at the beginning this pic was a bit too empty and a friend and talented rather young conceptartist, tobias trebeljahr helped me by adding very roughly more rocks and birds and so not only helped the composition but also the story... but refining and detailing something that someoneelse has drawn can be really hard... i always felt that what ever i detaled looked worse than the loose sketch... i'm kinda happy with the result, but this wasn't easy... in german i would say "eine schwere geburt" ... a hard birth...
Love the foreshortening and the composition. The angle the viewer is seeing from almost almost makes it seem like we're seeing from the eyes of another seagull. Beautiful colors. The yellow stands out nicely against the cooler tones. I love this, very much!
