This was a commissioned piece. Took a fair amount of work to get the parts to work together, but it was all worth it!
I added some photo's of Shiny after he was painted by the customer. I really like the looks of it with the fresh coat of paint.
I have been wanting to do another rooster for sometime. My dad gave me a bunch of hand scythes he had laying around. My first thought was how great they would look as tail feathers. I am glad it turned out so nice.
