Excited about this little fellow? ;)

Model, rigging, and UV map credit to platypus (spliced together from the Crested Guineafowl by DD and Red Bird-of-Paradise by ZTABC/Hendrix, I believe). Woo!

It looks really nice guys. The legs look kind of weird. Don't you think it would be better to use the pheasant legs? Other than that great job!

I think pheasant legs would be too skinny for the Tinamou.

But if they're really absurdly inaccurate, we could try tweaking them :)

Great to see that more birds are being made! The tinamou is my favorite so far. Great work you two.

I do agree that the legs look a little funny, but looking at the pictures that I based the model off of, I think that these legs were our best option.

lol thanks :) Just out of curiosity, would you guys rather see these released individually or as a pack? Personally, I like individual downloads because I'm fussy and only want what I need loaded into the game before launching to build a specific zoo with a species list already planned.

But what I want isn't super important, because I can always repackage them as individual files if I really want to. So, what do you guys prefer?

^ Yep.

Makes zoo-building easier. IF you wanted to do packs to not clog up the game, you could do it by continents, but that's your decision, hahaha.

I would love to see it as a pack
then you don't have to install them all seperately
and they are all very awesome, I can use them all for my new zoo!

Maybe I'll just do both... Package them as individual downloads for people who want them that way, and as a pack for those who'd prefer that option. :P

Per conversation with platy, the legs are being edited :) We'll update the preview once I get home and can reskin the new model.

Also started skinning the Galah (which won't show up in MFAS for a wee bit) after platy edited the model for me (Aves Palm Cockatoo). I didn't get the WIP uploaded to dA or imgur before I left for work, but I'll try to post it here in the AM. I've always wanted more cockatoo species for the game and I'm super excited to have more options now with an edited model (the Palm Cockatoo's beak is HUGE!).
