I just got hipped to this post over at the ArtOrder blog thanks to the webcomic Darths & Droids. It seems that back in September of 2009, ArtOrder has a competition to redesign the owlbear. The entries range from the noble, to the silly, to the outright creepy. As someone who likes alternate takes on old classics, I found the submissions to be excellent design fodder for the next time the players run across D&D’s favorite hybrid. Do yourself a favor and check them out.

Those are fantastic! Especially as the Owl Bear is one of my Top 10 favorite D&D monsters of ALL TIME!
Thank you so much for sharing!
Those are awesome images.
Some nice twists on the core concept.
Thanks for sharing. :)
