Yer crow still needs some fine-tuning, lol!

I know Maybe if I keep drawing them one day I'll get it figured out (fingers crossed)

You will. Step one. You've put little knobs on the "elbow joint" of the wing. Get rid of those. A bird's wing, in order to be aerodynamic, has to be a smooth curve, at least when in flight.

thanks So less bat-like and more crow-like

Hang in there. It took Charles Schultz a few years to get Woodstock just right.

Seems birds are hard to draw for some reason.

Well, there are a LOT of crows around here so I'm sure I'll get lots of practice

Hm, a black bird attacking a white bird, symbolic of the eternal cosmic conflict between good and evil in the universe...

actually they were dancing around each other more than attacking

It was just one interpretation of your painting. Many are possible. It's rather like the Bible that way.

 

[BethAnne]

Yes, many interpretations

J' Aine Crow ... did you know the word ain in ancient Celtic ... then one has to wonder about Celtic penetration in the King James expedition ...

With everybody in kilts some were confused on the male/female identifications and thus chaos in the dance!

Expect screeching in the hills ... isles of homme?

 

[BethAnne]

I don't know...I just don't know...is this better??? They don't look like bats any more so that's an improvement, right??

 

[BethAnne]

 

[BetteTheRed]

The wings look more realistic without the knobs.

The birds in this one look pretty good. Gulls (since they're white)?

 

[BethAnne]

@BetteTheRed Thank you!!!! @Mendalla yes, gulls

 

[BetteTheRed]

Crows heads are sleeker and pointier than gull's heads, yes? Your crow's heads are a bit too round.
