⛰️山海経28: 鸀鳥。六つ首で黄色くて青い鳥。近世になると6本首というより「1首6頭」の姿で描かれがち。あの渋滞ぶりがツバメの巣みたいで好き。 🌊Shanhai jing 28: Chu-niao. A blue bird with a yellow body and six heads. It might be warm and crowded like a swallow’s nest in breeding season. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

Extra small sketches I've never posted here

⛰️山海経27: 当扈。ヒゲで空を飛ぶキジ。頬毛で長距離飛行するのは物理的にかなり大変そうなので、インドショウノガンみたいに求愛ジャンプする鳥だったのではあるまいか。 🌊Shanhai jing 27: Dang-hu. A pheasant that flies with feathers around the ear or neck. That sounds weird, but maybe it was for jumping courtship like Lesser floricans. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

⛰️山海経25: 櫟。瓦礫のレキかと思いきや木へん。クヌギやイチイのことらしいです。黒い模様で首が赤いウズラに似た鳥ってそれはもう普通のウズラでは？（2回目） 🌊Shanhai jing 25: Li, the mythical quail with black patterns and red neck plumage. The description sounds like pretty normal quails… maybe they were kinda mountain quails. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

He is so busy!

⛰️山海経22: 顒。4つ目の人面フクロウ。人面鳥獣だらけの山海経。中でもフクロウ率が高めなのは、元々顔が平面で鳥っぽくないからかもしれない。 🌊Shanhai jing 22: Yong. An owl with a human face, four eyes, and ears. aka the drought bringer. It’s interesting that they’re related to the sun even though most owls are nocturnal. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

Thank u everyone for the support this year 🙏

⛰️山海経20: 灌灌。意外と稀少なハト型の怪鳥。不惑スキルがあるので、いい感じに導いてくれそうな穏やか光属性リョコウバトにしました。 🌊Shanhai jing 20: Guan-guan. A pigeon that coos like human voice. The description says you will never be confused or perplexed when you have their feathers. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

⛰️山海経19: 鶉鳥。鳳凰の一種らしいのですが、字面と中国語発音のチュンチュン感がえらいcuteなのでウズラにしました。ウズラもキジ科なので鳳凰の近縁と言って良かろう。 🌊Shanhai jing 19: Chun-niao, the symbol of the emperor’s ritual tools and clothes. It seems they’re a kind of phoenix, but its kanji, 鶉 means Quail. Their name sounds so cute. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

⛰️山海経15: 䴅。騒がしい6本足カササギ。首の数は特筆されていないのですが、せっかくなので頭も増やしました。3羽集まるとかしましい。 🌊Shanhai jing 15: Fen, the six-legged noisy magpie with a white body and a red tail. The description doesn’t mention their head, so I felt I should add some to let them be noisier. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds

Dang, watching aurora live stream really makes me want to revisit this set one day 🥹 #oldart

Lil Panel... This will also be in my comm opening on the 8th (hopefully if I get more examples made before then) #kastyoureyes #furryart

⛰️山海経1：鸓。あるいは鸓鳥。カササギといえば七夕を連想するので笹尾羽にしました。「火を防ぐ」特性は火災避けのことなんだろうけど、耐火性ボディという解釈もいけそう。 🌊Shanhai jing 1: Lei. The four-legged, two-headed dark red magpie. Maybe they save you when you’re suffering from a fire. #山海経の怪鳥30羽描く #30WeirdAncientBirds #birds

Commission for @facewing.bsky.social of he and @rafev.bsky.social doing the breegull bash! Did you know that both of them seperately commissioned the same theme as presents for each other? 🤭 Thank you both so much! I love your birbs! 💚💚💚

Start the challenge anytime. You don’t have to draw every day for a month. It’s fine to draw just a few of them. (Needless to say, don’t use Gen AI) Here are examples: 4. Shang-fu (a three-headed, three-winged, six-legged chicken) and 28. Chu-niao (a six-headed blue bird) #30WeirdAncientBirds

🐓Weird Ancient Birds Art Challenge Draw mythical birds with your imagination! An ancient mythic geographic compilation, Shanhai jing is full of weird birds. Its illustrations were lost long ago. Why don’t we imagine them from the descriptions in the text? Here is the prompt list #30WeirdAncientBirds
