Birdmad Girl

December 1st, 2008
This girl has got a smile that can make me cry.

This girl has got a smile that can make me cry.

She flies outside this cage
Singing girl-mad words
I keep her dark thoughts deep inside
As black as stone
And mad as birds

This is based on the main character of my second NaNo novel, and the photography I did last week in Benton Park.

Had to do a little day-to-night action on the BG photo, but I am very pleased with it. Click here for full size (it’s worth it, much better at 1200px wide)

Also at Rendo for those who hang there.

    Lovely picture. I actually like her eyes best on it. Night work as always with your day-to-night skillz.

    Thanks, I am glad you like it. I love that character. But if I had three weeks and 10GB of reference photos, I could still not get that bird to look realistic. We need some raven 4.0 up in here.
