Description i've been thinking of which drawing to redo since the beginning of this contest. today is the last day and finally i come up with something.

now that i have better ink colors, better paper, better brushes and more experience, i should be able to do a better ink painting of this old deviation:



the improvement are in the color choices, the more realistic rendition of its feathers, the better angles of its wings (the last one looked like it is going to stall), the composition of the whole painting (wider scope for the newer one shows a better ability of planning ahead, on my part), much better materials and equipment that i work with.

last, but not least the better concept behind the newer painting, which is matching to the inspiration behind this "back-to-school" contest.

it is explained in detail in the full version of the newer hawk painting here:



tell me what you think.

Wow a lot of improvement, especially on the feathers, but they are both really good

Amazing improvement.
The first one was already amazing, but apparently 5 years do make a huge difference o.O
