Description I drew this for my spanish class. We're all supposed to choose a subject from Costa Rica and present it to the class. Mine is about the famous bird, the quetzal. They say it's good luck to see one in the wild, and there are 6 different species of quetzals. This one is a Resplendent Quetzal. I also hear it's illegal to breed them in captivity.
Enjoy!^^

Heh. Guess what? I saw you draw this in Anatomy again! XD

And just a little something to add: Not only is it illegal to breed them in captivity, it's also impossible. None of the quetzals that were in captivity survived. They can only survive in the rain forests of Costa Rica. I love 'em! They're so awesome like that! ^.^ And the drawing is flawless as well. Hell, ALL your drawings are!

Oh yeah, I've heard that about those birds. Not in Spanish class though. I'm taking French. xD

Overall, I think this illustration is beautiful! Awesome job with the long tail feathers.

Lucky, you get to draw in your spanish class. D:

Anyways, you are a wonderful artist! I love this, the shading is amazing, and this whole thing is over-all wonderful!
