Description
A little glimpse of the future.In my current extended canon, Aquilliam , the brother of Marquila RocBeak , is the present ruling Laird of their mountaintop home of Hawkcrag.
However, he has never actually settled down and found a mate, unlike his older brother.
As Marquila's daughter, therefore Aquilliam's niece, Durungula "Strongtal" RocBeak is currently the only successor to the RocBeak family title.
If the circumstances don't change, this could become Strongtal's destiny.

Heya Danbuster, you asked for critique on this regal looking eagle and critique you shall receive.
Vision) The image here is so bright and vivid, I'm gonna give this a full score! The fact she's drawn accurately is a nice touch and she definitely has that confident look like her dad here. She's a golden eagle and she's golden that's for sure.
Originality) Drawing birds of prey have been around since the ancient times, either it's for mythological reasons, story telling or otherwise, raptors/birds-of-prey have been a powerful character to use due to their RL counterparts in the wild inspiring others. Durungula Fiona Rocbeak here is a shining example of that, same with the other Rocbeaks.
Technique) For a quick vector color here, the linework is solid and her details are otherwise well done and colored. Her tail and wing tip details is a nice touch to make her stand out (without her bonnet) from the other eagles here, so I give it a decent score.
overall Impact) I'm giving this 4 stars out of 5! I think there's really a lot of things you accomplished nicely and yet when I look at this, I think there could've been things added or altered but you did a fine job overall.
Keep up the awesome works! ^^

Thanks very much for the critique!
Yeah, one thing I wonder about here is maybe I should have made the rocky perch a darker shade of grey perhaps? It practically disappears...

Well with all the sunlight that's going off, then it should be ok I guess. But still, keep practicing ^^

Thanks very much!
Yup, I'm sure she'll do fine, with her father and uncle to guide her into the role.

Strongtal's looking very regal and proud here with that pose, I would say she'd make a worthy successor.
