I LOVE him! 😀 Is that bits of golden/bronzy interference paint in places, or just different color shading?

I was learning stripes so I restricted myself to only three colors…black, white and gold. I layered the black and gold very thin to give as much effect as possible…was worried at first it wouldn’t work!

wow, he is amazing! awesome striping and coloring.

purplecat, what kind of camera do you use? all your images seem to have a blurred lighting affect. is this intentional or the camera?

Ooh… very nice, PC. As always. I’m broke tho after the VF stuff. 😕
I really like the feather detailing. Not sure I like it on the ridge above the eye (maybe if it was a little lighter? it looks a bit dark & kinda looks like eyebrows), but I do like it on the uhm.. ear?… thing… (I don’t know bird anatomy, seriously :oops:) 😀

(And I’m just gonna joke and say the blurring is from the fumes! Hoooo boy, they’re strong at first 😉 )

High offer is 80 right now. THe effect with the slight blur in my pics is an irritating problem with my digital camera….it has auto-focus and it’s not working as well as it used to. i wish I knew how to fix it…

Have you replaced/recharged the batteries lately? Sometimes its good to start with the simple fixes before exploring the colplicated ones.

oooo I like this one.
Does your digital camera have an mode option switch (usually a cricle dial on the top)? If so turn to the flower icon or the mode representing close shots. Placing the sculpture in sunlight and stepping further away while zooming in helps quality a lot as well.

you might also want to get some lens cleaner and clean off anything that might affect the autofocus–and also the lens. 🙂

Wow, he looks neat!

While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!

Oh well done! 😀 He’s very handsome, and I love the wing barring! He reminds me of a goshawk. Beautiful color blending on his neck and shoulders, too. He’s really a fine fellow.
