Such a powerful piece. :) though I don't think the form/color resemblances Ho-Oh that much (-.5 stars) I love everything else about this. The light and silhouette... the detail with the specks in the sky, the clash between human/legend too, and how the changed design makes the bird seem a bit more realistic... but it would've been interesting with a design somewhat more true to the original. :) Awesome piece.
