a vector art drawing of a crow standing on a branch

The theme for today is "Scavenger" and the palette is 8lueens Palette

Need to learn how to texture

Nonetheless it's a lot more ambitious than what I'd usually draw. Reference

Practice, practice, practice.
You'll find little improvements along the way.
Look at what you want to create (birds), watch some videos on his to, implement specific assets you want to add.
(I'm no expert, just tinkering and sharing advise I received)
