Eagle Bubble Medallion

So this isn't explicitly a wallpaper like I usually make, but if you want to use it as one that's fine with me  
I always liked the idea of those bubble-glass things you could buy and put on a lit up stand. The light would shine through the bottom of the glass and refract off of the bubbles (much like in this deviation) and highlight the bubble-shape inside while keeping the surrounding glass almost perfectly transparent. This gives the illusion that the bubble-shape is floating. Super cool!!! 

This is part of my efforts to experiment with more realistic, less abstract artworks to help add some broadness to my portfolio. I think realistic rendering skills will come more in handy in the job market... But how would I know?
