Booted Racket Tail

Mon Jun 1, 2009, 8:45 AM
  • Mood: Nervous
I start a commission today. I'm a bit nervous because its a fair sized piece and its a subject matter I've never painted in acrylic before, but I'm fairly confident I can get it done and masterfully so.

Its a 16X16' booted racket tail humming bird in midflight, approaching a flower (I have the flower I want I just can't remember its name).

Booted racket tails are the coolest little bird cause of thier A) Fluffly little pants, and B) Amazing tail feathers, and C) its a hummingbird, which is, the coolest species alive ever.

Do wish me luck I'm nervous beyond all recognition. :S

Good luck!!

Are the wings going to be all speed-blurred? That's one technique that I can never get down right. Anything out of focus in my paintings just ends up looking bad. :p

I'm sure you'll rock it though! Your birds and flowers are consistently fantastic!!

No, I'm using reference pics from time-lapsed photography so the wings appear to have been stopped, I contemplated the blurry wing effect and said hellz no!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! I'm going to be mailing out a package for you soon, hopefully before the end of the week!!
