Deine Vogel-Bilder sind klasse. Hab selten so ausdrucksstarke Federtiere gesehen.

4 cm??? Doesn't make sense in that size...

Why not? I can use the edges if I have to be more precise.

Very impressive. I love the pose of the bird, and the green and black looks great.

Thanks a lot! I'm not sure if that pose is physically possible, but I liked the effect.

I think it is. I watch them fight in my yard all the time. They either stand up really tall or crouch kind of like this and scream at each other. They get pretty violent sometimes, but its interesting to watch.

Woa very cool. In town i watch them fly. They are really great pilots.

They're great to watch, especially in groups.

Just messing around. There are other images in your gallery I like but since this was the newest I thought I'd feature it. Nice work!

Whoa, getting dark colours like that with watercolours is really tough . It looks great, I'm impressed yet again .

Thank you.
Got the darkness by applying several layers of color.

Did you have to wait for each layer to dry first?

alarie-tano In reply to eoghankerrigan [2009-03-31 17:37:32 +0000 UTC]

Yes, but as it's a very small picture, it dried quite quickly. (Though mostly I'm too impatient to let it dry completely)

I see, I think I'm too impatient altogether for watercolours . I need to start using them sometime.

Watercolours??
Did you put them on a dark paper, or was it originally white?..

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

alarie-tano In reply to DappleHack [2009-03-31 17:17:03 +0000 UTC]

It's on white paper. First I put a layer of green on the image, then a bit of blue over the area where the bird is. Added more green later to get it opaque.
