The little Blue Tit loves Pomegranate too :D
Here is another little bird ready to fly for Miniaturitalia. Some little snowflakes fell today in Rome, so he'll need extra-feed to fly as far as Milan, I think ^^
The Blue Tit has wonderful colors: blue wings, yellow body, green back and a lovely black and white eye mask. He seems a fairytale character! It was hard reproducing this color, because they are so lively that in a sculpture it was the risk they become false. Maybe this is just the magic of the Blue Tit: bringing in the sky the colors of the wild flowers and fields.
I used the same only-one-bristle brush that I used for the little Long-Tailed Tit to paint it, and the acrylic colors for miniatures too. In this case painting was more hard than sculpting, I need to study volume and space to put the color with great attention, but I think in the end it was enough like the little one that came to visit me some time ago ^^
Who knows, will he recognize himself seeing this little miniature? ^^
