Normally I hang out in the Big Game forum, but this drawing just has to go here. I just completed this drawing over the weekend. It will be used for the cover of our local county phone book. When I get the original back I'm considering making a set of limited edition prints from it, if there is enough interest? So if any of you folks think that you'd be interested in buying a print of this please email me and let me know. Even if you aren't interested I truly hope you enjoy viewing the picture. Enjoy, Troy Adams (a.k.a. Big Sky) <br> ![[Linked Image]](http://216.88.101.234/GRAFX/0-PICPOST/TADAMS/pheasantDrawing.jpg)

Nice work! <br> <br>I've been playing with watercolor resently and have found thatbirds in genral are not the easiest subject matter. I'm just happy thatonly a few my deer look like a weener dog ![[Linked Image]](/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif) . <br>How large is the original?

You know, I meant to measure that drawing before I sent if off to phone book company, but I forgot. Just guessing I'd have to say that the drawing is roughly 12"x12". I had to smile at your comment about birds not being the easiest subject matter. The friggin things have waaaaaaaay too many feather's don't they? I about went crazy hoping that I'd finally get through all those feathers!!!

I once tried doing a drawing of a offspry for a photo I had. My drawing was about 3" x3", and it took almost 6 hours, and wan't all that good.

Troy, you're going to hate this, but- how much would it cost me to have it colorized? ![[Linked Image]](/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif) <br> <br>Gorgeous work, as usual!- Sheister

BCR, how'd you know it was a banty rooster? I thought I had everyone fooled into thinking it was a rooster pheasant.

Kev, is this a test. I have no idea what birds they hunt in S.E. AK. I live in northeast Montana. Here we hunt pheasant, sharptailed grouse, hungarian partridge, and turkeys.
