I knew I wanted to do a phoenix of sorts, so I searched for a LONG time to find just the right bird to transform. I'm rather pleased with the source I found and with the final product I arrived at. If you have a minute PLEASE look at the high res, there's a ton more detail than you can really see in the small image :)

I saw the wonderful textures in the source and naturally thought of dragon skin and shiny horns! So I spent hours turning the source into this guy!!!
