Put Your Best Face Forward




This piece is for May's topic 'Face Forward'.
I found an article about online dating and how the profile pictures people choose to post tend to misrepresent them (in regards to either appearance or personality). So on that note, I decided to illustrate a pigeon that's trying to be fancy by attaching a peacock tail to himself. I thought this was pretty funny, hopefully you do as well :)

  3. i like the concept! wish i could see more 'fancy' peacock tail! maybe more bigger size and colorful tail? and it would be fun if he's on the street or somewhere else with his beautiful outfit! haha.

  4. Such a good idea!
    I agree with Yoojin, maybe place him in a narrative. It would be awesome if he was like waiting at a bar or coffee shop or something. I like how the tail looks a little beat up. It's like he made it himself.

  6. That pigeon has so much attitude! It's great. I think the tail feathers turned out really well. I agree with Yoo Jin, I want more fabulous tail! I feel like a narrative would be interesting with this character, though not necessarily with this illustration. The rise and fall of peacock pigeon.
