Armadillo Teapot

This is an armadillo inspired fantasy creature-teapot I made in a ceramic class in school about three years ago.I made a little matching sugar bowl also so they would be a tiny set.

When working with ceramics I always found it hard to imagine how it would look like once it would come out of the oven. When painting it all of the colours would look quite similiar, really pale and greyish so it was always a suprise to see the final outcome and how the colours had evolved. I miss those classes :(
