earth?

Mysterious robots deserve random poorly translated half German names. Of course by the end of the story it would surely have become the Mecha-Gebratenes-Huhnchen-Kaiser or something

Colored

 

This is adorable. The large head and small simple body come together to create a more juvenile form. Please understand that the roundness and incomplete coloring makes it resemble a child's drawing. All of that is to say this is cute.

Bird Life

This is a throw back? I was trying to do it with more of the reckless abandon that I had when this site had things like me creating 8 Chickens in 1 Hour. While this is below my usual arbitrary standards I think this is still too thought out for me to recapture this energy.

Field of Gray

 

Fields of Gray spread out under the wandering fowl's feet, while the gray clouds upon the gray sky hung overhead.

Part of the ongoing "2022" Monochrome Series. Just one more to finish out the rainbow. Though I guess actual grayscale wasn't really part of a rainbow.

Orange Shade

As light came through the darkness the bird's striking figure was the only thing that could be seen.

Continuing the monochrome series.
