Description Parus major is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. They have a great size among the tits group with a length around 12-14 cm. They're primarily insectivorous, but also can feed on small fruits. It's a migratory bird and can be seen, at some point of the year, all along Europe, great part of Asia and in the North of Africa. It has a distinctive black stripe in his chest and very bright colours, being yellow most of its body, blue and green back and wings, and black and white head.

(Needless to be said, due to this drawing being done with pencils, the colours cant be appreciated, but i hope you like it either way)

This piece was made with 0'5 and 0'35 HB mechanical pencils, and 8B, 6B, 4B, 3H, 2H & HB classic pencils in about four hours.
Here an example of how looks this bird in reality (not the photo taken as model ):

As always, hope you like this art as the rest of my gallery.
And remember: A comment  is always appreciated.

Thank you & See you.

Woah, such amazing detail! The little birdie is very very cute ^-^ The values are captured very well, and the texture for the feathers really makes it look real. As does the texture on the branch. Nice work :')

DavidLuna In reply to RynkaWorks [2014-05-24 19:44:38 +0000 UTC]

I j-just don't know. To protect it from stealing for other webs? Anyways, watermark size can't be chosen, i guess.

oh, didn't know that.
I just don't see the point in them, if someone wants to use your stuff for personal use - it's awesome. if for commercial - you can sue them and get, if not your money's worth - then at least the exposure. Right now there's more watermark than bird lol. It's like games with DRM in them. all they're hurting are the people interested in taking a look, thieves will steal what they wish regardless of your measures.
I mean, have you seen how many foolish businesses use shutterstock stock with the watermarks on?

Nice work on the texture.  I can see the feathers and the bark of the branch.  The value is very well balanced as well.

oh i'm really grateful to hear this. Thank you so much. I sometimes watch this birds in the wild, but this drawing was made from a photography in a book as model.
Tried to give it all the life i could, even being black and white.

Again, thank you!
