Message: <blockquote data-quote="Andy Hurley" data-source="post: 3261494" data-attributes="member: 86867">Is it possible for some of you extremely talent artists to help us again?We have been improving the way the Topography Article can be used for identification descriptions and we think that linking a word, e.g. supercilium to a painting/drawing/diagram gives a very good optical explanation, particulary for those with English as a second language. The difficulty arises in that each drawing needs a separate page so that when it is linked to, the image is displayed.To that end would like to create a composite image of tails showing the various types and one of beaks which shows the following features:Mandible, upper and lowerCulmenNostril, differents form including tubular etcNailDecurvedRecurvedCereUnguis, maxillary and mandibularLatericornRamicornGonys + spotNasal tuft and bristlesPouchKnobCasque TomiumThere might be a few more that we have forgotten.The tail composite would ideally show a front, rear and side view and include upper and undertail coverts, forked, graduated, square, rounded, cocked, streamers, central and outer retrices, barring and bands etc. And of course anything you can think of.Thank you very much</blockquote>
