I love the sunset/silhouette!

LOL! I was thinking the same thing with my chirpy vocal birds. The upper beak on the one was an accident. I had to cover a dot:-)

Thanks Maggie!
The feather is not so pretty as the one I've made in my challenge design but has become pretty good.

About the cartoon face, when I was done we couldn't stop laughing about it.
The music is made by Quintino,he is a DJ from the city where I live!!!!
In this tiny,tiny country The Netherlands!!
He is very well known around the world by this music.(I love it)
(it is a remix of the song made by Cidinho & Doca - Rap Das Armas Parapapa)

@ RAE ,I love your design!! Great colors!

Wow, he is great! Love what he does. btw I think both of your feathers are gorgeous!

by Melania Thu Mar 10, 2011 12:17 am

Wow!! That is fantastic. I love it. It looks like it took a very long time and a very steady hand. AMAZING!!!!

Rae wrote: thanks Maggie!! Gotta say that was so stressful, man, no room for error once you start with the black!!! Don't think i'll be in a rush to try that again.

Totally know what you mean, I did a farm sunset/silhouete design last year for a tractor show and omg, if you mess the black up, there's almost no saving it! I was kinda glad I only had one request for it, lol.

by Rae Thu Mar 10, 2011 1:52 am

wow, thanks everyone. i nearly didn't post that one, glad i did. Very Happy

by Rae Thu Mar 10, 2011 1:55 am

oh i meant to say....Anita i watched your feather video, that was great thanks. feathers have been driving me nuts, but i feel inspired to give them another try. yours are so good.

by Daizy Thu Mar 10, 2011 7:41 pm

Awesome entries guys! I almost feel ashamed to post this, but anyway...

I love painting feathers (funny, as I am terrified of birds and feathers)

Here is another one...

I used a 5/8 flat brush for the base and a 0 round for the white higlights
The base is a split cake of red pink and god (not sure of the brand) and the highlights are in wolfe metallic white.

Anita, what brushes are you using for the feather?

by pjhamel Thu Mar 10, 2011 10:19 pm

Beautiful work, guys!!!
Hopefully I will have something to add soon. I have been busy working on a 20 page paper for one of my psych classes(yes, I know I am a nerd for doing homework over spring break). I am going to try to take a break from the research and the writing and get some fp in tonight or tomorrow.

by Tilly - Formerly Punky Thu Mar 10, 2011 10:23 pm

Hey, don't feel bad PJ, I'm going to the hospital tomorrow to use their medical library for research on a case study I'm doing that's due next week. Homework is a never ending plague of college, and the more we do ahead of time, the sooner we can get it all over with!

Now in reference to the thread... lol

Loving the designs everyone! Daisy, I love your work, so delicate and well put together! All these great designs are making it hard for me to come up with something...

I use a flat brush with a rounded top #8, First one on the picture (I do not know how you call them)
But you must drag very lightly over the skin, use only the tip of the brush!

I think she's talking about a chisel brush. That's what it looked like in the video anyway.

OMG you guys are such a talented bunch!!!!! So greatful that you are willing to share your AMAZING talent!!!

by nancy! Fri Mar 11, 2011 4:45 pm

Daizy, why feel ashamed? you can never post too much in my opinion.
Maybe you are painting feathers just to get control over 'the birds' Smile

Your new avatar is so so cute. The look on that little face....
