The image here and hopefully a 3D animated short is based off an old and now Embarrassing animatic I made 4 years ago in my first year of college.

I want to completely redo the characters and the way the story is told. Because I think the story has a good basis but ready bad excitation.
First I have started with the main character. I wanted her look to be Semi-realistic/cartoony, and I hope it looks as so.
I have composed her into a conceptual scene idea for an extension to the scene after the cockatoo gets rejected by the birds on the telephone wire in my original animatic. Instead of just flying down to a water foundation crying. I have imagined a sad montage with her walking though the rain lost and forgotten by others she had tried to reach out to.
if you have any suggestions or crits they are warmly welcomed !!!!!! Enjoy !!!!
Done in maya 2009 extended edition, and rendered in mental ray. Some post work done in photoshop (But not the rain, rain was done in maya).
Plz don't use without permission.

The gold is a result from playing around in the blinn material setting in maya. I changed the specular color from white to the yellowish gold color and turned up my reflectivity up and the eccentricity (or spread of the specular across the surface) up. So when my lights in the scene hit the feathers in a certain way it would shine gold, like the translucence in a ravens feathers for example.
