Description
I drew this last August as a birthday present for a close friend. The bird is a liberal mix of harpy eagle and red-tailed hawk. Originally I tried to draw storm clouds in the background; however, they ended up looking odd and didn't offer enough contrast with the lightning, so I blacked them out. Almost a year later, I'm still pretty proud of this piece--which isn't to say there aren't things I'd like to improve upon, but that should always be true.
