Questions & AnswersHi! I'm Karen for Expert Village. Next, we want to have some feathers. We're going to come off from the other side of the beak. This is the beak here that's attached to the body. We're going to make almost like waves in the ocean. That's our first feathers. Then it's up to you if you want to bring the feathers up here as if there's a tail or if you want to keep it low and go all around the fruit. We're going to make feathers all around the fruit. You draw waves. My marker's not so great here. Just go like little points and curves at the end before you make another point. Now we've come all the way around the fruit. This is the backside of the neck. This neck comes swishing down here and up. We're going to have a feather there too. You want to travel around this way to see how it looks and then travel around this way to see how it looks. Now, if you don't like it you can move it and just adjust those feathers. Once you are happy with your design. We'll turn that around. Then we'll be cutting the fruit.
