This is one of my favourite pieces. But it's also the one that took me by far the longest time to get the right materials. It was so hard to get the colours I imagined. Believe me or not, I have searched three years to get those great beads: high-quality japanese delica beads. I have not worked with them before, but they instantly convinced me. The quality of these beads is simply outstanding. So, to all the beaders out there: Try them out, they are worth their money!

The colour concept of the bird is fully done by me, I only used some guidelines for the body itself. I tried to make it look like a flame, as a phoenix always goes up in flames before it is reborn from the ashes. The branch it is sitting on is also done by me without guidlines.

Woa my first DD! Never would have thought of that!! So many many thanks to =Soulia for suggesting and `UnicornReality for featuring!!

I liked your peacock sculpture, but somehow I missed this one! It is absolutely gorgeous, and amazingly realistic (or as realistic as a mythological creature made of flames can be...)

I loved the way you worked out the colors on the wings , must have taken ages to put them together to get this gradient of oranges

This is so cool. I love it.

Just one question: what is the frame is made of? Wire is what I'm guessing.

Yeah, you're right, it's wire.

sheorun In reply to mychemforever [2011-10-21 08:52:13 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it took far longer than my other pieces, mostly because of the wings. I had to try out a lot of different colour concepts, until I found the one you can see now. Normally pieces like that take me two days, but this one took a whole week
