Sketch
I |
|
When funding attempts failed the project began to take shape
self-funded via Scotian Ironworks. These funding attempts resulted
in drawings to help conceptualize a rendering of how the project
would take shape.
[right] First sketch that illustrated spirit. Drawn during
historic White Jaun (blizzard) and considered symbolic for Scott
to begin -next on to the forge. |

Concept
Art I
Various visual aids were incorporated in the design of the piece. Shaughan
Williams provided this image which became the model for the great detail
that would later appear in the Eagle's wing designs.

|
Phase
I
Several months later the first stage in the actual building of the project
began - the head! Scott recalls this stage of the design critical in importance
as the Eagle's expression here had to to be just right to convey the message. |

Phase I
Seven years prior a stuffed eagle, provided by Acadia University, became
one of the three dimensional pieces which inspired Scott to craft the
sculpture based upon. The stuffed eagle's powerful beak became a great
focal point. Numerous measurements resulted in the precise recreation
of detail.
