    good work, thought the red feathers were fire initailly, icarus beakface
    really like the emotions your portray in the beakfaces, i have a sneaking suspicion they are up to no good, but always find myself empathizing with them
    great illustrative stye as always

    Wonderful work again, love the colours. Of course I noticed your taped on feathers, some fallen off, great touch to detail as always. Love these little details in your work, really makes it so quirky and unique.

    Haha, thanks! Leonardo should have designed his wings for him…they’d have been a steam powered delicate system of strings and levers and all the angles would have added up to some divine number…

    Icarus beakface…good idea!! aha yes you have to wonder what his motivation is :)

  • Firedrake

    Firedrake in reply to Lisadee’s comment, 3 months ago

    Hehe! He’ll be making his debut this friday :)

    They always tape on their feathers, silly beasts! Surely there are better ways!

  • Firedrake

    Firedrake in reply to sjem’s comment, 3 months ago

    Yes practicality is not a strong trait in the beakfaces! I think it will all end in tears…

  • Firedrake

    Firedrake in reply to Jessica Tremp’s comment, 3 months ago

    He is one of my favourites!
    I love his stuck out little legs, not streamlined at all but he is worried about crashlanding :)

    Every new painting by Firedrake is an event to look forward to … you keep up the same high standard all the time. Brilliant … the painting and the artist!

    Can we see him with his parachute?

  • LostBoy

    LostBoy, 3 months ago

    he certainly doesnt look very confident…look cool mounted the 90 degrees too!!

    how big is this one?

  • Firedrake

    Firedrake in reply to Chris White’s comment, 3 months ago

    Parachute? As if he would be that organised.

    Haha kidding – really good idea actually! I’m picturing a banksy-style beakface floating down to earth…

  • Firedrake

    Firedrake in reply to LostBoy’s comment, 3 months ago

    No, not confident at all! He is 30cm x 15cm.

    This guys great :)
    I hope he was an example of what-not-to-do to the other less-evolved beakfaces, LOL!

    If there were a beakface Darwin Awards, he’d get a mention!
