This plumage didn't turn out exactly how I wanted. the colours and shading look right, but the feathers look out of tune. I don't like its perspective, and I don't like these feathers, it somehow lacks a soul.
The watercolours pencils however were bloody good. I used Staedtler Luna, and brushes size 8 and size 2. Watercolour pencils needs a bit of practice to figure out shading, strokes, and pressure application for colour intensity.
Having said this however they lack the depth of proper water colour cakes.
But I wish to rectify on this feather folly, and make something nicer, better. More harmonious. This drawing lacks harmony. It's disjointed and doesn't rhyme, and we can't have that..can we?
