Farsight the Talking Eagle from 'The Last Battle', the final instalment of 'The Chronicles of Narnia'.

speed paint, 1 hour in photoshop 7.0, reference photo here by ~slowriot

Warning: spoiler ahead.

***

"Two sights have I seen," said Farsight. "One was Cair Paravel filled with dead Narnians and living Calormenes: the Tisroc's banner advanced upon your royal battlements: and your subjects flying from the city -- this way and that, into the woods. Cair Paravel was taken from the sea. Twenty great ships of Calormen put in there in the dark of the night before last night."

No one could speak.

"And the other sight, five leagues nearer than Cair Paravel, was Roonwit the Centaur lying dead with a Calormene arrow in his side. I was with him in his last hour and he gave me this message to your Majesty: to remember that all worlds draw to an end and that noble death is a treasure which no one is too poor to buy."

"So," said the King, after a long silence, "Narnia is no more."

~extracted from Chapter 8, 'What News the Eagle Brought', "The Last Battle", by Clive Staples Lewis.

As a Nighthawk, all raptors fascinate me. This one is amazing. Photo-realism at its best.

I am impressed. Well done.
