Trade with komera on FA: She wanted Stellar's Jays.

I tried just doing shading with marker and my scanner ate most of it of course. I killed 5 markers... so I have to replace 5 markers.
I need marker money but I'm too lazy to take up commissions. Looks like I'll be doing just colored pencil art for a bit lol.

Anyways, the marker I was using for the sky died halfway through. I was able to make it look smooth IRL but the scan decided to not look like the picture is does in person. I'm sorry for the blotchy sky. I dislike how it scanned it.

Overall I am happy with the shading, especially on the birds and the nest. I had a lot of fun with this picture, I hope you like my birds and their babies. :D
