The Next Pass

Finally got back to work on this after a long work week. Headed off on a work trip in a couple days, so this is probably the last entry for a while. I'm pretty satisfied with it in its current state. Might need to spend another few minutes on the face. It's definitely a lot cleaner now. The marks are more tactile and the line weights are more effective. I find it difficult to ignore value (and in this case, the pattern on the feathers) and still try to accomplish the illusion of a change in plane. That's what's got the left side of the face looking so much heavier than the right at the moment.

If I make the time to finish up those chimney swifts, we'll be back in business on the computer...
