o@ HOLY CRAP THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!! It really just exudes realism - it feels as if the animal is truly there, existing in space. Maaaaan - talk about inspiration! <3 <3 <3 <3 Thank you so, so much for sharing this. ^^! This is surely a level of realism that I aspire to achieve in my own work. <3 *ogles and studies for days*
Thank you so much! You draw very realistic characters too and I learn a lot from your art ^^ this image was inspired by Christopher Rowe photography and various golden eagle head shots. Here's the main light reference: https://scontent-b-fra.xx.fbcdn.net.....mp;oe=5493EB70 It is a bit diffrent than the ref but you get the clue. The warm light is on the left, the cold on the right ^^
Oh wow - I was wondering about the lighting sources myself! That is an amazing reference for such a unique lighting situation. <3 That's very kind of you to provide the references you've worked from - thank you! It will surely help me in my attempts to get more interesting light schemes.
Awgh - I'm glad that you are able to learn from my art in turn. Cheers! ^^
