Description

Temeraire: Iskierka's hatching
This illustrates Iskierka’s hatching. I hope she looks enough like a baby while still fitting the description that they look just like smaller versions of the big ones. But making the head long and lean like I normally do for dragons to make them look ferocious didn’t work for me for a baby dragon. The coloring didn’t turn out quite like I intended, and 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. I’ve also written some commentary on drawing this picture with scans and photos of the inbetween stages.
Media: pencil, fine liner pen with waterproof indian ink, acrylic paint, a bit of white conté chalk

Aww, you made a dragon look adorable while it's still a dragon. Great work on the body proportions, and the face, this is exactly what a hatchling should look like :D
