Description I usually don't draw animals but it was a lot of fun though I've never really tried drawing a realistic bird before either so I hope I didn't butcher it too much

I got so excited when I finished the chickadee's body that I slacked off terribly on the feet and especially the rope TwT; I'm very sorry about that.

I want to thank `hellfirediva for being so gracious as to letting me use her awesome photograph, "Hanging On," as a reference.

::Edit::
I just realized now that the chickadee's body is lOoOooooOnger than the one in the reference photo.. oopsie ^^;;;;;;!

Yup.. used my Wacom Graphire to draw it.. the fur's not so complicated once you got the technique down ( ;

Yeah, I'm actually surprised how much you can do with a mouse owO; Tablets are so much more comfortable and easier to work with than a mouse... I hope you're able to get one

This is amazing! It really resembles one of the Americana style mid-western type paintings that my mom has about the house. XP
And the body isn't terribly long. If you feel industrious you just need to cut off a little of the white bottom and it'll be all good.
Seriously amazing.

Thanks :3

Even if I wanted to make a print, I can't. It'd be legally (and ethically) wrong for me to make a print based off of a derivative from someone else's works
