Half of the Xmas present commission for the across-the-backyard neighbor; it's the bird mascot of the local university. (The other half was another bank-style piggy.)
Mascot Bird:




Making something stylized in this way was interesting for me. I had to figure out the specific look I wanted to go with, since the mascot's had a lot of art done of him over the years and not all of it is the same. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. I'm planning to make the pattern available for sale, and, when I get a free moment or ten, maybe make a Stephen Colbert bird with the same pattern. I just need to decide what's going to be red, what's going to be white, and what's going to be blue, and I'll be set to go ;)
