          I do think this is well done as an owl themed outfit.

          The best bird/lady character I can think of is Money from One Piece.

          She is a good balance of both bird and lady. She got her birdy bits as prosthetics, so that covers the distinctly human features.

          I’m not sure I can’t think of another character that gets the proper bird legs, what that third leg joint, the tarsus. Feet are a bit off, as a bird of prey should have 2 always forward facing toes, one always backwards, and an outside one like a thumb that is normally back, especially in attack mode, to have a 2+2 arrangement. The feet are one of the key things that make raptors extra special.

          We can’t see if she has just bird legs or if she got the full bird pelvis.

          Also, owl feathers have hot pink highlights in UV light that we aren’t quite sure the function of. If we’re talking hybrid, perhaps some of that could be visible.

          There is also a lot of anatomical structures to consider when talking functional wings. Musculature, anchor points, etc.

          I just feel there is a lot of untapped potential if we’re talking owl ladies. There are many creative avenues I don’t think have been explored.

          It’s like having all Judy Hoppses and no Mirko.

    If pictures of wet or featherless owls have taught me anything, that ample-looking sweater is almost entirely filled with stuffing.
