So, here it is my first realistic painting!

I tried to show the embodiment of this well known myth when the bird starts igniting into flames and how she resigns herself to her fate.
Everything painted in Photoshop CS4 with my beloved wacom Graphire 4

About 40 hours including looking for references, taking lots of pics to myself for the pose and hand. References for the feathers were from sxc.hu and cgtextures. Reference for the face: [link]
Hope you like it!
