Description
I've gone to the birds, really. I don't think a day has gone by in the past three months without me drawing a parrot of some type (granted, most of these are really silly margin doodles). This is an albino/blue mutation scarlet macaw.About 4.5 hours in GIMP 2 with my mouse speed set way down low. I'm not completely content with the feathers, but it's pretty much impossible to get the veins in with a mouse unless I spend twenty minutes a feather. Maybe someday, but not tonight.
The Spanish Moss brush I used to create the background was created by redheadstock

Woooo. That so pretty!
You are really getting good at using GIMP. Bravo for you!
And thank you for sharing this gorgeous drawing with us!

It's such a crazy powerful program! I think I learn something new every single time I open it. This drawing I figured out what the blur/sharpen tool can do.
There's more birds coming probably; I really haven't been drawing much else for months.

They're the most gorgeous birds. After finding out about the mutation I just knew I had to draw it.
