This was the weirdest technique I've ever used...
With a ref. I did the whole bird in ballpoint pen and then I worked into it with paint. Thus I lost half of the feather texture and the scanner didn't help (had to touch up on photoshop). :(
But I'm fairly happy with the effect of the background and I like peregrine falcons! :love:



Used watercolours, paint, ballpoint pen and coloured pencils.

wow! i love this! :love: the overall finished effect is so original! i dunno what it is about it, but the background makes it so smooth, yet the falcon itself is so harsh and detailed. great job! absolutely ador the face! :D

the bird looks v.regal...if birds could pull it off
is that water I spy in the bottom lefthand corner?
v.nice detail with the feathers, can't believe you had the patience to do it all in ballpoint pen :P

Thanks!
Yes. It's water, because I tried to put in the ocean but then I overdid it so I had to sponge it out which is why it looks faded.
this is so insanely awesome
i wish i could draw like you :)

yay for the sponge!!
y'know I only just thought of it, but the background reminds me of those watercolourish paintings that the chinese, or japanese, or just the asian countries do.
hope that made sense :S
