CONCEPT: Blog entry 43
I wanted to have one final bash at a pattern before hand in, and theres a couple of ideas for back grounds that I think will make this work better...
so, starting from scratch, with the white-tailed eagle. I wanted to do this one because it's slightly different from the few that Ive done so far, and I wanted to show more how I could incorporate the food aspect of this idea.
Here are some of my initial drawings that will go make up the final pattern;

From all my past experimentations, I discovered that when the bird is all one colour, it is best to use a couple of shades of that colour, instead of just the one colour, like I am able to do with the other more colourful species...these I just use the different colours to give the impression of the shape of the bird. when they are just one colour, if I only use one colour, they lose their shape and definition and look rubbish, so a couple of shades of the same colour help give it back some of that definition, but I still want to keep it to as few colours as possible.
