Eagle Coming Together!

With the head completed, I could now focus on crafting a suitable body to attach this to as well as the eagle's legs.

I used a very basic side view of a bird to create the body using planes and adding a simple symmtery to get the completed 3d render. This was then attached to my eagle's head after adjusting the scale to best suit the head's dimensions.

The final part of this section was to create a pair of legs for my eagle. This again was created using a sideview scientific image of a chicken's leg and using planes to model it. I edited the claws slightly due to fact that an eagle's talons are much larger and more significant to an aerial Hunter.

Once this was completed, I imported the render as an object and simply scaled and attached the leg to the body. I had to mirror the leg using the symmetry modifier to create a right and left leg.
