    Default Closeup pics of gw teal mount… federal duck stamp entry

    Decided to enter federal duck stamp contest this year and I’m painting American gw teal. Anyone have high resolution closeup pics of head and eyes of a mounted gw. I just started and trying to get the face and eyes correct first…. Outline then I’ll add shadows and detail.
    I have a long way to go

    Thanks

    This is the answer. Set the search to 1000 pixels minimum if they still let you do it that way...

    Can you use an eraser? Because that duck in the background over his back looks sick.

    Kidding, but cool

    Can't be of much assistance but neat to see how an artist puts a painting together! Also, a big group of GWT are my second favorite group of birds to shoot into. Nothing like the feeling when all is quiet and out of the blue you hear a big groups of GWT wings cutting through the air

    Your eye is too round. Looks like it just saw something revolting.
