Absolutely awesome. It looks even better than the original picture. It is definitely one that should be enteresd in a show. Good luck to you.

Thanks everyone. I'd like to do a pheasant using the same technique, there are several roaming our garden on a daily basis and the plumage is so beautiful with the russets, reds and greens.

Gai I'm sorry the machine didn't work out, what specifically didn't you like? Perhaps tell me by PM so as not to hijack?

AWESOME!!!!!

Wonderful Job

And if you don't win - I'll be surprised. An excellent job!

I hope you plan on entering it into some sort of fair or contest. It looks to be a prize winner to me. I love all the feather details.
