Birdweek is done!!

Hey, everyone! Gray here, and I can't believe the week is already done!! It's been a lot of fun, but now that the week is done me and Pink will have to take our leave by the end of today! But not without a few words:

Gray: This series has always had a place in my heart since when I first read it, and I'm SO happy to see how the fandom has grown! I didn't find out about the first birdweek until it was too late, and I'm so grateful I got to be a part of this one!!! You all seem like pretty great and nice people, and all of your submissions were WONDERFUL oh my gosh!!!! >:3 THANK YOU FOR THE FUN TIMES!!!

Pink: I was lucky to be well into this series by the time Birdweek started off, and honestly the hype was the most fandom fun I've had in a while! It's done my muse and art wonders, and it's always a joy to talk about characters and a world I love (that’s very special part of my heart) with so many creative and fun people--every bit of it has been a blast! It's even more heartwarming to see how many pitched in, and how many great fanfics and pictures and art were shown off. We've had a wonderful flight, thank you for such a great ride! >83c

Both of us are on deviantart (here’s pinks and mine!) and Pink also has a YouTube and an ao3 !

We have more birdmen stuff on all mentioned (and will upload birdweek on deviantart eventually!) and A LOT MORE GOODS

See ya, Birdmen Tumblr Fandom! We won’t be on here unless it’s for another BIrdmen week, or maybe create something big enough to show here ! (like animation or a lyricstuck! which we have both been working on some >;3c )

#bird gray #the birds chirp #I GOT EMOTIONAL WRITING THIS

BIRDMENWEEK DAY 007: FREE DAY/BLACK

PINK: AND TO ROUND OFF THIS AMAZING WEEK Gray and I decided to do something special!—a collab, where we each sent the other a sketch to work on that we lined and coloured! We picked the prompt “Girls’ Day Out’ because pretty much every girl in Birdmen is an INCREDIBLE character and we can’t wait to see more of them!

wE DIDN’T QUITE KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH BARB BECAUSE WE DON’T KNOW HER THAT WELL ^^; But we wanted to include her nonetheless since she seems to get along fine with the other gals!

(Check the captions for who did what!)

BIRDMENWEEK DAY 006: CAMADARIE/BLUE

I’m a semi-functioning ‘human’,

But I’ve done pretty well so far

Fun fact: this prompt was originally going to be a lyric post using the linked song, but that ended up being unfeasible ^^; Glad I went with this instead though!

Following on the theme of Camaderie, we have a now pleasantly busy billboard that just might make its home in Rei’s room! Since the loveable theatre nerd was so giddy over his newfound family, it probably didn’t take long for him to set up a commemorative (and collaborative!) tribute to them all. I tried to add details where the others might have pitched in with their handiwork and notes and whatnot, but made sure to keep the main focus on Rei’s decorative flair.

(Another credit: Rei with partial heterochromia as Gray’s idea and now a shared headcanon! >83c Also technically him having auburn kinda hair but I always go full redhead with this kid)

Remember when we saw Takayama on a high rocky outcrop somewhere contemplating his life after a birdman he’d never really met died in his arms?

Yeah

Again I used this colour scheme generator because it hasn’t failed me yet :DD

And, of course, again, I’m late

BIRDMENWEEK DAY 005: NATURE/GREEN

Takayama the outdoorsy guy, just taking a rest on a warm afternoon under a familiar old tree of his =w=

I love how his penchant for nature is just subtly a part of his character and it’s wonderful to see him unwind from what must be a rather turbulent existence on its own

Day 4 : Light / Yellow

I had doubts about what to do for this day, but then I remembered the short interaction between Takayama and Arthur and this image popped inside my head.

#gray: WOW I LOVE THIS??? ITS SO EMOTIONAL #i wish we saw them interact in non-intense situations #it couldve been a fun dynamic!! aaaaa #pink: sECONDED HOLY SHIT #AHHH I LOVE THE TEXTURE YOU ADDED AND THE FAINT GLOW IT JUST REALLY MAKES THIS PIECE #bird week rebirding

(Click for Cool Transparent Effects™!)

Pink here!! NOBODY REALLY REQUESTED THIS, but in the spirit of Birdweek, I thought I'd share the (romantic) Birdmen ships Gray and I are currently sailing >83c As well as a little bit of info on why bc I really enjoy talking about them and drawing cute things with reckless abandon, admittedly.

TAKAEISHI: Their current dynamic is endlessly interesting--Eishi doesn't 'get' Takayama yet but it seems Takayama is willing to let him try more than the others, answering life questions for him rather freely for such a mysterious character. Some of Takayama's most humanizing moments include Eishi and clearly Takayama's impulsive heroism and innate goodness has gotten Eishi to revise some things about himself so they have a fair amount to teach each other still. They also have a healthy base that's sweet to see--Takayama respects Eishi's cagey nature and judgement (shown when he stopped heroing about on request), while Eishi's willing to apologize and admit his shortcomings to him when they come (that talk where he realized said stoppage of heroing about was harmful to Takayama, which was jUST A REALLY BEAUTIFUL SCENE especially when you take into account Eishi was raised in a pretty controlling environment so--props to him).

And aside from all that...subtext is fairly set on Eishi being gone for the guy. Good luck, Bellwether.

GABRIEL/MILAN: The simultaneously subtle and obvious ways Tanabe portrays romance and intimacy between characters is or rather, was most clearly seen with these two, and we love them for it >8'3c They may have been side characters, but they were a dELIGHT

ARTHUR/ROBIN: WE WERE ROOTING FOR YOU, WE WERE A L L ROOTING FOR YOU Two tweethearts who didn't get to enjoy their short time together, unfortunately :'( Their graceful courtship was lovely while it lasted, and I don't know if I'd yearn for more context to their feelings in the form of memories or cry at the sight of them now

KAMODA/REI: I GOT GRAY INTO THIS SHIP EHEHEHEHEHEHE (and I saw @lackadaisical-pottymouth expressed interest in their dynamic and hI HELLO OH MYG OODNESS IM NOT ALONE) They seem to like each other a lot already, palling around and interacting in the background in the most mundane but adorable ways (like in their joint selfie, or in a long-suffering Rei trying to get Kamoda to use an umbrella when they were leaving when the latter was about to use his backpack to shelter from the rain). I'd imagine Rei, who'd been used to loneliness and quiet for so long, would more than welcome Kamoda's loud, boisterous and kind nature and return it. Kamoda would appreciate the energy and be eager to share and trade life experiences with one just as excited to share them with him.

BIRDMENWEEK DAY 004: LIGHT/YELLOW

Decided to go for a :3c rather darker idea for this one

Also an apt time to say: Rei’s blackout is by far my favourite one—it’s so macabre and just packed to the brim with symbolism that I honestly couldn’t help but be horrifically mesmerized.
