Artist's Comments

I was trying so hard on the head for this, so hard that I think I over tried myself, and got exhausted halfway through. But, I like it still, except for the whole 'wing' thing... but I was so tired! And I'd been doing it for so long!
I'm really getting back into eagles... They used to be my favorite animal before lemurs, but lemurs are just getting so... boring for me now, and eagles seem to be taking over again. Especially wedge tailed eagles. They're so beautiful with their browns and creams!
Hope you like it! (at least from the neck up!)

Took like... 5 days? Not full on, but it's still the longest I've spent on something.

Wowo thats awsome, and the part where it looks like its dissapearing around the wings is really nice, even though you prabably didnt intend to make it look like that, it could just be my imagination but eh..

Ive seen one of them irl in the aussie outback :3 they are so pretty

Wow this is definitely amazing! :wow: I love how this is so different from your other pieces because this is on a extremely realistic level but you really did an AWESOME job at the coloring/shading and whatnot! It looks incredibly good! Maybe you could crop it down to what you like and use it as a DevID or you know... finish it but haha yeah it'll probably take really long... :P
