Description
Nope, this is not a mutated bird
, those extra legs are the youngsters trying to warm up.Drew this one in Italy.
The feathers were a pain, honestly.
I've spent about 6-8 hours or so drawing this one
Hope you like it!

You might at least give credit to the photographer (me!) that you blatantly copied this from ... otherwise known as a copyright infringement!
You would think that artists of all people would have some respect for the creative work product of others.

Hello there,
First of all I would like to apologize for angering you in this way.
I would also like to make clear that I draw only for the fun of it. I draw because I like doing it and because it feels good when someone tells me I've done a good job.
Secondly, at the time I drew it, I was still a beginning artist with no real understanding of copyright and giving credit to others(mainly photographers)
I have taken a look at your site and I've read that you have indeed stated that any unauthorised use(or copying through any other media) is strictly prohibited.
I, however, saw this photo in the National Geographic magazine and decided to draw it since it was a very good photo and a challenge to draw.
I am editing the description right now!
