Vulture Charcoals

Having another productive day so I’m going to make up for the lack of posts over the week and post two today!  Just finished the value pass on this fellow.  Decided to jump ahead and work on the vulture for the ABC animal book.  Was a little worried about the merging of the textures in the fur of the coat and the feathers around the neck.  I think they turned out good for the value pass and I should be able to further differentiate them when I apply the color in the painting stage.  I’m not sure who this guy is yet though I’m certain he will tell me before long.  Just have to spend a little time with him.  Could be a performer in a theater troupe.  Or a young nobleman just off the road.  Only time will tell.
