In this comprehensive tutorial, you'll learn step-by-step how to create a stunning and lifelike claw of a blue Macaw. The principles I cover in this tutorial will empower you to paint realistic claws for all birds. I will show you my techniques and insights I use to capture the texture, both rough and smooth, striking tallens, scaly flesh, colours and contrast of the claws.

What you'll get:

• 1.5 hours of detailed instruction from start to finish of the claw
• I will share my step-by-step process of creating a realistic claw in a straight forward and easy to follow approach
•  I will demonstrate how to paint the sooth curved surfaces of the talons, the rough scales of the fingers, the smooth fleshy appearance of the foot and all the details in between.
• I will share the thoughts behind the layering process, compare it to how I work with oil paint, and make painting any claw a straight forward process.
• I will show you how to bring in additional vibrant colours that will make the painting more beautiful than the reference.

By the end of the tutorial, you will have the techniques and knowledge necessary to paint any claw realistically and with ease.

This is the second part of a two part tutorial. Part one covers how to paint the beak of birds.
