Work in Progress: The Imbroglio Pt. II

I got some more work done on "The Imbroglio" yesterday. I got the left-hand-side bird creature mostly finished and started work on the right-hand-side bird creature. I also added 18K gold to the tongues. Another artist on a forum mentioned she thought these guys look like cockatrices. While that was not my original intention when I drew them, I have to admit they do resemble the legendary creatures. A cockatrice has a deadly glance that turns one into stone, much like Medusa. The only way to kill it is to have it look in a mirror or by having a rooster crow.

Some photos below. Still much to be done... hopefully will get some decent time in on this later today.
