I'm just really thankful they fixed the males toes...I love the fluffy babies tho

I really like the changes to the adult male. Chest looks much better. Also, noticed there is some disagreement over chick fluffiness, I'm pro fluff.

Very pretty and fluffy!

Looking much better this time around. The chicks are fine, compared to the owlets i once saw in a next box years ago, they look pretty spot on. The female chick looks as if she's puffing herself up to look bigger, which some of the owlets did when I disturbed their box.
The male's tail is better in the new position, though I would like to see the female's tilted or moved down just slightly so it's away from her face. Although it does give her a 'blocking the sun to see better' vibe :)

I love the sketches! I love how the babies look so fluffy. :) :)

I like these sketches a lot more, and the owl face is great.....but looks...weird? I think it needs to be adjusted or maybe it's just because there isn't any shading right now.

I love the changes that were made so far! I've been waiting for the nyte revamp to happen ^-^

A couple of things though-I agree that the females tail needs to be lower-it just looks a bit odd where it is. Also, you can't really see any of the female-her wing seems too large or something.

Much better! I like the females stouter pose, however the male still looks like he's staring at something very furiously....

The female chick looks much better, maybe her eyebrow feathers stand up too much or are a bit too fluffy? Something looks a bit off to me about that. I can also see that the faces are the same as the first sketch, I'm guessing that is because it has just not been adjusted yet and not because you are ignoring them. I would still like to bring up the fact that the females face just looks too baby-dolled to me, its her eyes I believe. Other than her face I love her design.

The males stiff pose is really the only big problem I see. But I do like the design much better, I would collect these babes!

I love the adults feet! They look really cool, and alot closer to an actual foot then the little hooks you guys had before.

The collar/cowl/fluff/whatever you call it, I think is a tab bit too big, it gives the female a very flat face I think.

I agree with Copeh's post. The face cowl looks much better pulled up.

I agree about the end of the female's tail.. maybe moved down a bit away from her face. I like the positioning of the male's tail a lot better than before. The smooth line on his chest compared to the female's feels a little odd to me- I think having it detailed with more featherfluff would make it seem more natural, since the chest feathers on birds are usually quite puffy when they're relaxed. The male's pose does seem a little stiff still - perhaps moving the front foot that is further away so that it's positioned a little more forward, so both legs aren't parallel, might help.

Personally, I like the fluffy babies as they are, since most baby birds are extremely fluffy. ^^

I think the main thing I am not a fan of is the feather ring around their faces, though. It doesn't quite seem connected to the rest of the body. Currently, it feels raised above the body, as if they were wearing masks. On owls, it's much flatter, and ends right below the beak. I feel as if making it smaller and more in line with the line of the body would help. Perhaps instead of a complete ring of feathers, make it fade in below the beak so it looks more connected to the neck. Though I do think the long feathers on the ends of the wings seem a little too uniform - hopefully detailing in the lineart will help with that. ^^
