Miles Vorkosigan penguin

A friend of mine, one of the people who nudged me towards reading Lois McMaster Bujold's books, has been unwell lately.  She's also a penguin enthusiast.  So when I went to visit her last week, I brought her a little gift to try to cheer her up: a Miles Vorkosigan plush penguin.  (Considering how Miles feels about cold, there's some irony there, I suppose.)

This was the project for which I needed the etched buttons.

As I did with my pictures of the Barrayaran Emperor penguins, I modified the colours in the photos so the vegetation would be red-brown.
