The only reason why I drew this picture in the advanced boards, is because I needed a bigger space to draw on. I wish the intermediate boards could be made bigger than 6oo x 600. Thank you chalkdust and catfish for your nice comments....I do appreciate it. :)

You're welcome, I think the textures are fun to use, but they can be tricky. It usually looks a little more natural if you subtly change the color on the curvaceous part of the bodies. Make sense?

The Dalliance of The Eagles
Walt Whitman

Skirting the river road, (my forenoon walk, my rest)
Skyward in air a sudden muffled sound, the dalliance of the eagles,
The rushing amorous contact high in space together,
The clinching interlocking claws, a living, fierce gyrating wheel,
Four beating wings, two beaks, a swirling mass tight grappling,
In tumbling turning clustering loops, straight downward falling,
"Till o'er the river pois'd, the twain yet one, a moments lull,
A motionless still balance in the air, then parting, talons loosing,
Upward again on slow-firm pinions slanting, their separate diverse flight,
She hers, he his, pursuing.

WOW, Gillie, I'm in awe, my jaw hit the table on this one. I spent the day out watching these beauties flying high, fishing, and just being free, you captured their majestic look spot on!

Love it! The focus to the front and faded out facet to the rear is lovely....nice focal point to the subject of this drawing. Love the water drip and chrome shine to it too.
