Step 10: Darken the top edge of the initial circle for the first part of the head. On the right side, draw a long, sloping line that connects to the body for the back of the Gouldian finch's head and neck. Under the beak, draw a short, curved line along the path of the initial circle for the rest of the head.

Step 11: Darken the right side of the guides in the middle for the first part of the Gouldian finch's folded wing. Lightly sketch a long, diagonal line inside the body for the inner edge of the folded wing. When you get the shape of the bird's wing right, darken the line. Make the line curvier. Add short strokes at the top and long lines at the bottom for the feathers.

Step 12: Use the sloping line under the body, on the right side, as a guide to draw the bird's first leg. Follow the path of the guide and draw the shape of the leg around it. Make the tip pointy for the nail. Make the line curvier at the bottom for the toe. Add an extra curved line on the left side for the other toe. On the right side, draw a small, curved shape that's pointy at the bottom for the toe that's on this side of the finch's foot. Make the shape of the leg thin. At the top, draw a series of short strokes for the feathery base.

Step 13: Draw the shape of the Gouldian finch's other leg, foot and toes around the guide on the left. Add the toe on the right side and another short, curved shape behind it for the toe that points backward. The toe in the middle should be the biggest and longest. Add a curved line on the left for the toe on the other side.
