The fun of this design is the mystery behind the perceived dark mood surrounding the cardinal. His story could be going in any of several directions.



Defender of something noble, saddened by the cost of safety? Murderous psychopath? Whiney teenager who's into cutting?



What direction will you choose for his story?

My only concern is that there is nothing particularly unique about this. Anyone could produce such with a good knowledge of photo shop and a bird picture... perhaps you need to think of some kinda angle.



Sorry to be negative but its intended in a positive way!

I realize the bird wasn't technically difficult to produce. But, not every picture of a bird has a large drop of blood on its talon.



If you didn't see that, it may be too subtle. But, it's the sort of thing that when you notice it turns a cute bird picture into something totally different.

yeah no i do see it and i don't think its enough... you need to tell a little more of the story... why has he got the blood drop etc
