“giving thanks” vulture done

the poor twisted thing came through firing without cracking open (although, i did sculpt him with head broken open). i gave him a waxed patina pigmented with raw umber and a touch of pearlized blue. i think he looks quite nice!
here are a couple views (with more on flickr, as always).

    WOW
    That’s the most professional piece of art you’ve seen fit to display here (and the others haven’t been at all bad)! I’m impressed.

    Fabulous! I’m guessing Turkey Vulture from the size of the nostril? Or maybe I’ thinking too hard, lol.
