Quick draw eagle
So, here is a quick timelapse of the eagle. I started thinking I would go abstract with the Nikko Rull brush but then decided a sketch with the HB brush and then soft and medium airbrush with a bit of the long fur brush. Total was 6 layers with sketch on the bottom and the eye highlights on the top. I always separate the highlight and shadows as layers from the main content. 🎨 www.youtube.com/watch

I had an hour between meetings at a local college tonight so I did drew this eagle quickly in Procreate on the iPad. Very busy day/week. Drawing helps me refocus. 🎨

More work done on the chickadee. Roughing in the thin feather pattern while trying to expose wisps of white. 🎨

Starting a new graphite piece. Of course I need to do the eye first and then establish the darkest blacks first. This will be quite large when done and include some interesting bark 🎨

Most likely the last WIP I post. A few more hours left, but getting close now. Focus has been the collar but now I need to bring out more white fur 🎨

More detail done on the mouth and was able to tackle the buckle. I also reworked his left side of the face. Going to do some live drawing tomorrow probably on YouTube. I will confirm a time once I get a sense of things. 🎨

I typically draw using mechanical pencils (when not on the iPad 😊 ) but I am trying these special lumograph pencils. They are designed to preserve the blacks while also allowing for layers. 🎨
