I think they look fantastic. The claws look so sharp - they will be formidable fighters!

Female though, yes, an improvement in Fierce. The tail does look better with the fewer feathers. on what we poked in ^: Male's pupils I'd say definitely need some poking because he does,as someone mentioned, look kinda crosseyed (like he's trying to look at a bug hovering just over his beak), rather than fierce. Female,,, pleas,,, nec k?? Smooth over the far arm on the male somehow so it doesn't have that sharp line? Make the far toe on the female's closer foot a bit thicker? Really would like to see some coverlets at the wing/body intersection (would smooth the transition+give a few more 'body' feathers, make the shoulder look stronger) Male hindleg still could maybe be a little thicker? - Nice to see they got a bit of a nail trim, though they still seem pretty long for an animal that would be walking on them (honestly the current art has a more logical claw shape for an animal that would be walking around a good portion of the time?) "but how would they grip prey with shorter, less-curved nails?" (and at this point I'm not saying "overhaul the entire claws" I just feel like throwing in some Biologies because I Can Do That, even if I do miss the fourth hind toe in the adults and actually Now I'm confused because didn't the babies still have their fourth hind toe last time we saw them? Though I suppose that was back in September so we don't know what the babies look like now) Consider the deinonichus's foot (the claws would have been larger in life, since they would have had a nail on them like cats and dogs and modern-day birds and so on, but still, flatter) then consider how their hind feet are currently believed to have been able to hold their prey, judging by the flexation their feet were capable of, even the dew-claw CHONK go the claws into the prey Anyway that was our Biology Corner section for the day.

Eh, I like the female how it is. The eyes could be changed on the male, and the hind leg addition is okay too, but otherwise it's better how it is.

When is the revamp taking place? >.> If the Nytekries are gonna look like this, I'm gonna collect them!

Besides the crossed-eyed male, it looks pretty cool!

Changing the eyes helped so much. Nytekeries are my favorite species and I wasn't happy that they were suddenly cute instead of dangerous looking.

I'm pleased that the eyes got the changes I suggested. They definitely look fiercer now! The pupils on the male could be just a little broader, though.

I've noticed that the base of tail looks too thin and slender. I think it should begin a little wider. And the feathers that run down the back of the neck don't happen to settle well with me either. If possible, I think said feathers should be a bit fluffier and perhaps just ever-so-slightly longer. Lastly, something about the little tuft of fur that hangs down closest to the female's beak looks a little odd to me. I would say to just get rid of it, but it doesn't really matter too much if you leave it-- I just find it looks weird.

No real critique, I absolutely love them and can't wait for the revamp.

Eeeeee! I love them. Owlybird nytes. Makes me excited for my nyte project now. Also Faes are next. Poor Faelora babies need some makeovers.

The males are the love of my life!!!
