Couldnt tell what it was for a while lol

love your work with the basic design, but feel the thickness of the talon overall looks more like a Dragon or even a wildcat of some sort than a birds (probably adding to the confusion Tennex expressed). I think if you slimmed the talon down, and added a little "bird flesh/scale detail, it would pop out more as a Snow Raven insignia. Something akin to, but better rendered and not bright yellow, lol, this


but jsut my 2 cts. I can't do cg art at all, so take it for what you will.

thank you both for the feedback, it is much appreciated. i really was going for a more raptor-ish look on the claw it self, the feathers at the end are really where i wanted the bird element to come in. i took tennex's comment to heart and decided to try and make the claw more defined and more identifiable. adding scales and trimming it down would have just been SO MUCH work. what do you think now as it is, with the redefinition and cleaned up lines?

I do like it more, but it still feels rather thick for a birds talon, to my mind.


get where you are coming from on the tons of work things, as I have people recommend "simple" fixes for stuff all the time that essentially require a complete remake.
