Is it meant to be a fully black back or a bordered back? I also feel that it doesn't have a distinct avian look at a quick glance, whether that's the intention or not I'm unsure.

The back is still in progress and I'm open to suggestions on it.  Let me see what I can do with it!

Did a little more work on the card back - finished the wings and started on something of a border.  I may need to set this aside until I finish the rest of the pips, however.

That's kinda nice, that back.  I like it.

Looking better and better. Are you planning quite thin borders or all the way to the edge?

Your line work is very crisp, I look forward to seeing this hit Kickstarter.
Yes, I might be the guy you remember from that thing at that place way back when.

And I appear, almost a year later to the day to say all the face art is finished!  I was distracted by a few other projects (my comic and some novels) and put this away for a while.  I will most likely not be doing anything with this project for a few months as I still need to fulfill rewards on another Kickstarter, and I'll probably be moving in July.  I'll also be redoing the card back - I want something in color to contrast all the black and white on the faces.  When I DO get this printed, I'll also definitely be going with one of the big companies - Legends or EPCC, or even MPC.  The printer I used for the parrot deck was just blegh.

Owls are one of my favorite birds of prey. I'll be in for a pair of these! Good work!
