Fine Line / StippleTechnician's Notes
Use a 5RL for dynamic line weights, ensuring swift, tapered pull-outs on feather tips and flourishes. Layer the delicate pepper shading in the inner plumage and lotus using a 3RL at low voltage with a consistent whip or pendulum motion, preserving open skin highlights for maximum contrast.
Longevity Forecast
The bold, tapered black outlines will retain the bird's graceful silhouette and clarity for over a decade. The fine stipple shading on the inner feathers and lotus will gradually soften and coalesce into a smooth, muted grey tone over 5 to 10 years.
