[WIP] Happy puffin (Patreon)

[wallpaper] Happy puffin

There have been quite a few requests over the years to see this bird at my style. I knew about this bird, but this is my first time drawing  :D

Puffins are small seabirds who have large beaks that get brightly colored during the breeding season. There are three species of puffin. They all have impressive eyes. Very pretty.

This bird is famous for its somewhat worried face, so I focused on making it look happier.

I thought a lot about which of the three background colors to choose.

At this stage I stare at the monitor for 30 minutes.

Marine birds won the recent sticker reward vote. At this stage, it is not yet clear whether these will appear as reward stickers, but I plan to update them as an iMessage sticker pack for sure :D
