⛰️山海経5：嚻。意外と漢字を表示できる！ 古代中国サイクロプスバード。嚻という字の形が面白いので、４つの翼をそのまま四角い「口」型にして「目」を中心に置きました。
🌊Shanhai jing 5: Xiao. The four-winged, one-eyed bird with a dog tail. It reminds me of Cyclops. The meat cures stomachache. (idk how to hunt them tho)

⛰️古代中国の地理書『山海経』に登場する怪鳥たち30羽を、原典の文章を頼りに描きました！ 次から次へと首や足の数が多い鳥が飛び出す。おもしろすぎる生態系。
🌊I’ve finished the 30 ancient Chinese weird mythical birds art challenge! It’s been so fun to design and draw so many kinds of multi-headed birds. Hope you enjoyed!

⛰️山海経28: 鸀鳥。六つ首で黄色くて青い鳥。近世になると6本首というより「1首6頭」の姿で描かれがち。あの渋滞ぶりがツバメの巣みたいで好き。
🌊Shanhai jing 28: Chu-niao. A blue bird with a yellow body and six heads. It might be warm and crowded like a swallow’s nest in breeding season.

⛰️山海経29: 䲦鳥。谷に住んでいて、目が3つあって、鹿みたいな声で鳴くフクロウ。王道の梟デザインは既に描いているので、形も鹿に寄せました。
🌊Shanhai jing 29: Dai-niao, the three-eyed owl in the valley, which cries like a deer. As I’ve already done “a normal owl” before, let me make a deer-owl this time.

⛰️山海経30: 鳳皇。鳳凰は孔雀＋雉型で描かれることが多いのに、山海経では「鶏に似ている」と記述されていて面白い。にわとり、ありがたき生き物。
🌊Shanhai jing 30: Feng-huang. A chicken-like phoenix of the five blessing colors. Interestingly the book says they look like a chicken while they’re usually drawn like a peacock or a pheasant.

⛰️山海経27: 当扈。ヒゲで空を飛ぶキジ。頬毛で長距離飛行するのは物理的にかなり大変そうなので、インドショウノガンみたいに求愛ジャンプする鳥だったのではあるまいか。
🌊Shanhai jing 27: Dang-hu. A pheasant that flies with feathers around the ear or neck. That sounds weird, but maybe it was for jumping courtship like Lesser floricans.

⛰️山海経26: 鵸䳜。三つ首でよく笑うカラス。王道カササギベロスを既に描いているので、今回は据え置き型カラスにしました。厄除けということは、八咫烏のような役割なのかもしれない。
🌊Shanhai jing 26: Qi-tu, the three headed laughing crow. The description says their meat may help to prevent nightmares. Maybe they were a happy crow.

🌊Shanhai jing 25: Li, the mythical quail with black patterns and red neck plumage. The description sounds like pretty normal quails… maybe they were kinda mountain quails.

🌊Shanhai jing 24: Xun-niao. Another deity bird slain by the emperor. It’s remarkable that the description says they are a raptor with a straight bill. I don’t think such birds exist at present.

🌊Shanhai jing 23: Da-e, the giant osprey, aka the war bringer. Once they were a deity until the emperor slew them. So here I designed the Dullahan bird.
