ooo glad you're gonna try it... I'm quite sure with how well you do planes, that a bird won't be too difficult for ya ;)

laurael (Apr 15, 2004)

This is going to be just as beautiful as the other birds you did...and red too...hurray! Loving the look of the front of it already...detailed...

LovelyLori (Apr 15, 2004)

thanks laurael... it takes soooo much patience, have to take so many breaks!

laurael (Apr 15, 2004)

But this one will be worth it...just take those breaks and rest that hand...lol.

LovelyLori (Apr 15, 2004)

what kills me is I'm really lefty! aaAAAH!

Gigandas (Apr 15, 2004)

Damn, this is looking wonderful!

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 15, 2004)

Oh! I absolutely love this one! You are getting better and better at the birds... (not that you weren't great on the first one, but you know what I mean) Hey, you can drag the layers in Lascaux, just make a new one and put it behind the bird to make a different background. The dimension on this one is really, really good... he looks so round...

LovelyLori (Apr 15, 2004)

I'm almost scared to try that, I have no idea how to drag the layer and all that.. but thanks for that tip, I'll see what happens.. eek... and thanks you two!

davincipoppalag (Apr 15, 2004)

Hey..this bird's a redhead too!!! lol Dragging the layers is easy Lori...left click on the layer you want to move..and hold the button down while you move the layer over or under the one you want then let go... (do this over on the left margin where the layers list shows)

emmamommalag (Apr 15, 2004)

Oooh, this is beautiful, Lori. And red's my favorite color.. gotta go see if you've done a cardinal.

LovelyLori (Apr 15, 2004)

yeah but Dave... is this going to work considering this is all one layer I've done so far?

thug (Apr 16, 2004)

awesome, now you have to do the female, they are beautiful too and quite different (I'm an ex bird watcher)

davincipoppalag (Apr 16, 2004)

LovelyLori (Apr 16, 2004)

LovelyLori (Apr 16, 2004)

Wraith (Apr 16, 2004)

Wow! It actually feels as if bird is moving! I can almost see it moving its eyes, and jiggling its wings around. Great drawing LovelyLori!

mooseflower (Apr 16, 2004)

This is so realistic, my cockatiel is singing to it! Congratulations, you have receved Kiwi's tweet of awsomeness!

LovelyLori (Apr 16, 2004)

lol... hi Kiwi! :)

laurael (edited Apr 16, 2004)

This came out quite beautiful...love the shading around the beak...great face. Boy, am I glad to see that butt crack put to rest, lol!

LovelyLori (Apr 16, 2004)

what? you no like my butt crack? LOL Glad ya like the boidie!

laurael (Apr 16, 2004)

I love your boidie. The butt crack, on the other hand, well, let's just say...I now can't get it out of my mind...lol.

Gigandas (Apr 16, 2004)

It's finished XD.I really like the bird's features^^.Something about the wings makes it look incomplete though.....it could be that there's too much of a solid area on its wings and it clashes with the detailed texture of its body.But the body itself is really well done.The night sky goes well with it too.Another awesome piece :)...

craptastic_spaztic (Apr 16, 2004)

WOW! Much impressed. Big thumbs up.

Aubrey (Apr 23, 2004)

Very cute Lori, you draw birds really well.
