Cropped alot, but atleast i was able to fit in the focal point. The rest was kinda cool too but this shall do for now.

I think this is my BEST all year in art clas... don't you? i did it fast too, only took about 5 or 6 hours (which is actually fast compared to others 10 and Catwalks near 20 ^^;)

Done in Oil Pastel... They seemingly have a great texture that works well with Feathers... but i managed to make it work well with eyes and beaks aswell! just takes alot of layers to cover up the paper and make it look more solid.

PS; I chose to do an Eagle beause well, my Native name is... well i don't know how to swrite it down but it should sound like "OAT-eh-wan" which I'm sure means "Big Eagle" so yeah... thats the story i made up behind that to cover up the fact that i couldn't find any other picture of a bird i liked ^^;

EDIT; The Original has been given to my dad for fathers day. I warned him i will need it back in grade 12 for my art porfolio. So he said he will frame it to keep it safe.

Yeah, heh, it's fun to do feathers and stuff with oil pastels.. Especially on colored paper. It's one of those mediums that will let you do a big fully colored pic in a relatively short amount of time.

And dude - love the eagle here. Great job with the details on the feathers. I love how you added some purples, blues and yellows to the white parts. And the realistic eye rocks too. Awesomeness =D

Holy shit, that's really awesome o_O!! The beak is so shiny, and the eye..is just great. Oil pastels are so hard for me to work with (unless I decide to be cheap and paint with them instead of just drawing >_>;)...a lot of people really find them challenging, but you did some really great work. Totally awesome.

(uhm incase you're wondering, i'm...miket from alex's oekaki board XD i've seen you around a lot, so i decided to check out your da account.)
