I did not realize Airwatcher was supposed to be a bird until you did this. You have opened my eyes, and the truth is beautiful.
I do like the new head, but honestly the part I favor is that you sized down the Ultimate Dume hands. Those things are so ungainly.
You so consistently retained the color scheme, and many of the original design elements, your build is proof enough of your assessment; this kid just didn’t have the parts or the experience needed to realize their vision. You’ve done them a huge service with this build.
10/10!
