King fisher nearly finished

Here is my king fisher.

I have spent the week obsessing over getting her right.

She is much larger then I am used to painting as I'm relatively new and normally only do 6x6 inch.

This is closer to a3.

Where can she be improved? I'm thinking the right side feathers are a problem area.

And possibly a bit more variation in the back ground.
