Bugsy Hornbill didn't just patronize the speakeasy, he owned the joint. He was the type of guy who always had a wink and a smile... *if* he was happy. And if Bugsy wadn't happy, ain't no one was happy.
If hard-pressed, I could give this some esoteric meaning - like "it represents man's encroachment upon nature and the ensuing distress of the African Ground Hornbill." But really, I just wanted to draw a hornbill in a hat.

LOL at your comments on this one!! I love the detail in this, around all his ridges and crinkles--and the colors are fabulous! And he would be a formidable speak-easy owner, wouldn't you say...? Great "fun" piece!

Great job on this, I love the concept and you executed it really well! It's about as realistic you can get given the fact that it features a hornbill in a hat.

Of course they don't! Everyone knows that hornbills are fictitious creatures, dreamed up by the French government as a scapegoat for the cake shortage of 1872.
If anything, they'd wear berets.

A brand new monthly article which showcases some of deviantART's finest equine artists, as well as recognizing the lesser-known but equally talented ones. Interviews, helpful tutorials and features can all be found here too! I hope you enjoy it.
The idea of this contest is to set you up completely blind with a mythical being - from any world culture - and turn you loose to come up with a deviation based around it!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,

Are you implying that hornbills don't run around the African plains dressed like this?
