Another small bird built of cartonnage over a hen's eggshell. Glue is Modge Podge, paper is brown grocery bag paper, paint is Ceramcote Acrylic.
He is 5" from beak to tail, 8" from wing-tip to wing-tip and just under 3 ounces in weight.

Thank you, Janneke. I'm so glad you like the birds. I would be happy to share the technique. Do you have specific questions?
Best, Scylla

I particularly like the curl on the wing feathers. A nice touch.
