unclevlad Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 Hood ornament from a 30's era Packard. It's a cormorant, a sea bird that dives and swims to capture its prey. The tips...the bird has nothing like em...but they're actually part of the radio antenna. Yeah, the hood ornament functions as the radio antenna. Well, hey. For a fantasy critter? Make that a crest...and those are like displacer beast tentacles...with spear points. Poisoned, if you want that extra touch of vicious.

Lord Liaden Posted July 20 Report Share Posted July 20 To me it looks like a swan shooting bullets from its wings. Kind of a variant on Archangel from Marvel Comics. Christopher R Taylor, Tom Cowan and Ninja-Bear 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted July 20 Report Share Posted July 20 The US government banned hood ornaments as dangerous to someone who gets hit by the car, and while I guess I see their argument... some gorgeous stuff is gone forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
