One of the problems I kept having was getting the face/head to look right. The laughing falcon has those really distinctive dark markings on its face, two wings of color going back from each eye. There isn't a mask that emulates that very well! The closest I could get was with the Elemental Fire (or Elemental Flame?) mask, from the Elemental Tights set, which you don't have (and which I don't think I could recommend, since it's very limited in application). And even it wasn't that good, the 'wings' of color weren't big enough, too constricted to the eyes.
At any rate... the only suggestions I'd have would be to maybe flip the colors of the costume. Well, not flip those colors exactly, but flip the light/dark. Maybe go with a light brown tone for the base, with darker accents (more like the actual bird). I personally don't like the big bird beak either, but that's a personal preference and obviously I haven't offered a better solution. :(
I will look into it again soon and see what I can come up with. Any more info on theme/concept? Powers?

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm having trouble with one of them, though: finding a lighter brown. That's one of my biggest complaints about the costume creator, it doesn't have near enough colors. Brown gets hit the worst, I can't find a brown tone that's significantly different from the one I was already using, but not so much that it's more of a sandy color. Also, I'm not a big fan of the huge raven beak either, but without the steelhawk set, i had to improvise.
EDIT: almost forgot, he'll probably be using the archery powerset.

Well, she's bird-themed but not particularly bird-looking, if that counts look at Grey Kestrel in my sig >.>
