Description
Custom order for a Etsy-customer
Already my third Paragon Soul!
I´m still so in love with this concept, and of course, with blue macaw feathers!
The designs painted on the feathers are inspired by the "Paragon" logo from MassEffect.
The quill is handcrafted by me, assembled from seven magnificent blue wingfeathers from the common yellow chested macaw. The hold is made from satin ribbon I winded arround the end of the largest feather, decorated with a blue glass gem, a silver metall ornament and a beautifull silver wing.
Writing nib in the tip
The tribal ornaments are all handpainted by me directly on the feathers, using Citadel-Colors and a small brush.
For more quills VISIT MY SHOP! -> www.etsy.com/de/shop/MiraCraft… PLEASE NOTE: The feathers come from beloved petbirds, bred in captivity and owned by loving Birdbreeders in germany. They are naturaly lost through molt and were given to me by the owners. No bird was harmed for this piece of art!!!

How on earth do you paint of the feathers without the feather barbs separating? I tried painting feathers for imitations arrows and they all separated when painted and looked awful *cries*

I was just thinking about how many bald parrots you must own, when I read the note about the feathers being naturally lost.

Hast du die Schreibfeder eigentlich festgeklebt, oder könnte man die austauschen?

Vielen Dank!
Leider ist die Schreibfeder festgeklebt -.- Bisher habe ich noch keinen perfekten Weg gufunden sie auswechselbar einzbauen oder einen Federhalter zu integrieren...Hoffe aber das ich bald was finde

Ich habe bei meiner eine Version genommen, wo ich den größten Federkiel ausgehölt habe und darein einen zweiten, zerschnittenen Ring gesteckt habe. Jetzt kann man die Feder zwischen den äußeren Kiel und den zerschnittenen Ring feststecken (aber man muss aufpassen, dass der innere Ring nicht rausfällt). Sieht am Ende auch nicht ganz so hübsch aus und ist wohl auch eher eine Notlösung...

Das ist eine verdammt kreative Idee!

Vielleicht wenn du den Holzfederhalter so zuschneidest, dass er dünner wird und dann die Federn drauf- und drumklebst? Oder gleich alles abschneiden, außer der Spitze? Ist natürlich immer noch ziemlich dick, aber wenn man das alles schlau mit Band umwickelt klappt es vielleicht?

Genau das hatte ich vor! Zum Glück sind die Holzdinger recht abgenutzt und es ist nicht schade drum xD Gerade mit der Dicke hab ich so meine Zweifel... aber ich hoffe ich bekomm den Bogen bald raus^^

I'm so in love with those designs of yours, they make me want to try and do the same 
May I ask how you clean the feathers you use in your crafts? I'm currently trying to figure out a way to clean feathers without water (water and soap seem to work well but only on big, strong feathers, and I have many smaller ones I'd like to clean without destroying them), some crafters use borax (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax ) but it is only sold to professionals in my country due to health hazard >.< Please don't feel in a hurry to answer, I know you have many things to do
Thank you for being such an inspiration and a nice person <3
