Thank you so much! I've been trying to think of a general bird character for a while. Puffinca's characters were really influencing me to maybe do a type of gryphon....I would consider this a Guardians of Ga'Hoole OC, but I've only read the first 3 books :saddummy:

I actually spent over an hour doing this since I wanted it to be a legit character of mine. I actually researched all the species of owls in trying to pick something, and I just went with Barn..then I found this "game" and I'm surprised I could come up with a more unique design.

Which, I must ask....OBVIOUSLY the Owl Creators are all your own artwork and stuff, but is the DESIGN mine? I want to be sure I'm not stealing anything.
I also did a version in your other creator, for shits and giggles xD
Owloc2 by ArcticSkye   I think I prefer the look/art/style of this game, since it looks more GoGH-ish...but of course this second one I posted here is obviously cute too

did you know theres a movie of the legend of the gardians of GA'hoole? its so awesome!

The design is yours, you can use the character any way you want, you just can't use the actual artwork from the game.

It's funny that you prefer this creator's design, I don't like the art I drew for this one that much and think the Owl Creator character looks way better xD

To me, this one looks more like GoGH, whereas the full Owl Creator is its own style. It's CUTE, don't get me wrong, but I like this one more x3

Ah, cool! Now, I NEVER do this, EVER...but do I have permission to put the owls in my Scraps, until I get/make a proper reference sheet for people?
I NEVER EVER ask to reupload anything because I know the rules, and it's just common sense and common respect to NOT do that.


Your work is amazing btw. Unique style. I'm only 19 and still in my first year of art school. I'm self-taught, outside of that. Been drawing for around 16 years, with huge practice and study on my own...I'm not even CLOSE to your level. I hope I can be, one day.

Yeah, you can upload screenshots from creator games in your scraps, it's only against dA's rules to upload them to your main gallery. Thank you for having enough respect to ask, though xD

Cool, I'm self-taught as well :) You'll get there someday, and may even surpass my level.

aw man I WISH.

It kills me when I see people as great as you with no professional training...makes me lose hope since I have no talent and had to teach myself from scratch xD

and thanks!

Why does that kill you? When I see self-taught artists that are better than me, I see it as an example of how good I can possibly become on my own, not as people who are inherently better than me. No one gets that good from talent alone, you have to practice and experiment.

Oh yes, very true. Without work, talent goes away...but I think of people with talent as having more EXP than someone without talent..or at least Lvl 5 while I'm Lvl 1 xD
