Updated Predator for another commission and yet again, it's another that puts the old one in my collection to shame. I'd happily say sod the money and keep it, but that'd be mean ; )
Again all Procreate and Fimo on this one and I'm very happy with how it turned out.
Comments always welcome!
Ospreys are masters of fishing. This particular osprey was looking for a perch to have his breakfast.
Model: actor/magician/wolf activist Steve Wastell with 3 wolf-pups.
These pups were 3 weeks old when Steve and his wife rescued them and their mom from an illegal backyard breader. Here they are 8 weeks old and a total handful.
The title refers to predators at the top of the food chain. I wanted this shot to be a combo of cute/scary :)
Close up of lunch,This Dragonfly had a good meal not sure what it was eating but it was a bid bug!!!
This Great Blue Heron didn't even notice me standing just five feet away from it
because its eyes are on a fish hiding in the water plants. :)

I meant to post this the other day, but just haven't gotten to it yet! A few Predators I have been working on ;)

Well, this build drained me completely. I've always wanted to build a Predator, but thought it was pretty much impossible. Paddy's fantastic version was just the push I needed to give it a try.
So first things first, I think it turned out terrible. :)) At least it sort of looks like an disproportionate Predator.
This definitely is not the thing aI wanted after all the work I put into it. Still, I at least managed to complete it, at times it felt like I never would.
Well sort of, I'd rather treat this as a wip, as I didn't even bother adding details to finish it off... will probably revisit this sometime.
This beautiful Damselfly was taken using my Canon kiss x5 (identical to the 600d) with my Canon 100mm macro lens.
Damselfly (suborder Zygoptera), any of a group of predatory, aerial insects that are in the order Odonata. Damselflies are found mainly near shallow, freshwater habitats and are graceful fliers with slender bodies and long, filmy, net-veined wings. Damselflies are generally smaller, more delicate, and fly weakly in comparison with dragonflies (suborder Anisoptera).
Their colors can be stunningly vivid. Wingspans among the 2,600 damselfly species range from 18 mm (0.71 inch) to about 19 cm (7.5 inches) in Megaloprepus caerulatus, a giant damselfly of tropical Central and South America.
Damselflies can usually be distinguished from dragonflies by their thinner, needlelike abdomens and by the way they hold their wings when at rest.
With few exceptions, damselflies hold their wings vertically and together, rather than horizontally and spread apart.
Also, the four wings are almost identical in size and shape and in the vein patterns. The large eyes of damselflies differ from those of dragonflies in that they are always widely separated, rather than close together or touching each other.
Predators and prey comes in all forms of shapes and sizes and that is true for both the avian and insect world. I spotted this male Blue Grosbeak in the marsh and it was very active diving into the bush and coming up with what appears to be a dragon fly ( Not sure). this was definitely it's most favorite perch and all I had to do was wait.
This is either a juvenile Red Tailed Hawk, Coopers Hawk or Sharp Shin Hawk. Spotted in the thick brush. Having looked at the article that Leslie referenced in her comment, it may well be a Red Tailed. One of the tests to tell if it's a red tailed vs. other is whether it's beefy or not. Red Tailed tend to be "beefy" and Coopers or Sharp Shinned, not so much. When observing it yesterday, both my wife and I simultaneously said, "that's a big one"
The break between the beginning and the end of the work was huge, but unlike other WIPs, here I found the strength to finish what I started.
As all you know this is type of the falcon's family, in our country called (Gernas) in Arabic (قرناص), and easily to be or become tame and accustom to human. you can see the note on shot where the falcon is tied up by rope and during it's meal the owner catch it!
Sorry for bloody scene, but this is life!!
