I spent most of today working on freelance stuff. However, while at the gym I saw a guy wearing a shirt with a whale on it, and I felt compelled all day to draw one myself. I limited my pallet to brown and white, and went at it when I really should have been going to bed.

Sorta uninspired, but I am over drawing whales until next time.

looks like he ate something that disagreed with him. :)

[goutwort]

Yeah, I don't know if I would want the diet of a sperm whale.

[shuraiya]

Whaaaaaaaale! :D

[goutwort]

No no, it's a whale.

[shuraiya]

Damn it.

he looks sleepy.

i should be asleep.

I suppose a really wide-awake-looking whale would be a terrifying.

The white bubbles on the tail and above the blowhole . . . spatterings of gouache? Or masking fluid?

He looks a bit hungover. Do whales see pink elephants, I wonder?

[goutwort]

It is all gouache. I have never really gotten into masking fluid. I don't like how it ruins brushes.

It would be really strange if whales and elephants were somehow aware of each other.

[chronographia]

Well, elephants can swim, though it is really more like glorified snorkling. They could meet that way?

He looks like he's either very tired or his stomach hurts. I like how you handled the shading on his side, it makes him seem so.. fishy. : )

[goutwort]

Man, I meant for the shading to make him look mammally.
