Description was playing around on twitter with some redesigns of porgs/fathiers from The Last Jedi, along with a definitelyΒ not-at-all-serious take on what Porgs would look like if they had hidden extendable necks like green herons

Porgs: what if they had just a bit more actual puffin-esque anatomy and were less blobs on sticks
Fathiers: one of a multitude of versions that just leans into the plant-eater aspects of their design, kinda want to do a version that leans into their Big Ol' Racing Cats vibe as well

in before "did you know porgs were used to cover up the native puffins on Skellig Island"

Hah! That's awesome.
Just spent a few minutes watching Green heron videos because of this. XD They are hilarious.

It would honestly be so terrifyingly cute if porgs operated like those transforming owls....

Personally, I always saw the fathers as a horse/greyhound cross, but your idea is an interesting one. (I don't even remember hearing of 'racing cats')
Can puffins really stretch their necks that long?

the description both racing cats and the fact that the extendable necks are based on herons, not puffins!

That would have been kind of a funny reveal to have a Porg suddenly shoompΒ its long neck out at you.

i'm actually kinda surprised they didn't go with the extendable necks for the porgs--could've led to some legitimately funny moments, kinda like hack of Skyward SwordΒ that stretches Link's neck in hilarious ways

These are definitely good, very in the style of the amazing Terryl Whitlatch!

The porgs are pretty cute. I heard that they were designed to mask the puffins that were all over the island, rather than film somewhere else or move the puffins altogether. That's why they look like that.Β

Very nice! The feet of the Falthier in particular remind me of some of Terryl Whitlach's creature designs for the prequels and the Wildlife of Star Wars book, like the Gualama .

i like your fathiers better! they look much more alien rather than cutsey things. i would literally die laughing (as in i'd probably fall to my death) if i saw a porg do that. i mean... holy shit

A gazelle, a penguin, a duck, a sparrow, a tiger, and one of those dinosaurs that Star Wars used. Kind of weird, but good depiction skills!
