Raven Sculpture Revisited

I was unpacking a box and came across this guy that I did in December of last year:

Crouching-Raven-Bird-Sculpture0

He wasn’t looking so good – especially those feet! LOL. I have decided to enter the wildlife sculpture competition next month so I thought I’d practice on this Raven and see if I could get him to look a bit more realistic :) Here is how he turned out:

Baby Raven

This fuzzball little baby raven is 5 x 3 x 3 inches, feet 4 inches wide

Eek – I really need a new camera :(

2/22: Picture update! OK, three steps back and set to 2X produces a better shot :)

These birds are so smart! I saw a video of one raven using the cross walk to drop nuts in the street, so cars would drive over them and crack them open for him. Amazing :)

9 x 5.75 x 3 inches
