The Art of Simulating Eagle Feathers

Rating:
Summary: An outstanding "how to" guide.
Review: Bob Gutierrez's Art Of Simulating Eagle Feathers provides an exceptional handbook on how to prepare and paint feathers to produce realistic substitute eagle feathers for projects. Techniques are intricate and capture the detail needed for authentic-looking Native art works.

Rating:
Summary: A waste of paper and time!
Review: I have tried several methods and techniques of simulating eagle feathers more or less successfully but the techniques offered in this book are downright ridiculous! How can one approach a substance as fragile as a feather wane with sticky oil paints! Also the reader doesn't learn anything about the details of eagle feather colorations, nor about the average sizes (neither length nor width! ) of feathers. This is a book that will leave the buyer/reader pretty much disappointed.
