Eagle Owl #10
The other ear tufft shows up. I was wondering why I was getting different marks on this, you can see the darker marks on the top of the head on the left near the new tufft. Dull point of course, but didn't think about that until John suggested it. Duh makes sense since the scriber hasn't been sharpened since the last etching I did.
Doesn't really make a difference when printing, but really shows up here in the scan so will have to try to fix that in Photoshop or something.
