Requested by David Paye - Male Nanase with a cockatoo, for hair comparisons

I don't think Nanase is thrilled to be holding this surprisingly large bird. Point of fact, I MIGHT have made it in-cockatoo-aly huge. I made it around 21 inches tall based on my extensive quick internet search, but I didn't include tail feathers in that measurement, and I'm sorta kind thinking MAYBE I was supposed to because THAT'S A BIG BIRD.

It was fun rediscovering Nanase's cockatoo hairstyle. I'm not sure what my logic behind it was at the time, but I'm sure it was horrible.

I've had this weird thing about having all the sketchbooks zoomed out to show the full bodies of the characters since the start of this Patreon sketchbook madness, and this was the sketchbook that convinced me that didn't make a lot of sense. Yeah, sometimes it's what's for the best, but it limits composition choices and forces a zoom out that might not be best for the sketchbook while making it take longer to make (which is sort of like slapping yourself in the face twice for no good reason).

Like this image! The whole point is comparing Male Nanase's hair to the Cockatoo's stylish haircut! Feathercut? Whatever. Point is, bird's the word, and I'm going to zoom in and out however appropriate going forward.
