I gave myself a small challenge..to take the body of a phoenix and to apply to it the colors of a Lesser Bird of Paradise In honesty I think it turned out really well.
Thank you for using my lineart! ^^ I too think you did good job with the coloring. But isn't that bird a bee-eater instead of a bird of paradise? [link]
