Feathers

Great start in experimenting with the different textures and patterns on this majestic bird of prey. It looks like the hawks we have where I live. Something does feel a little off about the positioning and proportions. Without seeing the reference, my first impression was that the body seemed elongated and I’m not sure if the wing is sticking out a little (or slightly raised?). But, that’s probably something you would have clarified if you went further with the shading and detail. Beautiful attention to detail around the beak, too!
