Dang, can't believe your friend discovered a new species of crow! ;)
I always love the way you draw wings; the feathers look accurate but not too complicated!
The steam effect is nice as well! Was that added digitally or did you do it traditionally somehow?

Thanks! I love drawing wings, but I hate doing intricate detail work (especially in colored pencil), so I'm always trying to find ways to simplify the lines while still keeping them accurate. I also almost always do drawings like this without reference, there's only so many little details my brain can remember xD

And yeah, I added the steam effect digitally. I was going to do it traditionally, but I was really tired and had completely finished coloring the drawing before I realized "whoops, I was going to add a steam effect.) So to photoshop for some tweaks it went.
