Frequently asked questions

Which pencil is best to use?
Start with a graphite pencil and don't press too hard, so you can easily erase the guide lines later.
How do I make the beak look really sharp?
Draw a small curve at the end of the beak pointing downwards, just like a hook.
Can I color the eagle as well?
Of course! Give it a white head, a brown body, and a bright yellow beak for a realistic result.
What if a step doesn't work out right away?
No problem, drawing is all about practice! Use your eraser and just try the shape one more time.
