Getting there with the first final piece

So in the last few days I've been starting on the final pieces. I've been creating lots of smaller images that will be put together inside the silhouettes of the birds.

Here's one small image of a Green Sea Turtle. I created it with a combination of pen, colouring pencils and water colours. I'm particularly proud of this image. I only meant to spend 20 minutes or so on it but it ended up taking over 3 hours. Think it was worth the effort though. The Green Sea Turtle is another species of animal from the Midway Islands which is effect by the North Pacific Garbage Patch.

And here is one of the albatrosses that I have started working on. It's slowly getting there. It's not quite complete yet as I want to add text and a few other things, but I'm pleased with how it's looking so far.
