I spent a day at the Natural History Museum sketching a couple different couple specimens of keel billed toucans. The ink sketch is of the study skin in the photo.
It's usually pretty easy to draw from museum specimens yourself; just email them to set up an appointment! "Hey I am an artist and I would like to work from the museum collection." Museums are funded by the public for the public!
