Description
welll, it has been quite a while sicne I have submitted any birdie pics XD.and then I go and submit a rushed messy one.. >_> ah well.
This is an experiment to see if I can make something in about an hour or less XD. no lineart used, just blobbed a blue bird on then shaded it in >_>. only like 4-5 layers were used total. about 3 for the BG, and 2 for the phoenix XD.
and useed the smae brush a few differe sizes for the whole pic. and I used a little bit of dodge and burn. Because that makes thing look shineyyy 8D
and I know things look wrong with proportion, anatomy etc, like always X_x and things just look weird to me, like the wings
but yeah, itr didnt' come out too bad 
anyways... hope you like and let me know what you think. constructive crit welcome also =3.

I currently use Clip Studio Plaint, I have also used Paint Tool Sai. I did used to use Photoshop though, I used it for this drawing.
I have no idea about apps for ipads though, sorry about that. I use a Surface Pro for portable drawing which is a windows tablet.

Hey! This is amazing and beautiful!
Can I ask for a huge favor of you? Can I "borrow" this picture? I'm making a cover for something, and I want it to contain a phoenix, which has a connection to each of the four elements. I have a phoenix picture for the fire type, the earth type, and the air type, and all I'm missing is the water type. And this is perfect!
So can I have your permission to use this? I would never say that it mine and all that. I promise, cross my heart and hope to die-ish.
Say no if you want. Thanx

Well yes, there is bit of off proportion but the picture came out great!!!
And i like the 'water' phoenix idea, BTW.
Hmm...how do you do feathers and stuff on the comp? I can only do it in sketches, on paper!

Thankyou ^^
and the way i do the feathers is that I use a tablet, which is like a digital pen sorta thing XD. and i basically painted it in photoshop with it. There is no way i can do that with a mouse @_@ [i used to be able to sort of colour with the mouse, but now i lost it XD]

But it IS possible to colour like that with the mouse right? I know what a tablet is, but can't afford it. not to mention I'm in Nepal and half the things here are chinese, pirated or just plain crappy.

yeah, you probably can if you have allot of patience.. but it would be hard to get that painty look xD like you can use things like the smudge tool to blend colours, etc~ that's what i used to use, if you look at some of my really early phoenix pics from years ago [eg: [link] and [link] ] those were done with the mouse and smudge tool XD or maybe you can lower the opacity [transparency] of a brush and blend colours slowly that way, and use different sized brushes. um... I hope that helps.. lol, sorry about my bad explaining >.>.
