Color picture of the chosen design

Bird Color: After choosing the "shellbird' concept a color concept was developed.

BirdSize: A size comparison chart was created to give a sense of scale.

BirdFly: At this stage initial movement and actions were considered. Here the beetle like wings open and close
for makeshift flight.

Bird Variants: At this point there was also a desire to have some variety on heads- here is a series of sketches
that provides some options.

Bird Diagrams: After the final design was approved movements were reconsidered.
