The hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus), or hyacinthine macaw, is a parrot native to central and eastern South America . With a length (from the top of its head to the tip of its long pointed tail) of about 100 cm (3.3 ft) it is longer than any other species of parrot. It is the largest macaw and the largest flying parrot species, though the flightless kakapo of New Zealand can outweigh it at up to 3.5 kg. While generally easily recognized, it can be confused with the far rarer and smaller Lear's macaw . Habitat loss and trapping wild birds for the pet trade has taken a heavy toll on their population in the wild, and as a result the species is classified as endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature 's Red List , and it is protected by its listing on Appendix I of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

This is jsut beautiful and i love that blue color!
I see in the video you applied white first then color. What does that do? I never seen someone do that before.

Thanks!
I did it just because those feathers had some white lines mostly in other directions than the constructions of the feathers caused by light reflections. Once you add a darker tone the lines blend and stand out with the color. Besides, they marked the clearer areas highlighted by the toned paper. It's easier to darken a color tone than to lighten a darker one

I saw the thumbnail & thought "I wonder if the after photo would be of that macaw eating that white pencil."
Then I saw it was a speed paint, nice!
