This is my interpretation of the little raptor. After studying corvid/raptor feet as well as bird of prey markings and feathers and combining it's environment and fossils of it's ancestors; This is what I came up with. I used a little bit of RoadRunner for the face marking. I also added an egg tooth to the tip of the nose along with shortening the mouth like birds, instead of the split face look you get with lizards and other reptiles. I also made the boot(the part the raptor sits on when sitting down), vent exposed. It's a shot in the dark, but it was fun to do in the end. Done on 9x12' sketchbook paper, india inks, watercolor, and colored pencils
