I just can't do it.This is why I always draw the eagle with diffrent wings.

I've never tried it, but i imagine it to be fairly easy..

Shouldn't be too hard with the right tools.

A drawing board or table, T-square and set squares and ruler. Set of pencils and erasers.

I just mostly scan stuff these days though, but I do try to keep my drawing skills up.

Photocopier....

Trace outline onto wood.

Get someone with jigsaw to make a stencil.

Not that hard if you have a ruler and even the most basic description of how it looks.

I never can get the talons though.

What's hard is finding the old explanation of all of the symbolism built into the Imperial Aquila.

Getting a tattoo?

I draw main body 100% accurate,but those wings are always out of proportion.
