Painstakingly detailed btw, kudos to your patience and diligence, and I love the perspective

Dark, and extremely clever with the sun at the very center, casting father and son into shadow

Thank you! Most depictions of this story show the flight and fall. I thought it would be interesting to show the quiet moment before disaster. I’m happy with how it came out!

Plus - you have now mastered the art of drawing of feathers

Con - you now hate visceral hate of drawing the feathers

Anyway, great picture!

Feathered things I won’t be drawing for a while: penguins, parrots, pigeons, improvised flying escape machines, parakeets…

Stunning composition, I can’t stop looking at it. What an achingly human story you’ve told here.
