Description
This is a drawing of my beloved budgie
I am not very satisfied with this drawing. Have you any critique, feel free and let me know!
The light areas in his feathers are in real darker.

I think you did great job on the drawing! It has the feel of real feathers - especially around the wings and on the head and great job on the beak and eyes. And overall it has a 3D feeling to it which is great . (I see it's an old drawing from year ago so it's probably bit too late make a comment (I mean you probably made lots of other drawings since then and improved even more, but I always try to write a comment when I like something so yeah writing it anyway)
And budgies are wonderful, we've had many during the years (well I had them
Did you get a new one since this one passed away? (sorry to ask such questions not related to the drawings but I saw other comments and your replies that this one is gone now so I'm just curious. You don't need to reply at all of course

Thank you very much for you comment and don't worry you are always welcome to leave a comment even the drawings are already old
I am glad you like the drawing, maybe I will make a other drawing of me and him together in the future as a memory of our time together (but I want to improve my skills more, it needs to be perfect 
I didn't buy a new budgie yet. First I really wanted a new budgie as fast as possible, but I realize it would be better to buy one in the summer vacation since I have much more time to make the bird domestic then. Now his dead is less painful for me (don't understand me wrong I still miss him, but after a while you can give your pain a place) I think it is not smart to buy a new budgie. I am really busy at the moment. Next year I will go to a new school and this will be really tough for me, I will need to spend a lot time at school and will have a lot of homework. when I will buy a new budgie, I will give him/ her a fanatic live. They disserve it. He show me how amazing budgie can be. In the future I may will buy a new budgie, but now it think I can't spend enough time with it right at the moment and if I take a new bird I want to been able to give it as much love and time as possible.
And wow 10 years it so long, you are very lucky to been able to spend such a long time with your budgie!!
Is this one also domestic? Mine was really domestic I got him at an age of 5 weeks and the first months of his live and he really though I was his mother

I totally understand with "his dead being less painful now" and it's totally right if you know you wouldn't have enough time to spend with him - especially at the beginning - that you postponed buying a new bird for later.
It's surely the longest that any budgie lived with us. And I hope he will still last a little bit longer
Well, he's not totally domestic like one can see on youtube videos for example. I admit I never was properly patient with domesticating, but he likes to come to me for some head rub and when he was younger he usually went out of the cage and followed me in the kitchen whenever I went as a little dog
And sitting with a budgie in the garden - wow! That's an absolute trust. I probably would be afraid that he would get scared of something and flied away.

Sure he is!!! It is beautiful. With beautiful colors. I have nine. They are wonderful friends as well.

Yes he was an amazing boy, sadly he passed away 7 months ago I guess
But I still will have my wonderful memories of him
And wow nine budgies is a lot, that must be quite busy hhahaaha

He's beautiful! I like to draw my little boy too! They are the sweetest little companions

Thank you so much, i am glad that you like my drawing
And yes they are the most amazing animals. I still mis my little boy, he was truly a wonderful friend.
He was my first budgie and he has shown me how amazing they are. He gives me so much love and i will Always have my memories of him. He was 100% domesticated and was Always flying in our house. When he was young, I even could sit with my budgie in the garden. Sadly he becomes only 3,5 year
Do you also have a bird as a pet?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do yes. A little budgie named Joey. He's my second budgie. He was a present from my gran a couple of years back after my first little friend passed. Although he is not quite as tame as your boy was he comes outside sometimes and sits on his cage. But he is not secure enough to be too far away from his cage where he can go back inside when he feels threatened. But we're working on that

wat een prachtig en lief vriendje, schitterend getekend, hij lijkt echt super goed op de foto, knap gedaan Nynke

Dankjewel Maria
Ja hij is inderdaad een hele lieve jongen en zit altijd bij me op mijn schouder te kijken als ik aan het tekenen ben
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ohhh wat leuk Nynke, zo leuk als ze dat doen, Ik hoop dat jullie lang van elkaar mogen genieten
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ja dat hoop ik ook heel erg!
Gelukkig is hij nog een jonge parkiet van 3 jaar. Gemiddeld geloof ik dat ze ongeveer 8-13 jaar worden, maar er zijn ook parkieten bij die wel 25 jaar worden. Dus ik hoop dat we inderdaad nog een lange tijd van elkaar kunnen genieten
Hij is echt 100% tam en vliegt eigenlijk bijna de hele dag rond door het hele huis of zit bij de mij of de andere op de schouder.
Ik heb zelfs vroeger toen hij jong was en nog niet zo goed kon vliegen samen met hem in de tuin gezeten, maar dat doen we nu maar niet meer hahahhaha

Heerlijk als zo tam zijn en bij je komen zitten, Ik heb ooit eens een dwerg papegaaitje gehad, die zat ook altijd bij mij,
Ging me overal achter na, zo leuk,
Hij had uit gevonden hoe hij zelf uit de kooi kon komen, door het voederbakje omhoog te schijven, als ik dan thuis kwam was hij al uit de kooi
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Super leuk dat je ook een papegaaien soort als huisdier heb gehad.
Gelukkig heeft die van mijn nog niet uitgevonden dat je via de voederbak uit de kooi kan ontsnappen
Leuk om te lezen dat niet alleen die van mijn heel ondeugend en slim kan wezen

ja het was soms wel een boefje, maar ook heel lief
Op de foto zie je hem brokjes weghalen bij Lucky en mijn toetsenbord in beslag nemen

Wat een leuke dwerg papegaai!!!
Inderdaad een boefje. Geweldige foto's, vooral die bovenste zorgde voor een lach op mijn gezicht
Ze willen volgens mij altijd alles hebben wat ze niet mogen hebben
Die van mijn gaat er altijd met mijn tekenspullen van door.

Ha ha inderdaad wat niet mag is leuk, en ze weten het zo goed, ook de kleine vogels zijn slim.
Ik mis hem nog steeds, Ik hoop dat jij nog veel leuke momenten mag beleven met je schattige vriendje lieve Nynke

It turned out nicely!! I like the details you made on his head and on the beak (how the feathers slightly cover the beak, it's so adorable).
The head seems a bit too much attached to his body - look at the photo, his head slowly goes into his back, not that his head is part of the back (if you know what I mean
Legs could be more detailed, but are well shaded. The branch should be darker on the place that's directly under the bird and it would look better if it was more detailed and with some yellow on highlights.
I would say 8/10 :3 Well done with the feather texture by the way. I've tried to draw vulture and... it didn't look as well as I imagined. I'm thinking about trying something else instead

Thank you so much for this detailed critique, it helps me a lot 
About the color of his feathers, I agree it is too yellow. In real is more light green and his head is more yellow.
Why must Always make the camera everything looks different
Too bad for you that your drawing has not become as you expected!!!
Maybe you can post it and can i try to give some critique if you like?
most of the time i learn a lot of redraw drawing from others. then i can see how they make shadows, what the kind of colors they use.....
Maybe it will helps you also?

Cameras are one of the worst things, when it comes to traditional art.. 
I actually can't, I already threw the paper with the drawing away, because I was pissed XD but I'm working on something else now. :3

We have a scanner, but a simple one. i have use it once. and i don't like it, everything was too light.
And noooooooo. Never threw your drawing away!!!!!
I have a lot of horrible drawings when i was 13-15 years old.
I love it to look at them and see my new drawings.

I'm always losing my gums, so stupied hahhahahaha
So you are not the only one who lost things
I look forward to see your next drawing (hopefully made with sharp pencils
