SciFi and Fantasy Art Angel 2130 by Shelz Keast

Lately the creatures coined as 'Angels' have become increasingly popular with breeders and assorted fanciers. With careful breeding many colour varieties are now available. The two most prized morphs are ‘fell’ and ‘arch’ being pure black and pure white respectively. These creatures, a genetic combination of homing pigeons and marmosets, are used for carrying messages even though the data networks are faster, cheaper and far more reliable.

The Angels each have their own unique ID cuff which serves as data storage (capable of holding up to one Terabyte) and GPS locator.The locators in the ID cuffs are an essential feature as Angels are notorious for taking detours. They have become the bane of many fruit growers especially banana growers. Being more intelligent than their monkey stock and being able to fly previous methods of keeping out animals used by farmers such as netting are no longer of use. There have been many cases of stray Angels forming troops and devastating entire plantations.

16 Aug 2008	Gwenivere Stephan	Loading... Aw, cool. I love the way they are called angels and yet are so far from what we would call angels. This is super neat. The wings are fantastic, especially those little tiny feathers at the top, and the fur is super well done. This is a great picture, wow! Shelz Keast replies: "Thanks. I like doing unexpected stuff. Is juxtoposition the right word?"
5 Oct 2008	Lydia stephanie Barker	Loading... AAAHHHHHH......don’t...like ....monkeys.......quick...SHOOT IT!!!!
25 Nov 2008	Anne Wipf	Loading... Hehe. I wouldn’t like to meet it... Fantastically drawn
1 Dec 2008	Casandra l.johnsen	Loading... (shudders) I hate monkeys! This prooves their evil! Love this pic! its funny! <3 Shelz Keast replies: "I don’t think monkies are that bad- though I wouldn’t go near wild ones on holiday of course."
5 Jan 2009	Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf	Loading... I love the story. The picture is terrifying (but in a good way...) Seriously, if these things really existed I would lose sleep. Shelz Keast replies: "Oh but they can be house trained not to bite. I take it you’re not a huge fan of monkeys then."
11 Jan 2009	Rachel E Sargent	Loading... its a flying monkey from the wizard of oz Shelz Keast replies: "Erm not quite."
8 Feb 2009	Koi	Loading... i’m looking for one of these half Japanese Macaque and half owl do you know how to aquire that kind? Shelz Keast replies: "Macaque-owl type that’s a bit harder. What sort of owl though? There are two families of them after all (Typical and Barn)"
9 Feb 2009	Koi	Loading... snowy owl Shelz Keast replies: "Well if I do a pic like that it’ll have to go in the queue of about a half dozen at the moment."
28 May 2009	Tom Draco Noir Taylor	Loading... Ah, Shelz! Indeed I strongly suggest for the sake of our already beleaguered Species- do not study Genetic Engineering! The fantastic specimens your inventive mind concocts are wonderful- as long as they only exist in your head and as art. Great work on this pic by the way, looks depressingly like my friend’s hateful little spider monkey’s expression!I shall hope no Mad Scientist ever discovers your work and decides to start the recombinant DNA process. Shelz Keast replies: "Well my studies are safely chanelled into the Classics and archaeology. Mightn’t be so safe after all....particuly anything inspired by and Ancient Arts (Dark Age re-enacting) meeting......"
28 Sep 2009	Maria lombide ezpeleta	Loading... Great... Shelz Keast replies: "Thanks."
