Golden Eagle Update - Color Receipes
I toned down the right eye on the left pic and I think that is an improvement - this is meant to be one side in light and one going into shadow. Does it need more toning down? Also should I put some more semblance of feather work into the shadow side so it doesn't look like such a distinct line of stopping?
