Stay Strong

This chicken has started to fade away as time passed. Still he stands tall and stays strong. He will keep fighting with his life. He will stand tall and hold the gate. I couldn't say what gate he's holding that he hasn't been relieved of his post.

A Fan Made Robot

Hi there, 
Seeing as how I’ve been both very bored and broke for the past week or so, I’ve been spending loads of time on the internets.
I found your blog a couple weeks ago and have been checking in every couple days to see what’s new.. I really appreciate your work.
So much so that I was inspired to create something of my own. Mind you, it has nothing to do with chickens, but like I said, I’m bored and broke, so I need cheap entertainment. This is my first real attempt at MS art..
I guess I’m just sending this because it was inspired by your chicken rainbow and nobody’s around right now for me to show it to.
His coat kinda came out pixilated.. I think that’s just because I was using fine lines. I wanted to put a flower on his lapel, but I’m not at that level yet. My idea for him was a timid kind of robot butler, or perhaps waiter at a classy establishment. Hmmm.. Anyways, enjoy!
 
Regards,
Mike


Thank you Mike for showing me your first attempt, even if it isn't a chicken. And thank you for being a fan of mine. I know it's a bit rude but I'm going to pick at it.

First things first. Mike saved his robot butler as a BMP, which is good(unlike jpeg) but not web friendly. It's best to save as a PNG. As for the coat. There's nothing wrong with a bit of pixelation, but since you used gray for the outlines you probably should have colored the whole coat black(maybe with a red tie). I'm supportive of the fact that he had a simple idea behind him. He's a classy robot servant. It's a good base. I must say his slightly crooked grin makes him look a bit evil though.  I actually rather like the floatation rings. Your biggest problem is the tophat.You have the band placed midway up but that goes at the brim, like so.(Sorry. that's rather abstract looking. This earlier rather terrible one may be better)

At any rate your robot looks about on the level of this robot. And I rather like ole batwings there.

Sorry about the lack of  chicken this post. I'll have another up later today

Battle Scarf

A hard fighter who has survived dozens, if not hundreds of battles, clothed in only his lime-green scarf. His red eyes raging with blood lust. He will continue striding forward, undeterred by hardship. Those who face against him are against an unbeatable monster.

Also I apologize for wasting hours of your lives with the TVTropes links, but I need to mix up my pattern from time to time.

Ribbon

This man is a ribbon of justice. Anyways I thought on what it would look like to draw a single stroke chicken since I haven't done something like that in quite a while. I feel this one gives a stark impression, like a logo off some fancy overpriced box of chocolate. The lack of a comb is regretful but I failed to realize until after I'd gotten too far in my stroke. I couldn't think of any simple way to insert it so it went without.

Erm. It's a bit over-sized and gets covered on the right I notice. Click it and you'll see the edge.

Chicken Rainbow

Here we have a rainbow of chickens. Now I know you're gonna say something like "Why are there only six?" And the answer is Indigo and Violet are both Purple. Also when I look at an actual rainbow I can only see four colors(Red, Yellow, Green and Purple. I dunno what's up with my eyes...) So at any rate here we have six chickens displaying the 6 colors of light.(Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet) On a vaguely sky background.

Chicken on 7

Chicken on 7 is a piece that focuses on rainbows. I really don't have much to say for it. It's a basic chicken on a rainbow circle. I didn't really pull anything out so it's very basic. Just a chicken with some rainbow... *just got a great idea* I may well be back again tonight!

Triangle

This chicken is made entirely out of triangles. I thought it's be good for mixing things up a bit. It gives a distinct impression of sharpness, as such things usually do. Triangles are great for giving striking impressions of things. Also I like the disconnected neck. It makes his seem silly.

Also I notice that I've rolled back to my old update rate. Nice speed for that last while though.
