Description

Yes..no creative title today

Did this for art homework, my teacher said i could do mine digitally ^3^ We had to do something with a splash so i did mine as a kingfisher fishing and just emerging from the water

I've never drawn a bird on photoshop before oxo ..or water splashing x__x

Used this as a ref [link]

Time taken: around 6 hours

Edit;; 2-11-09 - Changed the water of the background ;3

Holy Crapsicles! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/m…" width="15" height="15" alt="

Alrighty then, the feathers on the wings and the wings themselves are simply beautiful <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/e/e…" width="15" height="15" alt="

I think the eye could be improved by making it look more real, same with the splash, but it's your first try so it's a good attemt. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/m…" width="15" height="15" alt="

Overall this is a very eye catching realism picture, and quite life like.

Where the hell did you learn how to draw wings? *dies*
