Rat Creature's Journal

Fandom: Temeraire Series by Naomi Novik
Characters/Pairings: Iskierka
Media used: pencil, fine liner pen with waterproof indian ink, acrylic paint, a bit of white conté chalk
Rating/warnings: G, none
Notes/comments: The coloring didn't turn out quite like I intended, but it's not that bad considering that it's only the second time I colored anything with acrylic glazes. (gah, this is actually one of those "I'm new to this" apologist author's/artist's notes, isn't it? >.< ) Also for some reason my scanner not only produced a weird stripe artifact that I couldn't get rid of (it is not that intrusive, but still), it also reproduced the colors less bright than in the actual picture. *grumble*
Preview:

( the image and a detail of the head in a larger size are behind the cut )

Because some people find the production process interesting, I decided to do a sort of "making of" post. If you'd just like to see the finished fanart, go here.
