Over the years I have always stayed away from making Parrot's, well even attempting to make them.
They have always been a little tricky for me for some reason, so we decided to try and make a few.
Picture two I stopped short but have an idea for a bird design so when I get a little time will carry on at a tangent with that.
I don't think any look like a Parrot as yet.
This was the next version we made.
This was Parrot two but I prefer the plumage on top of head of version one and we added a little White around the neck.
I made the beak from a 350 here and changed a couple of smaller details that you would probably have to
look closely at a few times to spot but hopefully will make it easier to construct and make the design.
I like the simpler one balloon triangle perch.
The chubby bird came about from making the Parrot when I was at picture 15.
Funny how you can go off on a tangent.
I then made a few variations on the smaller style Parrot trying to work out an easy way of fixing him to the perch.
Last Parrot that I made, still not decided what is the better way to attach his feet to the perch
and body of the Parrot. Still a works in progress but picture 20 are the best two that I like......
at the moment, he he.
Made a few more Parrot's today as I'm filming the tutorial tomorrow and like to see what variations and how it more easily all fits together.
I think some people may not realise how much effort goes into each design that I do make and post.
A few variations on the tail feathers to see what I prefer and which one fits better together for the design.
Possibly my favourite Parrot's that I have made over the years........ possibly.
