Unknown Myths A-Z: Firebird

=skulldog:iconskulldog: reports, Oct 2, 2007
Firebird you might say, 'But we already now what a Phoenix is!'. Well, you may know the myths of the Asian, or Greek Phoenix, but the Firebird is a bit different.

The Firebird, comes from Russian mythos, and is called the 'zhar-ptitsa' or Heat Bird. Originally depicted not as a crane or peacock like bird, the Russian Firebird is usually drawn as more eagle like, or at times as a pheasant like bird. It glows brightly in golds and silvers, and even it's feathers continue to glow after being removed. This firey beast doesn't burn itself in a pyre of rebirth either, hardly Phoenis like at all!

For this feature I went out into the wilds of DA and went on a hunt for some more unique Firebird and Phoenix designs to showcase.



And I even manged to hunt down three 3D Firebirds on my journey.



Please take a moment to let the artists featured know you enjoyed their works. A little comment goes a long way.

Lovely selections! :D
I did an illustration of the Firebird Russian tale the other day :). I love firebirds, and it's nice to see that some others on DA know of them as well! :D

Wonderful feature. :) It's so nice to see someone still remembers Russian mythology... I'm even more pleased to see you got the name and the translation right. :D

I remember a firebird from Fantasia 2000, it was sleeping in a volcano and some ridiculous Nymph went and woke the angry bastard up, resulting in the destruction of everything.

Yay! Inspiration for my novel! I didn't know what a regular Phoenix looked like, so I called mine like an eagle/pheasant. Funny how that's actually a version!
