Wasn't expecting these when I started my search on the subject, I was looking into native american folklore inspired art, trying to find a concept for a character I'm working for some smallville game. The character is a Thanagarian, who goes by Thunderbird himself, basically looks like a native american with wings, and was raised on earth by humans, indians, the ability to control weather, lightning, and basically outstorm Storm is a power he wields through his Thanagarian war spear made of the Nth Metal, channeling atmospheric phenomena like Hawkman channels gravimetric. Anyway nice to have run into this, renders I lack the programs or patience to use, if she's anything like the mythical thunderbirds, she'd whoop my Thanagarian thunderbird imitator easy.

Thanks. This character was initially inspired by the Marvel character "Falcon" who was one of my faves growing up. I had the costume for the female character, but no real theme in mind, until another artist suggested making her Native American. And like turning on a light switch in my head, the character suddenly came into focus and I had her entire backstory in a matter of minutes.

cool, I first saw Falcon in action in the old early 90s cartoon The Avengers, he was my favorite too. His name was also used for a deceased OC of mine in a fullmetal alchemist group, the wife of my OC who was from my made up FMA equivalent to America, Falcon was the name of my OC's deceased wife, who was killed by one of the cononical antagonists, who dies in the series, but who I called dibs on for my OC to kill in an RP, he scalped Brigidier General Grom/Iron Fist Alchemist for killing poor falcon, then left him to suffer before being killed by Scar, who kills him in the series.

He is very easy to work with, and loves client input and suggestions. If you like 3D renders, he is a great choice for commissions, IMHO.
