Carving A Bird - Making An American Goldfich From Tupelo Wood

My process for turning a block of tupelo wood in to an American Goldfinch ( Spinus tristis ). The majority of this sculpture is carved using my Dremel 3000.

The paint was all Liquitex acrylics.
The white was 80% Titanium White and 20% Raw Umber.
The yellow was 80% Cadmium Yellow and 20% Titanium White (I'm guessing on the percentages).
The black was 50% Ultramarine Blue, 40% Burnt Umber and 10% Mars Black

I used 5mm dark brown eyes (link below).
