Hepatus Epheliticus, Calico Crab

I’m gonna be honest, this was one of the tougher ones I’ve done so far... Crabs are weird and very very textured

I’m also not 100% sure this is a calico crab because the markings are so faded (I was referencing a preserved specimen), but it’s my best guess.

Corythaeola cristata, Great Blue Turaco.

I might post part 2 to this at some point, but this bird is just so goofy and not majestic looking at all when viewed from the front. 

p.s. the reason the eye is all weird is because this was a museum specimen :) (as are the majority of illustrations I will post here in the future)
